Best Chinese teacher The teaching method emphasizes comprehensive inputs. The teacher speaks Chinese most of the time and uses fun, interesting stories to teach new vocabularies which the students can remember and recall easily.

Keren's classes are practical and fun Keren's classes are practical and fun. She mixes in just the right amount of input and output. Since I started taking her classes, I have noticed huge improvements in my ability to speak and understand Chinese. I always feel challenged in her class, but at the same time, we have a lot of fun. I highly recommend her. When I struggle with complicated sentence patterns, she repeats them back to me so I can hear what the proper response should be. Keren is very intentional about placing me in the right group where I can feel comfortable, yet her classes are rigorous. I'm so glad I found her.

Keren has been my Mandarin tutor for… Keren has been my Mandarin tutor for the past several months, and I’m very happy I found her. I’ve made huge progress learning with her methods. She is always patient and makes sure you understand the material. I always look forward to our lessons. I couldn’t imagine studying with anyone else. Thank you Keren!

When teaching, Keren listens and cares about you! Keren has a deep and thorough understanding of Comprehensible Input / TPRS. She’s the one who only needs to teach a student once and the student remembers her forever because of her fun and effective teaching style. Her sense of humor creates such an engaging vibe that students fully focus on the message she’s delivering, rather than trying to decode a different language. She cares about her students’ opinions and encourages them to clearly, and slowly, express themselves in the target language. Keren’s students have the sense of being seen and heard, rather than having to keep up with their teacher’s lessons that go by in a blur and feeling frustrated. As a comprehension based Chinese teacher myself, I’m so grateful that we have Keren in this field. She is a big player in spreading the word of Comprehensible Input / TPRS teaching. I look forward to seeing more and more language learners benefiting from her awesome teaching!

Brilliant Teacher, Fantastic Unique Style Keren is a fantastic teacher with her own unique ways of teaching (living up to her brand name perfectly)! She is super comfortable, speaks strong English and teaches you incredibly useful things for day to day life in China. I discovered Keren on YouTube and her intro video sold me immediately. She's a great person to have around and makes learning Mandarin genuinely fun. For me, this much more fun than just taking a Mandarin class and sitting with a textbook.
