Echo Yue Zhang

I am passionate about making Chinese language learning effective and engaging. Besides teaching, I love traveling, cooking and drawing! I have taught both online and in-person, focusing on teaching Chinese as a foreign language in various educational settings, including corporate and international school environments. Originally a Chinese teacher, I have evolved into a learning partner, employing a teaching style focused on the shadowing method. This technique involves mimicking native speakers to enhance pronunciation and fluency. My unique approach is designed to help learners overcome the common plateau in spoken Chinese, a challenge she describes as "哑巴中文" or "dumb Chinese," where learners excel in all areas except speaking.
