About Charis
Hi, I’m Charis! Growing up as a Filipino in Taiwan, I learned traditional Mandarin the same way locals did—through years of real-world immersion in school and daily life. This experience shaped not only my fluency in reading, writing, and speaking Mandarin but also my understanding of how to teach it effectively.
I specialize in traditional characters and Zhuyin (Bopomofo), tools that were key to my own language journey. Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to deepen your skills, I focus on practical, engaging lessons that meet you where you are. Learning Mandarin doesn’t have to be intimidating—it’s a skill you can build step by step, and I’m here to guide you through it.
