How online Cantonese lessons work

Every lesson is live and one-to-one on Google Meet, with a native Hong Kong tutor who builds each session around your goals. Apps teach you words. Group classes teach at the pace of the room. A tutor teaches you to hold a conversation, hear the tones and sound like Hong Kong.

Frequently asked questions

I’m often described by my students as softly-spoken, warm, and polite. I enjoy working with both introverts and extroverts alike, adapting my teaching to suit your personality and learning style. My goal is to create a comfortable and supportive environment where you feel confident and at ease as you learn.

You’ll begin speaking in your very first lesson. I’ll meet you where you are and build your speaking skills step by step, focusing on real, useful language that fits your goals.

All you need to bring is yourself, a positive mindset, and a readiness to learn. If you have your own materials that you’d like to use, feel free to bring them along. Otherwise, I’ll provide everything you need.

Online lessons are held via Google Meet. Once your payment is confirmed, you’ll receive a link right away. When it's time, just click the link and I'll meet you in our virtual classroom!

I’m happy to teach small groups of up to three students if you have friends or family you would like to learn with. Please feel free to reach out via email for more details and a special rate. At the moment, I only offer in-person sessions for workplace teams and organisations.

Yes, I offer a number of different workshops for London-based businesses, from language lessons to hands-on cultural experiences such as dumpling making. Sessions are tailored to suit your industry and scheduling needs, and can be delivered as one-off team-building events or as part of a broader learning initiative.  Please get in touch to discuss availability and pricing.

I primarily teach using Jyutping, but I can also use Yale if that’s what you prefer. To be honest, once you’re familiar with the sounds and tones of Cantonese, the choice of romanisation matters less. Both systems are widely respected, and at a certain point, your ability to speak and understand will be what truly counts.
