“Even after self-studying Taiwanese Mandarin for 11 years, I still learn a lot in Miss Lin’s level up course. It helps me to learn new expressions, new words and udnerstand Taiwanese people more. 學海無涯! ”

“I’m so glad I had the chance to participate in the Level Up Complete program. Not only was the course content super educational and practical, covering a variety of topics, especially those related to current events or Taiwanese culture, it was also thoroughly entertaining with all the video content. The transcripts for each lesson and key vocab lists also made it easy to “collect” any new words for future use in my study notecards. I particularly like how 林老師 accompanied a brief quiz with each unit as a low-stakes way to test retention as well as practice reading.
The live Zoom sessions with 林老師 along the way were also super helpful for going deeper on the topics, putting to work live the vocabulary I learned, and connecting with other students. With all the preparation she put into each session to ensure a productive conversation with just the right amount of structure, it’s clear as day how much 林老師 truly wants her students to thrive.”

"I found the course content and subject matter quite comprehensive and immediately applicable with respect to most of the vocabulary. Lots of real-world dialogs. I am glad to have stumbled across it as it has re-invigorated my studies, even beyond the course.
The interactive dialogs are the most helpful to improve my speaking ability. In particular those with your sister, travel companions/friends, your dad, etc. I listen to them so often that I just mimic their 'melody'. Mostly, I pause-repeat and speak out loud to mimic sections at a time. "

“I've been going through your Level Up Complete Program and listening to your podcasts - both of which have been really helpful, so thank you so much for your advice! It's helped me have some really interesting discussions with my mom :)
Thank you so much Miss Lin!! 妳真的幫助我很多。It’s so difficult to find Taiwanese mandarin courses that teach more advanced vocabulary that is actually helpful for heritage speakers, much less ones that also include Taiwanese culture and news! You’ve helped me feel more connected to my Taiwanese culture.
我真的非常非常感激!!”

“Stuck at a pre-intermediate level, I have been unable to bring my Chinese to the next level until I found Miss Lin.”
Sébastian (Master Spoken Chinese: Taiwanese Mandarin Conversation Training)
“Miss Lin creates online content using everday Taiwanese Mandarin Chinese. It’s engaging and interesting. It really helps you to learn language that you can use every day in Taiwan.”
