Mengyao obtained a Bachelor degree in Teaching Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages (TCSOL) from China. She is also currently studying to receive her Masters degree in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL) with hopes to integrate and apply the systematic multi-linguistic knowledge of English and Chinese in teaching scenarios. Mengyao’s specialities lie in teaching Chinese literature as well as expressing the necessary skills required to teach Mandarin. As most students learning Chinese come from English-speaking backgrounds, Mengyao’s postgraduate studies allow her is to be able to direct and articulate her Chinese teaching in both effective and efficient ways.
