Let's do our best here. ✏️ We may identify writing assignments based on the progress and topic of the class - if you are up for it. **About Nars** **About Nars** 🦞 Taught both English and Chinese to people from all over the world over the years. 🦞 We can make progress and have fun. 🦞 I promise you will feel great speaking English the way you never think you can. 🦞 I have lived in Boston since 2011. 🦞 I didn't think moving to the US, studying, and working here was something possible because I didn't have the resource to do it. 🦞 Even though I didn't have much, I didn't give up either. 🦞 Ten years later now, I live in a city where it snows in the winter and I speak English 24/7 at home and at work. 🦞 Living in the US is NOT the awesome part of this journey - having achieved something that was close to impossible is. 🦞 I am a technical program manager/software project manager. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/narschang/) 🦞 I teach English and Mandarin because I am passionate about teaching and connecting to my students. 🦞 Being able to speak English better opens many doors for me, and I want you to have the same opportunities if this is what you are looking for. ** Class Etiquette** ☑️ English ONLY please. You can read or watch TV shows on your own, but you can't practice speaking English by yourself. ☑️ Let's make your money worth by speaking as mush English as possible. ☑️ If you need to cancel a class, please do your best and cancel the class 12 hours before it’s start time.
