Hi! I’m Yiyi, also known as 11 :)

I’m the founder of ClearTalk Mandarin and a professional Chinese teacher with more than 6,000 hours of experience in Chinese teaching and teacher training. Before becoming an independent online teacher, I taught Chinese language education at a university.

I specialize in practical Chinese, travel Chinese, business Chinese, speaking, pronunciation, and Chinese characters. I also work with heritage Chinese adults who want to strengthen their speaking and overall Chinese ability.

Having traveled to more than 50 countries, I especially enjoy helping learners use Chinese in real-life situations—from everyday conversations and traveling in China to communicating at work.

I believe Chinese should be something you can actually use, not just something you study. My goal is to help you understand Chinese more clearly, speak with confidence, and bring the language into your real life.

Frequently asked questions

A few things students often ask.

Clear answers before you choose a teacher or learning plan.

What if I’m not sure about my Chinese level?

That’s completely fine. Select “Not sure” in the consultation form. During the free 20-minute consultation, we’ll learn about your background and help identify a suitable starting point.

Do I need to purchase 10 lessons?

No. Private 1-to-1 students can choose a single lesson, a 5-lesson package with 5% off, or a 10-lesson package with 10% off. Private 1-to-2 learning is available in 5- or 10-lesson packages after a partner match is confirmed.

How does the 1-to-2 matching service work?

Tell us that you’re interested in learning with a partner. We’ll look for another learner with a similar Chinese level, learning goal, and compatible schedule. You may also join with your own friend, partner, sibling, or classmate.

What happens if ClearTalk cannot find a suitable partner?

You can wait for a future match or continue with a private 1-to-1 option. You will not be charged for a 1-to-2 package until a suitable match has been confirmed.

Can I book one 1-to-2 lesson before buying a package?

Single lessons are currently available for private 1-to-1 learning only. The 1-to-2 format requires a confirmed match and a 5- or 10-lesson package so both learners can follow a consistent schedule and learning plan.

What happens during the free 20-minute consultation?

We’ll discuss your Chinese level, learning goals, schedule, preferred lesson format, and budget. After the conversation, we’ll recommend a suitable course and teacher. It is a pre-course consultation, not a formal trial lesson, and there is no obligation to purchase.
