TESTIMONIALS

Students

Luke has been an incredible teacher/tutor. My son (7 yrs.) and daughter (10 yrs.) have had so much fun learning Mandarin Chinese. He knows how to simplify the complicated and is great at creating a personalized curriculum plan that’s right for you. He uses a variety of learning tools including games, videos, and “real life” role playing techniques.

Luke’s patients for young ones is a treasure. He always takes the time to answer all of their questions, even if they are a bit off topic. One of my favorite skills is his attention to detail. He noticed my kids taking an interest in a Chinese chess game he had. Luke asked, “Do you think that is interesting? Would you like to learn how to play?” My kids replied with an enthusiastic “Yes!” So, he made a deal with them. The deal was if they tried real hard and learned all their new words really well, he would teach them how to play. My children have been so excited about having a chance to play; I don’t think they realize how hard they have worked or the fact they’ve had no intention of giving up. However, this parent has noticed!

When a teacher/tutor can make learning as fun as a game; you know you’ve made the right choice. Thank you Luke!

Luke Wang is a great teacher and tutor, we highly recommend him. My son had a wonderful experience working with him during the summer of 2016 as he was working to advance a level in Chinese. Luke's method of daily short homework assignments really helped my son implement the new vocabulary into each lesson. Having twice weekly lessons not only improved my son's speaking skills, but also confidence while speaking Chinese. Luke's fluency and accuracy in Mandarin allowed my son to develop full and accurate tonality. As I parent, I really appreciated his frequent communications with me, keeping me updated and informed about my son's progress. We could not have been happier.

We have had Luke tutor our son, Philip since 2010. Philip has gone from a ‘C’ to a consistent ‘A’ in Chinese!

Luke has done an amazing job of teaching Philip. His teaching style is one that incorporates motivation and persistent drilling. He meets with Philip once a week for two hours and converses in Chinese with him by phone nightly. They go over vocabulary, conversations and pronunciations.

Luke has helped Philip become disciplined, and has motivated him to become more fluent in Chinese. Luke has turned Philip around to becoming an excellent student in Chinese. His persistence, patience, discipline and nightly conversations have made Philip love Chinese again. Philip is now planning to study Chinese in college.
