Class Experience

We will read “Journey to the West” through this classical reading class.
“journey to the West” is one of the Four Great Classical Novels in the history of Chinese literature. Almost every person in China starts his classical reading from this book.
I chose the picture book to introduce this famous novel to intermediate level students. We will practice students listening, speaking and reading skills during this class. I will also provide quizlet, bingobaker and a lots of interesting activities to help students improve their Chinese language acquisition.
We will let our students prepare the reading reflection and presentations after the detailed reading and analysis. Following the famous Broom’s Texonomy, students will find a appropriate question from a special “choice board” to design and organize a wonderful discussion or debate during this classical reading class.

Teacher expertise and credentials

My name is Yuping Zeng. I am Chinese teacher .I live in LA.  I am a mother of two boys. I like watching movies, going to the beach, and hiking. In my spare time, I do craft and knitting and listen to music too.
My strengths are language teaching and short story writing. I taught Russian for 17 years. I taught Chinese to foreign students since 2003. I taught both English and Chinese in America. My students are a diverse group of people, with widely varying ages and skill levels. I have attention to detail. I am good at working along with others. I have a talent(facility) for language acquisition. I have a good instinct for learning and applying the language I have learned.
Here are the classes I taught before and teach now:
Chinese language for beginners, intermediate and advanced courses.
AP Chinese Test preparation and SATII Chinese preparation courses.
Chinese calligraphy courses.
Chinese cooking and language.
Travel to China without leaving America(Chinese history ,geography and culture)
From picture books to the Chinese Classic.
I have a PhD in Russian literature. I am studying TESOL in APU recently.
I loving teaching. I think that I should prepare very detailed for the input part of language teaching in order to encourage and lead students to output what they comprehend and learn through this training.
My students and I are always happy the rewrite the textbooks we have learned. It is a real blessing when we realize those materials exist just for improvement of our language proficiency.
