Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi, This is Miss Xiang. My students like to call me Miss Feifei or 菲菲老师 Feifei Laoshi.
I was born in China, and Chinese Mandarin is my mother language. I lived in Beijing for my college and worked for more than 10 years before moving to the USA. Now I am an Oregon State-certified preschool teacher. I also run my own K-5 grade Mandarin afterschool program.
I hold a Bachelor of Music Production and enjoy bringing music into my classroom. During my outschool "Sing along Mandarin cycle time," I will strum my Ukulele, play my keyboard, press my desk bells set, and sing Chinese songs with my students. I will guide my students to find the rhythm and tone of Mandarin through the music's rhythm.
I am also fostering rats for our local small animal rescues. So in my "come talk and play with rat" lesson, I will introduce fancy rats(pet rats) to our students, we will learn Mandarin through this incredible creature, and I will show live rats (sometimes even newborn rats) to my students.
I have 3 boys. They are 3,6,8 years old now. I know how important to provide engaging learning environments for young learners. My tutoring style is high-energy, fun, casual, patient, and peer-like.
Besides my work, I like hiking with my family and friends. I like to go camping and sleep in my 1950s airstream.
I'd like to share many songs, stories, and ideas with my students, So please follow me on outschool. And I hope to see the kids in my lessons soon!
Love,
Miss Feifei
