How Can I Help You?

When teaching, Wendy starts by thoroughly understanding the student’s level, needs, and learning goals, and then strengthens the student’s skills based on the true need.

In IELTS, TOEFL iBT course, she not only cares about test skills to improve scores but also focuses on the process of preparation, teaching useful vocabulary and sentence structures.

Breaking traditional-style memorization and copying methods, Wendy integrates technological tools (such as speech recognition or writing correction software) to help students from the new generation practice in a more effective way.

Who Am I?

At eighteen, I went to New Jersey, USA, to study by myself. After earning my Master’s degree in Computer Science and working locally for a year, I retured to Taiwan with extensive experience in American English.
I entered and worked at Microsoft Taiwan for about five years, where I integrated English with practical communication skills, and understood that “English is not just for tests but for life.”

To spread out this message and enhance my teaching skills to benefit more English learners, I then pursued studies at the Institute of English Education at National Chiao Tung University (now National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University) to provide students with more reliable and effective language learning methods.
