Learn Chinese in NYC

I learn Chinese in NYC with Veronica Chou. I really appreciate her teaching. I find her a very patient and understanding teacher and she helps me feel comfortable making mistakes (essential to the process of learning). I have a lot of fun during our lessons, and she helps me learn vocabulary related to my work and personal interests. I highly recommend her!
