Hi! nǐ hǎo
I'm Ya-Chuan Chang, you can also call me Jony! I am originally from Taipei, Taiwan.
Over the past several years, I've had the opportunity to teach in diverse settings—across universities, language centers, and multiple international programs—working with students of all ages and backgrounds.
My teaching style is interactive, student-centered, and culturally rich. I believe language learning should be joyful and meaningful—going beyond just grammar and vocabulary to include real-world communication and cultural understanding!
I've been living in the Netherlands for the past three years and have truly fallen in love with Utrecht.
That's why I want to create Mandarin Lab Utrecht, a space where learners can explore the Chinese language in a supportive, engaging, and personalized way.
Whether you're learning for travel, work, or personal growth, I'm here to help you reach your goals!
