妈妈：”儿子，你打小喜欢打人，长大了天天打电话，打游戏。现在打起精神，把房间打扫一下，吃碗打卤面，然后打个车，去学校打球。别跟我打太极啊，要不然，我要向你爸爸打小报告了！“
儿子：”打住吧，妈妈！你”打“了11次了。”
宋老师：看得懂这些“打”吗？没打脸吧？没打喷嚏吧？打算好好学中文了吧？

As a professional Mandarin instructor with almost two decades worth of teaching experience in American schools, I came to recognize how language-learning in a school setting is only one step in the long journey of acquiring a foreign language. I felt a need and urge to bring my profession beyond school, and I believe professional teaching should be accessible to anyone at any point in their life. It is with this belief that I founded MAD Mandarin LLC in 2018 with the goal to incorporate the latest teaching methods with my own innovative approach of Mindful-Active-Dynamic to positively achieve the best language-learning results.
