Hi, I’m Mavis! If you want to learn Mandarin the Taiwanese way and explore modern Taiwanese culture, you’re in the right place. 💡

I grew up in Taiwan until age 13, moved to the US, and later studied abroad in Japan. Because I’ve learned multiple languages myself, I know the gap between textbook drills and the lively, real‑world conversations we actually have every day.
