Beginner level teacher
Lily Li
3+ years teaching
The beginner specialist: creative, and good at making the first weeks stick.
Lily teaches beginners, which is a skill of its own — three years of it, with methods built to make the basics easy to hold on to. She holds the CTCSOL certificate.
Beginners are where a lot of people stop, usually in the second or third week when the tones refuse to make sense. Her classes are built around getting through that week.
