Our Story
Yifan Mandarin was founded in 2002 in Hong Kong by Kate Zhou and partners, specializing in teaching Mandarin as a second language for children. Yifan aims to provide professional Mandarin learning options for Hong Kong International school students who do not have enough Mandarin exposure in daily life, but want to pursue rich Mandarin learning.
Kate’s family is cross cultural (Chinese & French). She was determined to raise her children trilingual in Hong Kong, with this motivation in mind, she created Yifan when her first child was born in 2002. Fast forward to 2021 her two children are 19Y & 15Y, and she is happy to say “mission completed!” As a language lover and professional teacher, Kate wants her company to help more children and parents to reach Yifan’s mission. |

‘Good Teacher’ - Yifan’s definition
Being a good teacher is not all about how much you teach in each class,
but how you interest your students so they are intrigued and are excited to learn.
