Hi, I’m Hsiao-Yun Shotwell, also called Sara. I have a B.A. in Chinese Literature and a Master’s degree in TESOL, and have been teaching Chinese in the United States since 2006. I enjoy working with learners of all ages, and have helped the Oregon Department of Education with foreign language textbook adoption criteria for K-12 schools. Currently, I am the program and curriculum coordinator for the University of Portland’s Chinese Department. I like to employ task-based and project-based activities in class so that students can apply skills in authentic situations. I’m excited to share my passion for Chinese and look forward to seeing you soon!
My name is Xinyi Liu, but people often call me Sara. I’m from the southwestern Chinese city of Kunming, and I earned a B.A. in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language from Yunnan University. Afterwards I did my student teaching at Honghe University, where for two years I instructed international students ages 6 through 45. I also taught Mandarin at Rachineebunana High School in Thailand.
In 2012, I came to the U.S, where I have since been employed as a Mandarin Chinese teacher for Maryland’s Howard County Public School System. Teaching is my passion, so I’m proud to say that in 2018 I received my Master’s of Science in Advanced Teaching and Learning from National University in San Diego. I strive to inspire students with activities that are both instructive and fun, and I’m looking forward to starting this journey with you.

Hi! My name is Joyce Zhao. I was a student of Northeast Normal University, spent my last two years of college at Portland State University, and graduated with two Bachelor’s degrees, one in English and one in Psychology. I do not only help students gain language skills, but also support them in realizing their potential and in broadening their view of the world. Learning a second language is not easy, especially Chinese—but don’t worry, I am here for you. I look forward to teaching you, and hope my work in arts and culture can make you love Chinese.

Being a teacher is empowering and fulfilling, particularly teaching languages, as this helps students grow into well-rounded individuals. I place a special emphasis on speaking ability, and am eager to put in the work to make students successful in language learning. Can’t wait to see you in class!
