Let’s Mandarin with Milla

30/12/2025

When words take shape, language becomes personal.

Through concrete poetry, students explored Mandarin with creativity, emotion, and care.

Here, Chinese isn’t about right or wrong — it’s about meaning, imagination, and voice.

當中文不只是寫在橫線上，而是住進一個形狀裡。

在這堂「中文圖像詩」課中，
學生先想「我想畫什麼」，
再慢慢思考：我要用哪些中文字，說出我的感覺？

字，變成了雲☁️、樹🌲、車🚗、小熊貓🐼和小貓🐱。中文，也成了一種可以被看見、被感受的語言。

✨ If you’re learning Chinese and want it to feel fun, not frightening — you’re in the right place.

Nǐhǎo, I am Milla 👋
A Taiwanese Chinese teacher with 10+ years of experience, taught in the US, now teaching at a UK independent school in London 🇬🇧

I love turning Chinese into something you can feel and use — through hands-on activities, creative tasks, and stories from my backpacking travels 🌍✂️

As a teacher from Taiwan, I enjoy sharing both the language and the culture behind it.

Here, we learn Chinese with curiosity, confidence, and a bit of fun. 🙌

✨What do I do during the school holidays?

Training AI at home to create simple Chinese GCSE conjunction examples,
using visuals and clear sentence structures to support understanding and confident use.

These will go on the classroom noticeboard next week 📌
as a visual reference to support students’ writing.
