Bio

I joined the department in 2010 and have developed and taught Chinese language courses at all levels and content courses on business language and culture in China, traditional Chinese poetry, literature and thoughts, Chinese ghost stories and culture, modern Chinese society, Chinese documentary films, perception of China through YouTube and TikTok, and Chinese mythology and animation creation.

My research interests include classical Chinese poetry, literati miscellanies, Chinese as a Foreign Language (CFL) pedagogy and technology enhanced learning. I co-edited/authored four books published by Peking University Press: Tradition and Transition: Teaching Chinese Culture Overseas, Living overseas: Cases, Strategies and Guidance for CFL teachers around the World, Cross-cultural Communication: Teaching Chinese in the Global Context and Tales of Teachers: Case Studies and Reflections from CFL Classrooms in North America. I am also the author of the bestselling children’s book series Luoluo ting’s Adventure in Ancient Chinese Mythology.
