A short guide before you decide.

Private 1-on-1

I need it built around my life.
  • For specific goals — or if group classes left you behind
  • A quiet, personalised, stress-free space to build real confidence
  • Every lesson shaped around your schedule, not a fixed syllabus
Recommended if · group classes left you behind, or speaking in front of others is what holds you back

Back to School

I want to finally start properly and make real progress this autumn.
  • Four weeks, one clear finish line — for complete beginners
  • Handle the daily stuff: ordering, getting around, small talk
  • Structure, deadlines, and peers to keep you moving
Recommended if · you want visible progress in four weeks

Structured Group

I want steady, structured, ongoing progress.
  • For learners who want to get genuinely good, not just get by
  • Learn the patterns behind the language, not memorised lines
  • Cohorts start monthly — join whenever you're ready
Recommended if · you’ve picked up phrases here and there, and want them to finally connect into real sentences

In Their Words.

“Thank you for the lessons. I really appreciate your passion, commitment, and encouragement. Your teaching material is challenging in the best way, it pushes you to grow. I’ll certainly continue when I’m back in Hong Kong.”
— J.H. · Private student
“We really love Rose's teaching. Every lesson, we walk away feeling like we've actually learned something. You can tell she cares about whether we understand, not just whether she's covered the material.”
— H.H. · Beginner student
“I’ve tried many teachers before, but Rose is honestly the best one I’ve learned with. She explains everything point by point and makes sure you truly understand before moving on. Her teaching style is very patient, clear, and comfortable, and she goes with you step by step without pressure. Thanks to her, learning became much easier to understand and more enjoyable for me 🌟👏”
— A.H. · Private student
“我很喜欢Rosy的课,她上课讲解很细致,又延伸很多内容,使我学习进步很大。整体来说我非常喜欢课程设计,上课节奏刚刚好。对我来说,声调和发音、耶鲁拼音,以及普通话与广东话的区别对我最有帮助。现在在日常生活中说广东话多了很多信心。”

What’s in every class.

No matter which format you choose, every course includes the full method.

01

Original Materials

Every worksheet, dialogue and drill is written and designed by me, drawing on the Cantonese spoken in Hong Kong today and tailored to your level and daily life.

02

Yale Romanisation

Tone marks sit directly on the vowel, giving you a clear visual guide to pitch, so you can pronounce accurately from your very first lesson.

03

Audio Recaps

A full recording after every class, so tone and rhythm stay with you between lessons, on the MTR, at the gym, or wherever you have five minutes.

04

Structured Levels

A clear roadmap from foundation to confident everyday conversation — ten classes to a level. You always know what comes next.

Good questions.

Do you teach in Yale Romanisation or Jyutping Romanisation?

We teach using the Yale Romanisation system with tone marks, a system developed at Yale University specifically for English-speaking learners of Cantonese. Each mark indicates how your voice should move (ā level, á rising, à falling), so you can read a tone and say it correctly in the same moment, with no numbers to memorise.

It is also a natural fit for Mandarin speakers, as the tone marks follow the same visual logic as Pinyin's.

I'm shy about speaking. Will I actually make progress?

Absolutely. Most of our adult students arrive feeling anxious about "saying the wrong tone or words." Our small group classes and 1-on-1 environments are built to be low-pressure, supportive, and judgment-free. You will be speaking out loud in your very first session.

Do you teach Mandarin speakers?

Absolutely. I teach many Mandarin speakers and I know the common sticking points. My lessons are shaped around those challenges, so you can build clear pronunciation and speak with confidence. Book a free chat and tell me your goals.

I don't know which programme I should enrol in. What should I do?

Book a free 20-minute Zoom chat. We'll talk through your goals and current level, and I'll recommend the programme that fits you. No pressure to commit. If you'd like to experience a lesson first, I can arrange a trial lesson afterwards. Book a Free Chat →

What is the trial class like?

A relaxed one-to-one lesson (HKD 300) where you build a solid foundation in Yale and the tones. You'll get a real feeling for the teaching method, so you can decide whether it's right for you before committing to a full programme.

How long until I can actually hold a conversation?

Sooner than you'd think. After one intensive course, most students can already build and speak simple, short sentences, enough for ordering, getting around, and everyday small talk with confidence. Learn about our course programmes →

Where are Cantonese lessons held?
