From Zero to Conversational!
Hi, I'm Fan! I'm here to make Cantonese click for you!
I'm a native Hong Konger with over 2 years of experience teaching Cantonese to students from the US, Canada, Australia, Japan, the UK, Switzerland, and beyond.
I believe language learning shouldn't be about memorising lists. Every lesson I design is built around real conversations, Hong Kong culture, and your goals โ so you start speaking from day one.
"Making mistakes is part of the process โ the most important thing is to open your mouth and try. We'll get there together!"
"I've really enjoyed my Cantonese training with YuenFan. She is a patient and professional teacher whose pronunciation is very clear, which makes it much easier to follow and learn. She combines standard language with slang and local expressions, giving a more practical understanding of how Cantonese is really spoken. I would definitely recommend her to others."
"Really enjoying the lessons with YuenFan, her materials are excellent and she's really good at adapting to my pace and my specific learning needs."
"YuenFan is the best Cantonese tutor you could possibly find. She is very patient, supportive, and knowledgeable. My Cantonese level has improved significantly after learning with her for several months. I genuinely recommend her to every person who wants to learn Cantonese. 10/10"

Classic hits with Jyutping + English translation โ perfect for learners.
Cantonese has 9 tones (6 standard + 3 entering tones). Master these 6 first and you'll cover 90% of everyday speech.
๐ก Tip: All 6 tones use the same base syllable "si" โ only the pitch changes. Say them out loud!
Numbers are your first building block โ master these and you can already ask prices, tell time, and count!
๐ก Tip: "ๅ" (4) sounds like "death" in Cantonese โ many Hong Kong buildings skip the 4th floor!
