About Rianne
Every GCSE student I've taught has finished above their predicted grade.
I'm from Hong Kong — I lived there 15 years before moving to the UK — and I'm a native speaker of Cantonese, Mandarin and English. I've been tutoring for three years, and I teach Hong Kong Cantonese with traditional characters, which is what people in Hong Kong actually speak and write.
GCSE and HSK Mandarin is where most of my students are. I work through the exam board's spec with them, but I spend just as much time on the parts that don't show up in a mark scheme — the confidence to actually speak, and knowing what the examiner is looking for.
Cantonese adults come to me for all sorts of reasons: to talk with a partner's Hong Kong family, because their parents are from Hong Kong and they never learned properly, for a trip, or simply because they love the language. Complete beginners are genuinely welcome. One of my students has been with me for three years now.
I also help with English and homework support for years 1–10.
I study Psychology at the University of Bath, which shapes how I teach — I'm interested in where someone gets stuck and why, not just in getting through the material.

Chinese has a reputation for being impossible. In my experience the tones are the only genuinely hard part, and most people get further than they expected once someone shows them the pattern.
How I work. I prepare material for every lesson and give you written notes with step-by-step grammar progression, so you can review between sessions rather than starting from scratch each week. If there's something specific you want to cover, tell me and I'll build the lesson around it.
GCSE and HSK Mandarin. Exam technique, character writing, listening and reading strategy, sentence and paragraph structure — targeted at whichever areas are actually costing marks. I'll be honest with you and your parents about where things stand and what needs work.
Cantonese. Structured grammar with clear progression, taught in Hong Kong Cantonese and traditional characters. We move between English and Cantonese at whatever pace suits you, so you're never lost. Whether you want to hold a conversation with your partner's family, order food in Hong Kong, or just enjoy learning it, we'll build the route to that.
The first lesson is about working out where you're starting from and what you actually want, then agreeing a plan. No pressure to have it figured out beforehand — most people don't.
I'm patient, I don't mind repeating things, and I'd much rather you asked the "silly" question than sat quietly not understanding.

Perfect! Rianne was amazing with our son - learning Cantonese! Can not recommend her enough.
Perfect! I find Rianne is a very diligent teacher, she goes into detail with explaining the words and prepares materials to take you through.
Perfect! Rianne has helped me learn a speech in Cantonese for my wedding.
I do not speak Cantonese at all, beyond a few basic words and phrases - so this is a daunting task.
Rianne has been kind, thoughtful and patient. She has thoroughly explained what each part of my speech would translate to, and has made me feel confident in the words I will be saying, their tonality and the feeling behind them.
She is a very good tutor, and I appreciate her help greatly.
Thanks Rianne!Perfect! Rianne is a great tutor, I would recommend if you are trying to learn Cantonese. She makes sure you understand what she is teaching and always tries to answer your questions. my goal was to become able to speak conversationally and Rianne has given me what I need to accomplish that, just need some more practice. 10/10 would recommend!
Perfect! Rianne is simply a great tutor. Our brief to her was to support our son with his GCSE Mandarin homework, but she has proven to be a mentor and a coach too. It is clear she wants to her students to reach their full potential.
Perfect! she is friendly its a joy for me to have her as a tutor i would recommend her to others
Perfect! Thank you Rianne for helping me feel more confident in my trip to Hong Kong. In just 2 short sessions I feel much more prepared for my trip thanks to her great skills and friendly patience :)

Her native fluency and outstanding teaching ability creates a fun learning experience. she customises her course to each student needs to ensure optimal progress. Therefore, I do recommend Rianne as an excellent Cantonese tutor.
Rianne is always looking to help you improvd in things you fall short of and commends you for your achievements. She is willing to challenge you to encourage growth.
Rianne is an extremely patient, considerate and hardworking tutor, who ensures that her lessons are catered specifically towards her students in accordance to their individual wants and needs. Given the above, and the personal experience I’ve had with Rianne’s teaching style, I highly recommend Rianne as a potential piano tutor.
She is really friendly and have a great patience towards everyone. And I know she has good skills and passion on doing it. I believe she will definitely be a good tutor of your kids!
As one of Rianne’s friend I think she is a trustworthy tutor because she is a very kind and helpful person. She is always willing to help and teaches anything you don’t understand. She is a great piano player and from playing with her she is an excellent teacher.
