Oakwood Elementary School would like to welcome Ms. Yan starting next school year!
Ms. Yan will be our 2nd Grade Chinese DLI teacher.
Ms. Yan is from Yangzhou, the City of gardens in Jiangsu Province, China and received her degree from Jiangsu Normal University.
Ms. Yan has been teaching for 12 years and she was most recently at Meiling Elementary School West Campus.
Ms. Yan loves to go swimming, reading, traveling, and playing all kinds of fun games with her daughter.
Ms. Yan would like to share with the Oakwood Community that over the past 12 years, she has worked as a Chinese teacher both in China and the United States. She is a firm believer in immersion education. Through scientific research and her own experiences raising her daughter, Ms. Yan has come to believe that starting foreign language learning at a young age is crucial for building a strong foundation and developing a lifelong interest in the language. As an immersion teacher, Ms. Yan has the opportunity to not only teach Chinese language and culture, but also to instill a love of learning and curiosity about the world in her students. Ms. Yan takes great pride in being a Chinese teacher at Oakwood and making a positive impact on all her students’ lives by equipping them with the tools to become intercultural ambassadors in the future.
Welcome Ms. Yan to the Oakwood Family!
