About me
Hello, I'm Johnny (Jiazhen). Based in Shenzhen—China's tech and global business hub—I help professionals use Chinese where it actually counts: meetings, emails, negotiations, and cross-border deals.
🎓 My background
MBA + CFA ESG Certificate + ACCA Business Accounting certification
4 years of online 1-on-1 teaching across global platforms, 2,400+ hours, 65 five-star reviews on LearnZone — and I keep everything structured, tracked, and results-focused.
Fluent English + conversational Japanese (daily communication level)
💼 What we work on
Business Chinese, not textbook Chinese — register-switching (daily → professional), meeting interjections, email diplomacy, indirect refusals & "face-saving" phrasing
Finance / ESG vocabulary in context — annual reports, sustainability disclosures, KPI discussions; we learn terms inside real documents
For Japanese teams & China-facing roles — bridging 建前/本音 ↔ 面子/关系 dynamics, so nothing gets "lost in politeness"
📍 How a lesson runs
Each session is built around a real scenario you faced (or will face) this week: we audit an email thread / rehearse a meeting opener / rebuild a reply. You leave with phrases you can reuse Monday morning. For structured beginners, the roadmap is designed so you gain workplace conversational confidence in roughly 15–20 focused hours—then we keep leveling up.

Jiazhen is a great teacher! He does a great job adapting the lessons to the needs of the student. His knowledge of Chinese as well as the culture in China makes each lesson engaging. I enjoyed both the structured lessons as well as the more conversational lessons and appreciate his patience in going over repeated material. He also does a good job checking in periodically to ensure the difficulty is okay and is flexible in his approach. I look forward to future lessons with Jiazhen.

Jiazhen was a great tutor for the short time that I had him. He gave me numerous chances to show up and be there even when I was having a rough time. He will ask if you understand and if you need to go at a different pace, please consider having him as a tutor.

My specialties
Business Chinese
For people who need Chinese where decisions happen: meetings, emails, negotiations, client calls, and reporting/ESG contexts—not just daily conversation.What we do in classUpgrade everyday expressions into the professional register (polite pushback, agenda control, indirect refusals, follow-up minutes)Work with real-world materials: annual/ESG report excerpts, KPI tables, email threads, meeting notes—so vocabulary lives in your actual workflowBridge industry logic + communication strategy: how to state numbers, frame risks, align stakeholders, and sound reliable (especially in cross-border / Japanese-company settings)Background: MBA + CFA ESG Certificate + ACCA. 4-year online 1-on-1, 2,400+ hours, 65★ on LearnZone. Fluent English; Japanese available for Japan-team clients.Note: this is a language & communication course, not financial advice / not document drafting for your firm.Trial lesson: bring one recent email / WeChat message / meeting moment you wish had gone smoother. We’ll rewrite it together and leave you with phrases you can reuse Monday morning.
Simplified Chinese
For professionals working with mainland counterparts: we focus on formal email phrasing, contract-friendly wording, notice/document formatting, and the register habits (politeness markers, indirect refusal, consistent terminology) that make your written Chinese look reliable in office use. Character recognition is assumed; we don’t drill stroke order or “simplified vs traditional” theory—every minute is spent on output you send at work.
