Xi Li

Hello, I'm Ms. Li, or you can call me Li Laoshi. I moved to the U.S. nine years ago to pursue graduate studies at the University of Maryland. Since then, I have been teaching Mandarin at all levels for over seven years. In my free time, I love hiking and skiing, which makes living in this area especially enjoyable for me. I am so excited for this course and meeting everyone!
