On today’s episode, I speak to Sara Jaaksola, A Ph.D. researcher and Chinese teacher originally from Finland


Sara first moved to China in 2010 to study Mandarin, before deciding to settle there long-term.


After working as a Chinese teacher for several years, she recently embarked on A Ph.D. program, researching Mandarin learners’ motivations for studying the language.


Sara has loads of interesting insights from living, studying, and teaching in China for over ten years, as well as some great tips on staying motivated throughout the learning process that we can all learn from!
