Chinese Faculty & Staff



Monica Chen
Head Teacher
Monica Chen

Miss Chen earned her bachelor of arts degree in English at Zhongshan University in 1999. Shortly after graduation, she joined the faculty of YuDa and quickly became an impressively positive and powerful force at the school through her innate talent for working with and teaching children.

As a career educator, Monica is particularly astute at adjusting just the right amount of English usage with her young learners, so that they are neither overwhelmed nor under-stimulated. The foreign faculty who acquire the graduates of Miss Chen's classes know that their jobs will be considerably easier because their students have had the benefit of acquiring a foundation in English from one of the best Chinese English teachers on Hainan Island.



Miranda Feng

Miranda Feng

Miss Feng earned her bachelor of arts degree in English at the Hunan Engineering Institute in 2005, and, the following year, joined the teaching faculty at YuDa in our Young Learner's Program.

In her classes, Miranda emphasizes listening and speaking skills, and uses everyday conversation to illustrate and teach the proper use of grammar. She makes full use of body language and games as an easy way for the students to practice and master what they have learned. Miss Feng is particularly talented at capitalizing on common English usage in her students' natural environment as a springboard for engaging them in useful, everyday conversations. Owing to her wonderful sense of humor and warm, inviting style, Miss Feng is adored by all of her young students.


Sebrina Wang

Sebrina Wang

Miss Wang received her bachelor's degree from Beijing International Study University in 2006 and passed the TEM-8 (the highest level of the Test for English Majors) around the same time.

While still a university student, Sebrina accepted a part-time job as an English teacher at a private English training school and discovered how much she truly enjoyed teaching.

Sebrina joined the faculty of Hainan YuDa in January 2009 and combines her professional knowledge of English with her experience as a student teacher to inspire and motivate her young students.



Sheila Zhang

Sheila Zhang

Miss Zhang graduated from Shaanxi Normal University in 2008 with a bachelor's degree in English. All her life, she had dreamt of becoming a teacher and her studies at Shaanxi Normal University turned that dream into a reality.

Sheila enjoys being a teacher because it allows her to learn something new every day and she finds herself rejuvenated by the laughter of her students.

Miss Zhang joined the faculty of Hainan YuDa in 2008 and often comments how she feels both supported and inspired by the excellent team of both foreign and local teachers she has the pleasure of working with. Her love of teaching was eminently clear from day one and she quickly gained a reputation for her patience with and enthusiastic manner that she engages her young students.


Betty Zheng

Betty Zhang

Miss Zheng earned her bachelor of arts degree in English at Hubei University in 2002, and joined the team at YuDa the following year.

Betty has outstanding people skills, and, because of this, often serves as the liaison between the school's foreign faculty and their students' parents when she is not busy teaching herself. If you receive a call on behalf of the school, most likely you will be speaking with Betty Zheng.

Betty has a warm and inviting personality, and is very gifted at engaging her young students in a variety of useful, everyday English conversations with a sense of humor that never quits.




Mary Wu
Executive Secretary
Mary Wu

Miss Wu earned her bachelor of arts degree in English at the Hunan Tao Yuan Normal University in 1992.

Mary boasts over ten years of foreign language school management experience and has a very practical and efficient way of getting the job done. Her responsibilities are to assist the foreign and Chinese faculty, and to ensure the safety of our students before and after class, especially during the breaks. She also serves as a liaison between the foreign faculty and their students' parents so that the parents can learn about their children's overall performance, including academic progress, attendance and behavior.

In addition to all her other responsibilities, Miss Wu also serves as the school's foreign affairs officer and has become an indispensable part of ensuring that the school's foreign faculty have as much of a problem-free existence in China as humanly possible. She is well-regarded and highly respected for her professionalism, dedication and genuine concern for YuDa's teachers and students.
