  2. About Lee laoshi • This is my fourth year at Yinghua as a third grade teacher, and I had 8-year teaching experience in other schools in Taiwan before I joined Yinghua Academy. I graduated from the MA program of Foreign and Second Language Education in the Ohio State University in 2011 and moved to Minnesota afterwards. I am so excited for this year and I know it is going to be a great time for you, your child and myself.
