I majored in Chinese Studies and graduated with distinction in the subject. I was also fortunate enough to visit China twice through a partnership programme with Sun Yat-Sen University. There I attended intensive Mandarin lectures and gained experience using the language practically.

I spent close to 3 years living in Beijing, China. I spent half of that time studying Chinese at Tsinghua University (Arguably the best university in China) and achieved multiple distinctions in my course. I have a very standard Chinese accent.
