Through JKL Thinking, I bring together classroom practice, AI tools, and a community where teachers and other practitioners learn by trying things together.

About the book →Teaching background
Learning from individual students
I have tutored international-school students in English and humanities since 2017, working part-time until 2020. I build bilingual materials and use quiz results to identify misconceptions and revise lessons.
JKL Thinking, founded in Shenzhen in 2026, is where I develop this work as a learning designer.
