Hello, I'm Selvi

Founder of TheBusinessChinese.com

I was born and raised in the culturally rich and diverse environment of Malaysia, where multilingualism is a way of life. Fluent in English, Bahasa Melayu, Chinese, and Tamil, I naturally developed a strong foundation in multiple languages.

My educational journey took place in a Chinese-medium school, where I completed twelve years of primary and secondary education. This early and immersive exposure to the language, alongside my Chinese peers, allowed me to develop a deep understanding of Mandarin from a young age.

As an Indian student in a Chinese school, I personally experienced the challenges faced by non-native speakers. This unique perspective enables me to understand the difficulties learners encounter and to provide effective, tailored guidance in their Chinese language learning journey. Rest assured—you are in good hands.

The ability to communicate in multiple languages is invaluable—it opens doors to new friendships, professional opportunities, and business growth. I have witnessed firsthand how language proficiency enhances both personal and professional interactions.

Let’s embark on this learning journey together!
