Hi all!
My first name is French, my last name is German, but my passport says I’m Dutch. No wonder students are so confused when I tell them my name: Chantal Mülders. Luckily, they can also call me XiangTao (or fragrant peach, although I’m neither very fragrant or peachy).
I’m in China since July 2007, arriving here right after I graduated Radboud University Nijmegen (the Netherlands) with a master’s in Linguistics. I have a special interest in how people learn a foreign language, sign language, and the US. At TKK, I teach English writing to the sophomore English majors. I love writing, reading, foreign cultures, and travelling.
