I guess it should be "in Chinese" insted of "of Chinese", so that the sentence would make any sense.

Thanks, changed.

I thought "my Chinese teacher" could be ambiguous (i.e., my teacher who came from China, rather than the one who teaches me Chinese), so I tried to make it less ambiguous by using "of". I guess the ambiguity will inevitably remain.
