Mandarin Chinese courses: Beginner - Intermediate - AdvancedWith a master's degree in Sinology (KULeuven, 2015), years of professional experience in the field and 6 years of experience in the Chinese Minor bachelor programme and evening courses at VUB, I'm confident that my courses offer an efficient and comprehensive path to Chinese language proficiency.
This class provides tailor-made Chinese language courses for any age. By default, the course focusses on oral communication (listening and speaking skills) with a large amount of interaction. Reading and writing is available (and recommended), but optional. As a non-native speaker, I know what it is to learn Chinese at a later age.
Textbooks, workbook exercises and additional character writing exercises are included in the price.

Achieve Real Vietnamese Fluency in Just 2 Months – with a Native Speaker (5+ Years Experience, Proven Results, Tailored for You)Speak Vietnamese Fluently in Just 2 Months!
Hi! I'm Thương, a Vietnamese teacher from Hanoi – the heart of Vietnam's culture.
I'm a patient, cheerful, friendly tutor who is passionate about helping international learners speak Vietnamese naturally and confidently.
In my lessons, I use real-life stories and everyday conversations to help you not only improve your Vietnamese, but also understand the culture behind the language. Whether you're focusing on grammar or communication, I will always tailor the lessons to what you need most — so that you can see fast and meaningful progress.
Whether you are:
✅ A complete beginner starting your Vietnamese journey
✅ Planning a trip to Vietnam and want to speak like a local
✅ Working or doing business in Vietnam and seeking deeper connections
✅ Moving to Vietnam to live with your loved ones
✅ Or simply fascinated by the Vietnamese language and culture
— I have a personalized roadmap just for you.
I’ve worked with students from Japan, South Korea, the U.S., Germany, China, and more – helping them not only master the Vietnamese language but also deeply understand the culture and people of Vietnam.
I teach in the Northern Vietnamese accent (Hanoi dialect). I also speak English (TOEIC 800+) and Japanese (JLPT N2), which allows me to explain difficult concepts in an easy and understandable way.
Outside of teaching, I love traveling, exploring, and taking international friends to discover local food, cultural sites, and hidden gems around Hanoi.
I hold a professional certificate in Teaching Vietnamese as a Foreign Language. With over 5 years of experience, I have taught students of all levels – from absolute beginners to advanced learners aiming to use Vietnamese for work and daily life.
What I offer:
Vietnamese for everyday communication
Vietnamese for travelers
Vietnamese for work and business
Correct pronunciation with the Northern accent
Vietnamese culture, customs, and norms
Focused skills practice: speaking, listening, reading, writing
I also hold an International Tour Guide License, so if you're planning to visit Vietnam, I can guide you on amazing journeys across the country – from North to South.
And when you’re in Hanoi, we can even study together offline at some chill cafés or beautiful cultural spots in the city – learning in the most fun and authentic way possible!
Do you find Vietnamese tones hard to remember?
Is the grammar too flexible and confusing?
Maybe you’ve studied for a while, but still can’t speak naturally?
Or you feel like Vietnamese is dry and difficult to enjoy?
You might have thought: “Why is Vietnamese so hard...?”
You’ve been there, right?
👉 I totally understand – many of my students have felt the same way at first.
But don’t worry! With the right approach, Vietnamese can actually be fun, clear, and full of life. 🌱I’ll help you learn with simple, practical, and interactive lessons that match your pace and interests.
Whether you want to speak confidently while traveling, understand your Vietnamese partner better, or simply explore this beautiful language and culture — I’m here to guide you.
Together, we’ll turn confusion into clarity, and fear into confidence. 💪
Let’s make Vietnamese learning an enjoyable journey you’ll love!
👉 Don’t wait any longer – apply now and let’s start your Vietnamese journey together!

Learn Chinese from A1 to C2, from having fun to prepare testI run private lessons, where all levels are welcome. But if you’re a total beginner then I offer basic classes to help you find the way to get into it.
I develop diverse methods of teaching for the students. For the around 5-8 years old kids, I would like to set certain games to play with them, thereby the kids can learn the new language during the interaction and communication. In this way, different media, like color pictures, puppets, or storybooks are essential to make the course very attractive. For the teenager or advanced students, a structuralized teaching content based on scenarios or textbook could help the students to develop their language capacity efficiently in different aspects – listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Besides, I would like to give a deeper perspective for the Chinese- not only learning the language from the textbooks, but also the knowledge of the language, the culture, and the literature.
Also, based on your need and situation, we choose different textbooks and make a personal teaching plan for you.

Chinese language (Mandarin) and culture for all levels and agesWith my thorough knowledge of the Chinese language and culture, we will search together for the appropriate way to master the language. In my experience, everyone learns in a different way, so we will find out together what is the most fun!
I graduated in 2017 as a Sinologist at Ghent University (Chinese language and culture). I also obtained a master's degree at Sichuan University (四川大学) (2018). After that, I spent a few years in China. In addition to a basic course with an emphasis on oral, I create lessons that go beyond just language. Chinese language is embedded in culture and history, so we also take a moment to reflect on that. I have experience with private lessons for adults who move to China as expats, but the lessons are flexible and for all ages!
Lessons:
I use a basic Chinese course but there is a lot we can fill in ourselves. What kind of series/films do you like to watch? Is there any music you like to listen to? Through these questions I can recommend certain Chinese music and series that we can work with. For example, instead of homework I will give a film to watch, this way we learn through absorption instead of forcing ourselves to remember everything. If it is fun, everything sticks better!
Would you like to focus more on speaking instead of writing or vice versa? That is possible, in which situations would you like to use Chinese? For work or for a trip? That way we can adapt the lessons to personal wishes.
Once we have progressed a bit further, I also organize lessons and dinners with Chinese friends in Ghent or Brussels, so we can practice with real "native speakers".
Please let me know if you have any questions,
See you soon, Tommy
