I 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.

The most important thing when learning a language is to build up your own language corpus and to actually use the language in conversation and in everyday life.
Since I taught myself German, I know the subtle differences between Chinese and German very well – from pronunciation to grammar to the cultural nuances behind them.

In my lessons, I don't use traditional textbooks. I'm much more interested in how you want to learn this language.
In the first lesson, we'll get to know each other through conversation: What do you like to talk about? What would you like to improve? After that, I'll create personalized lessons for you. Each lesson begins with an open conversation in Chinese. Depending on your needs, I'll integrate relevant audio and video materials into the lessons. After each lesson, you'll receive a list of new vocabulary and key points to keep you informed, so you can continuously expand your vocabulary. This is even more helpful if you use Anki :)

Note: This course is not suitable for absolute beginners or for targeted exam preparation.

Note: I currently only offer online lessons. From April onwards, it will also be possible to book in-person lessons again.

I am a native Mandarin Chinese speaker, born in Gansu Province, China, and I completed my secondary education in Sichuan. Growing up in different regions of China gave me a rich cultural background and a broad understanding of everyday Chinese life and language.

Later, I moved to Belgium to study at university in Dutch, and today I work as a mechanical engineer. I am also a father of two children. Living abroad and learning new languages myself has helped me understand how challenging — but also how fun — language learning can be.

I prefer to teach Chinese in a relaxed and enjoyable way. My lessons feel more like natural conversations than formal classes. We can talk about daily life, culture, travel, food, family, or any topic that interests you. I believe that language grows best in a comfortable and friendly environment.

Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some foundation, we can move at your own pace without pressure.

You are welcome if you:

Simply want to speak Chinese more confidently

Are curious about Chinese culture

Plan to travel to China

Want conversational practice

Or just enjoy learning languages in a relaxed atmosphere

Learning Chinese doesn’t have to be stressful — it can be interesting, warm, and fun.

I look forward to meeting you and having meaningful conversations together!
