This is a beginner-friendly Chinese (Mandarin) course designed for students with little or no prior experience. The class focuses on practical communication skills, including pronunciation (pinyin), basic vocabulary, and essential grammar structures. You will learn how to introduce yourself, hold simple daily conversations, and understand foundational Chinese sentence patterns. The course is interactive and includes speaking practice, listening exercises, and real-life examples to help you build confidence step by step.

This course is designed for both complete beginners and professionals who want to improve their Chinese for real-life communication or business purposes. As a native Mandarin speaker with clear and standard pronunciation, I will help you build a strong foundation in speaking, listening, and understanding Chinese in a practical and efficient way. For beginners, we will start from the basics, including pronunciation (Pinyin), essential vocabulary, and simple sentence structures. You will quickly gain the ability to introduce yourself, handle daily conversations, and understand commonly used expressions. For intermediate or business learners, the course can be tailored to your specific needs, such as workplace communication, meetings, emails, and cultural understanding in Chinese business contexts. My teaching style is flexible, interactive, and focused on real communication rather than memorizing textbooks. Lessons are adapted to your goals, whether you want to travel, study, work, or communicate confidently with Chinese speakers. With clear guidance and structured practice, you will be able to start speaking Chinese from the very beginning and steadily improve your fluency.

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.
