That is (not) Chinese for me! Chinese / Mandarin course

From 26 € /h

I am a sinologist and completed the specific teacher training course for Chinese last year. Because Chinese is not my native language, I know the challenges and pitfalls of this language too well. My goal is to make the student enthusiastic about Chinese and Chinese culture. I try to respond as much as possible to the wishes and level of the student. Learning Chinese really meant an enrichment for me, hopefully for you soon too!

I come from Taiwan, which is a lovely country with full of diverse culture and freedom in life experiences. Chinese(Mandarin) is my mother language and I also speak English and German. Languages are tools. I don't teach them for tests and exams but for life. How to use it in daily life or with your friends from the Chinese speaking countries. Mandarin speaking is not difficult to learn and even the words look really beautiful. We could discuss and decide what you want to learn and also match your requirements.

Nowadays, Chinese is getting more important. For a lot of people, they think Chinese is a difficult language BUT NO! The grammar is very easy, for me, the most difficult thing when learning Chinese is the pronounce and the words. BUT practice make perfect! :)

My father teaches Chinese calligraphy (书法) as it is his passion. If you are interested in the art of calligraphy, the technicalities behind Chinese calligraphy (stroke order, harmony, correct strokes, etc.) and would love to hear more about the history behind calligraphy and the characters, this class might be something for you.

Previous knowledge is not required but a basic understanding of Chinese characters (traditional or simplified) and a basis in writing would be helpful. However, we could build it up from scratch as well.

Equipment can be provided during the classes (brush, ink and paper).

Learning Chinese doesn’t have to feel intimidating or dry—especially when you learn it with someone who lives the language every day. I’m a Chinese student currently studying in Belgium, and over the past few years, I’ve met people from all over the world who were curious about Chinese language and culture. Those experiences helped me create a teaching style that is warm, open-minded, and full of real-life examples.

In this class, we’ll go beyond textbooks. You’ll learn the phrases you actually need, understand cultural nuances, and practice speaking in a relaxed, supportive environment. Each session is interactive and conversational—I love bringing in stories, cultural insights, and fun activities so that you not only learn the language but also enjoy the process. Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone who wants to feel more confident speaking, I’ll guide you step by step
