1-on-1 Chinese for Adults: HSK Preparation & Business Communication

Von 26.94 € /Std

Are you an adult learner aiming to use Chinese in real-life scenarios—whether for HSK exams, work meetings, or business communication? This course is designed to turn your Chinese skills into practical, usable tools.
As a CTCSOL-certified tutor with 2 years of 1-on-1 teaching experience, I focus on:
HSK preparation (Levels 1-5): Targeted practice for listening, reading, and writing (e.g., filling out forms, understanding daily conversations, passing HSK exams efficiently).
Business Chinese: Real workplace scenarios (e.g., introducing yourself in meetings, negotiating prices, writing professional emails, and making business calls).
Conversational fluency: Quick, natural phrases for daily/business interactions (no more memorizing useless vocabulary!).
Lessons are 100% customized to your goals: If you need to prepare for an HSK test next month, we’ll focus on exam skills. If you have a business trip to China, we’ll practice negotiation and small talk.
By the end of each lesson, you’ll walk away with phrases you can use immediately—no vague theory, just practical progress.
Let’s turn your Chinese learning into tangible results!

I'm a native Chinese who has a profound understanding of English. I'm very sociable and I like to help people practice their Chinese. We can talk about music, videos, history, ... anything! Personally, I've been working the past 5 years as a nurse in a international hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China. I've been talking with Chinese-learners a lot within these past few years. We practice all kinds of Chinese vocabulary such as daily routine talk, all kinds of subjects, business vocabulary, ...
认识你很高兴!
Kind regards,

I specialise in tutoring Mandarin Chinese for people who either want to improve the language skills or are new beginners who has the interest in learning the language.
I've developed a learning method which helps the students build up the language structures in an effective way, be able to speak the language independently in a relatively short amount of time by mastering the normally boring grammar rules in a fun way.
The benefits of my course is that the students are learning the language in a relaxing learning environment in a natural way without straining.

你好!Grüezi!Hola!Hello!

I'm a Confucius Institute (the ONLY globally recognized official institution for teaching Chinese to speakers of other languages) certified Mandarin teacher.

I'm also an official YCT (Youth Chinese Test)/ HSK (Chinese Proficiency Test)/ HSKK (Chinese Proficiency Spoken Test) test examiner.

In addition to giving private lessons, I also teach Chinese at international schools and lead Mandarin immersion Spielgruppe (playgroup) in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. My speciality is teaching children between the age of 2.5 and 12 in an immersive and interactive learning environment. By means of guided game-playing, painting, story-reading, drama activities, song-singing, dancing, and handcraft-making, kids achieve organic language acquisition while having a lot of fun.

The predominant features you will find in my class are tailor-made teaching materials and methods that are customized to best suit your specific study objectives (Preschooler Chinese, K-12 Chinese, YCT, HSK, Beginner Chinese, Conversational Chinese, Business Chinese...etc.).

As a language learner myself (B.A. major in Spanish and currently studying German), I have great patience and willingness to help you on your journey towards Chinese proficiency, because I know how frustrating it could get at times. Being in the shoes of a linguistics student for years also enables me to better instruct you, as I understand very well what are the things a learner would find helpful.

I welcome students of all age groups and prior proficiency levels. Looking forward to sharing my knowledge of Chinese language and culture with you:)

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.

I can customize the online course for you to learn Mandarin the way you want, e.g., speaking only focus or reading plus speaking, etc.

Each course lasts a maximum of 60-90 minutes and I can communicate with you either in English or a little in German; However, for your own comfort, we will need to speak in Mandarin during the course.

I can accept students between the ages of 12 and 25 and accept payments via an Austrian bank account.

Feel free to contact me and discuss how you would like to start your Mandarin adventure.

I’m Kurt, based in Munich. I teach Mandarin Chinese and Japanese with a linguistic background. Find learning an exotic, Asian language cool but don't know where to get started with? Or are you already been frustrated by them: why Japanese drops the subject all the time? Why Chinese has no past tense while you still know when it happened? And more importantly, while Pinyin or Hiragana seems sufficient for writing the language, why do I have to learn the stupid Hanzi or Kanji at all? I got you. We start speaking ‘why the hell does the language work like that’ starting from the first minute, maximum actual talking and laughing.

I teach Cantonese online and I take great pleasure in teaching the language in a lively, understandable and practical way.

In China, I worked for three years as a teacher in an arts and education institution, where I regularly gave lessons.
I now incorporate this pedagogical experience into my language teaching.

I have a bachelor's degree in sculpture and am currently studying in the performance class at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich.
My artistic background helps me to make lessons creative, interactive and varied – learning should be fun!

In class, we work a lot with speaking and listening. You will learn, for example:
• the correct pronunciation and tones in Cantonese
• everyday dialogues and useful phrases
• Free speaking step by step
• Insights into Cantonese culture and actual language use

The lessons are individually tailored to your level and your goals – whether you are a beginner or advanced student.
Explanations are available in German, English, Mandarin or Cantonese.

I look forward to helping you learn Cantonese!

Fluent in English and B2-level German, I am passionate about helping speakers of both languages master Chinese through authentic connection. My approach skips the rigid, standardized textbooks; instead, we focus on practical dialogues and real-life conversations tailored to your interests.

Having traveled to countries like Singapore, Portugal, the UK, Germany, Czechia, and Italy, I bring a global perspective to my lessons. I love weaving my international experiences and personal stories into our sessions, making each lesson not just a language class, but a cultural exchange. Let’s learn Chinese through the lens of the real world!
