Chinese at Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced levels
Embarking on the journey of learning Chinese opens up a world rich in history, culture, and modern opportunities. Mastering this language not only allows you to access the thoughts and writings of over a billion people across the globe but also provides a competitive edge in the increasingly interconnected global job market. Starting with the basics, learners will master Pinyin (the Romanization system for Chinese characters), essential grammar, and an extensive vocabulary that will serve as the building blocks for fluency. Progressing through the course, students will hone their skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing, enabling them to engage confidently in conversations, comprehend authentic texts, and express themselves with clarity and precision. Being a native speaker, along with over four years of experience teaching Chinese across a spectrum of learners—from primary school students to adults—I am adept at tailoring my teaching methods to suit diverse learning styles and objectives.

As a Ukrainian teacher for foreigners with varying language proficiency levels, I hold a unique and pivotal role in the realm of education. I am in touch with my students almost all the time. We are not only practicing grammar and vocabulary, but we are also experiencing a love of Ukrainian culture together. There is no place for constant boring theory and mindless rote memorization. My values are trust, understanding and love. My dedication to imparting the Ukrainian language to a diverse group of learners has shaped an identity, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences, skills, and qualities that make an invaluable asset in the field of education. I love seeing and participating in my students' interest in the Ukrainian language. What warms my heart the most is their curiosity about every detail and exception. Especially when they want to look for new things for themselves and then tell me about what they have found with a twinkle in their eye.

Urdu Conversation - Learn to speak fluent Urdu with a fine accent
I am a native Urdu speaker and love this polite and cultured language. Those students who wish to speak Urdu for the sake of personal enjoyment and fulfillment – or even to converse with their spouses, friends, and family – will learn with me to speak the language with a fine neutral accent. I will provide several real-life scenarios and encourage students to hold hesitation-free conversations with a pleasant accent. At the end of successfully finishing this course, the student will be able to converse in Urdu without hesitation. Urdu is a beautiful language that is spoken by more than 200 million people worldwide in countries like Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, the United Arab Emirates, and other parts of the world. Urdu started developing in North India around Delhi in the 12th century. It was based on the language spoken in the area around Delhi and was heavily influenced by Arabic and Persian as well as Turkish. Urdu originates from Hindi, sometimes referred to as the 'sister' language of Urdu due to its grammatical basis. However, Hindi is written in 'Devanagari', a script similar to Sanskrit, and its vocabulary is influenced more by Sanskrit than by Persian and Arabic.

Simon
Language Learning Coach- Learn how to learn a language, use it with ease and have great conversations
“I feel stuck” These words I hear again and again, from beginners to advanced. The majority of students who come to me are frustrated. They spent many years studying languages at school. They’ve spent both their time and lots of money. Only to find themselves still struggling to form a sentence. Still struggling to be able to understand a native speaker. If you’re here then I’m assuming you share some of these same struggles. You get confused trying to memorize grammar rules, remember vocabulary, and makes sentances. You don’t know how to learn every day. You get distracted and then you feel too tired to keep going. Believe it or not, I’ve been there too and to be honest, it sucks to have another language is to possess a second soul Charlemage Now, I want you to trust me on your language journey Imagine finally knowing exactly what to do when you sit at your desk to learn a language. Imagine knowing how to learn grammar, how to remember vocabulary and make it stick, how to speak, and how to write beautiful sentences. Imagine going on holiday somewhere and interacting with locals. Laughing, eating, dancing and living life in a different language.
