Mandarin Tutorials: From Phonetic Precision to Digital Slang

A partir de 34.07 $ /h

I’m a native speaker with a background in Linguistics and Phonetics, teaching Mandarin through the lens of how it’s actually spoken today.

We’ll master the "Big Five"—listening, speaking, reading, writing, and grammar, with a focus on the "whys" to make it stick. We won't stop at the fundamentals. We’ll dive into internet subcultures, memes, and social trends to make the courses more grounded.

Whether you're decoding a classical idiom or navigating a social media thread, you’ll gain the cultural context and linguistic tools to speak with genuine confidence. Let’s get started.

Acerca de mí

Hi! I’m Jialong. I believe learning a language is about building a new logic, not just memorizing words. With a background in Linguistics and Phonetics, I offer more than conversation—I provide a "user manual" for your voice. I’ll show you exactly how to position your tongue and manage your breath to master those tricky Mandarin tones.

I love working with curious minds—students who ask "why" and want to dive into everything from classical grammar to the latest internet memes. My sessions are dynamic and structured, focusing on listening, speaking, reading, writing, and grammar. Whether you’re a total beginner or an advanced learner, I’ll help you speak with confidence and cultural nuance.

Formación

Currently pursuing a Bachelor in Economics at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. My academic background in economics and formal training in Linguistics allow me to teach language with logical precision, focusing on systematic grammar and phonetic accuracy for international learners.

Experiencia / Calificaciones

I have very rich experience tutoring diverse students, from children to adults, from beginners to advanced learners. I specialize in bridging the gap between textbook theory and real-world fluency, leveraging my phonetic expertise to correct accents and my deep knowledge of internet culture to engage students.

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:)

Hi, I’m Brady! 👋🏼

I’ve been teaching languages for over 6 years, with more than 3,000 lessons and 400 students worldwide. I specialize in Spanish, English, and Mandarin Chinese, and I adapt every class to your goals, level, and learning style. Whether you’re preparing for exams, improving conversation, or starting from scratch, I’ll make sure our lessons are effective and enjoyable.

With kids (ages 5–15), I prepare extra interactive materials and recommend parents join the first lesson. With adults, I focus on building confidence, fluency, and clear communication.

I was born in the Netherlands and grew up in Spain, the Dominican Republic, and China. I’m a native speaker of Spanish and English, and I’m also proficient in Mandarin Chinese (HSK 6). In 2019, I completed my Chinese studies in Harbin, China.

My main goal is to create a supportive, engaging learning environment where you feel comfortable, motivated, and confident to use the language.

I use a comparative method (Chinese-Spanish) so that you can quickly understand the logic of the language, without boring memorization.
Fundamental principle: Don't focus on rigid grammar rules, but on how to communicate and teach.

Method: In the first class, teach students to say "hello" and "I want a coffee," instead of memorizing a table of beginnings and endings.

Aimed at: All adult students with no prior knowledge of grammar.
