Mandarin Chinese Teacher (16 years of experience, 500+ satisfied students) | Director & Founder of Language School (2 locations, 13 years)

I am Juli, owner of a Chinese language school with two branches, which I have been running with complete dedication for 13 years. With 16 years of teaching experience, I have guided hundreds of students, from primary school pupils to university students and adults.
Speaking is central from day 1. In a safe, patient environment, you dare to talk, make mistakes, and make real progress.
The student-centered model is my top priority: the pace and teaching method are fully adapted to your needs and learning speed.
What many people often do wrong is focus too much on grammar and completely neglect the speaking aspect of the language. Many students take several years before they start speaking. That does not happen in my lessons. Speaking is the key to learning and will be our first priority. I teach with patience and dedication, because for me, teaching has never been a job; it is my life's purpose, and I fulfill it with the greatest devotion.
What makes my lessons truly special is that you also get to know China itself through the language and the characters. You don't just learn words and sentences, but also journey through the history of our country and discover the beauty of Chinese culture. Language and country are inextricably linked, and I make that visible and tangible in every lesson.
Lessons are taught in English. They are online one-on-one or in small groups.

You are the focus. Speaking from day one. Making mistakes is welcome – that is how you learn.
And along the way, we discover the soul of China together. :-)

About Me

I have been a teacher my entire life. I ran a language school in China for 13 years, and we taught more than 500 students. I have opened two branches where young students, adults, and seniors receive lessons.
My students have achieved great academic success thanks to the efficiency of the teaching method I have designed. I find it very important to focus on each individual and to adapt the lessons to his or her needs and learning style. I focus on speaking, because Chinese is a living language – and it must be spoken from day one.
My students start speaking from day one. I make sure they feel confident and safe to make mistakes, because mistakes are the key to learning :-)

A little about myself:
I am a very sporty person. I love road cycling, swimming, and traveling. One of my fondest memories is cycling 124 kilometers in one day around Lake Er in Yunnan province. I really loved it :-)
I have traveled to 11 foreign countries on 3 different continents. Traveling is my passion. I also enjoy reading and learning more about other cultures.

I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives.

I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job.

I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!

Hi everybody, my name is Guido and Foreign languages have always been my passion; I am a language teacher for English and Standard Mandarin Chinese.
Language is not just a matter of being a native speaker, so learning it means acquiring all the linguistic and metalinguistic features that every language has and that help learners acquire a good command of the language.
In teaching General and SP (Specific Purposes) Chinese and English, the meta-language is an integral part of the learning process, making every student live an experience with the language. For Chinese, I prepare the students to dive into the language until HSK 4; For English, General and Academic Courses are also offered.
