I specialize in tutoring Mandarin Chinese for children, adults, and students. My goals are:

1. to teach you standard Chinese without any strange accents.
2. to give you lots of related and contemporary examples to make you understand the evolution and use of the characters.
3. to compare Chinese and Western cultures to give you a clearer idea of the backgrounds and history of China.

About Me

I'm a fast learner and good explainer. All my students can understand me perfectly well when they have questions about Chinese. From my point of view, it's always important for the tutor to keep the learning interesting and updated to the time, for the learner to keep motivated and spend some time on the learning.

Education

I was born and raised up in China and have a master diploma in social science in one of the best university in Beijing. My GPA ranking is the first. I got a B2 diploma in Dutch during just one year so I know how to master a language fast.

Experience / Qualifications

I've been tutoring Chinese in Dutch and English for more than five years and help lots of Chinese learners to get great progress in this language. Some of them have successfully got a good degree in Chinese.

Chinese (Mandarin) / English homework support / English conversations / English tutoring
I will be teaching Mandarin from the beginning and start explaining how it works. It does not have an alphabet, so be ready to enjoy a whole new different way of learning a language! You will learn pronouns, numbers, basic grammar, principal verbs, interrogation particles, time particles, and vocabulary, progressively. I will also be sending some exercises for you to practice what we have learned and have your character writing on point. ------------------ Would you like your children to have some help with their English homework? Or do you want to practice your spoken skills in English with someone? In any case, I will be happy to help! If there is anything you need, I’m always up for questions and clarifications! Do not worry about schedules. We can both be flexible whenever necessary. We don’t want to add up stress, but to have a good time discovering these amazing languages!

How to effectively improve Chinese level from zero to fluent conversation
More and more people are planning to learn Chinese for travel, work needs or simply because they are curious and interested in the language. The pronunciation and writing system of Chinese is very different from that of the Dutch and Latin languages, and it also becomes a huge obstacle in learning Chinese. It is the aim of the courses I teach to help you overcome all obstacles in the Chinese learning process. As a student of English literature, I can understand the relationship between languages and how I can help you create this relationship.

Hernan
Language classes, with native level of SPANISH AND CHINESE, and advanced level of English
Hello. My name is Hernan, I am from Argentina. I have a native level of Spanish and Chinese. I also speak English with a level equivalent to C1. I have 8 years of experience, mostly at the initial level (from 0), although I also had students with slightly more advanced levels, preparation for HSK 4 onwards. I usually work with students 1vs1 (in private tutoring) but I have also coordinated classes with groups of up to 6. What are my classes like: I plan my classes so that they are dynamic and well structured, personalized and adapted to the needs of each student. I try to design the classes so that they are well balanced between four main aspects: oral expression, listening comprehension, reading comprehension and writing, since my objective is not only focused on my students getting a language certificate, but also on teaching. my students to get used to the Chinese language. What I offer my students: Private Chinese classes online, in groups or individually, with a flexible schedule and an affordable price, both for people who want to venture into learning Chinese or English from scratch, and for those who want to continue their study of the language at more advanced levels. Likewise, I have a lot of experience in HSK preparation courses (official exams) and my student passing rate in these exams is more than 90%. Outside of class I usually organize interesting activities to bring my students closer to Chinese culture and to meet native people. Some examples of these activities are: periodic Chinese and Spanish exchanges, Chinese food workshops, international Chinese market conferences, Chinese calligraphy workshops, etc. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me, I will be willing to help you. Thank you very much. Chen Hernan

Chinese lessons for everybody - first speaking than reading!
I think that the most important part of learning Chinese is actual speaking. Of course, reading, writing and grammar it’s also interesting part of this language, but the Chinese characters won’t save you in the conversation, especially with a wrong pronunciation. The lesson is just about you though and it will depend only on you which part of the language learning will be emphasized and which will stay in th background. And I will do my best to make learning exciting and enriching.

Tailor-made language courses: French, English and Chinese online and in person
My pedagogy is based on teaching in harmony with the learner (their language level, their objectives, their passions, their difficulties, etc.) while ensuring that they are active in their learning. To do this, it is important to start with a diagnostic assessment to adapt a program according to the learner's needs. At the end of each course, a follow-up will be completed, in order to have a written record of the objectives achieved, the language skills worked on, the difficulties encountered, among others.

Xingying
Learn Chinese from A1 to C2, from having fun to prepare test
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.

Gwendolyn
Chinese (mandarin) lessons for adults and kids of all levels
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!
