Math tutor to boost your fear with math and level up your grade

42 € /h

If math is your worst enemy, that ONE subject you just want to get it over with. Don't worry, I can help! I was once horrible at math then through guidance, I was able to do well. Hence I want to share the skill with more people and encourage them that they can do it as well. During my time in high school, I also helped out students at lower grade level with their math problems and struggles. I am familiar with pure math topics which are similar to the IGCSE extended level as well as A-level.
Don't be afraid and reach out to me if you need help with math!

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!

Mandarin Chinese is a powerful language for global communication. As a learner, you'll need to be able to navigate its unique tones, characters, and sentence structures that will help you express yourself more naturally. I've designed this course as a practical guide to Mandarin Chinese specifically made for learners of all levels.

You'll learn how to master Pinyin and tones, build essential vocabulary, form sentences confidently, and use everyday expressions in real-life conversations. Beyond the basics, you'll also explore cultural nuances and common idioms — not just to speak Chinese, but to truly communicate like a native speaker.

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.
