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.
