Mandarin Chinese

From 22.64 £ /h

I am looking for students to learn Chinese with me.
I've got an undergraduate degree in "Chinese studies: teaching Chinese as a second language". I have passed the official Chinese Proficiency Test at the highest level (HSK level 6, 266/300).
I can tutor you online via Skype. My lessons are scheduled according to your timetable.
We discuss which aspects of Chinese you want to focus on and what you are looking for in a teacher.
I tailor my classes according to your own needs, and I've got several textbooks to provide for you.

About Me

I love the Chinese language, every bit of the sound, the grammar, the syntax. Everything about it seems incredibly interesting to me. I have majored in "Teaching Chinese as a Second Language" when I was in college, then took my passion to China, where I have been working as an English teacher for the past three years.

I provide the textbooks and listening material along with my classes. At first, we discuss what aspects of the language you'd like to focus on - speaking, listening, writing, reading, test preparation etc. Then we work up a learning strategy best suited for you.

Looking forward to your response!
Alex
