LESSONS FOR ADULTS
If you would like to take the official HSK exam, I have developed an effective program to help you learn and prepare for the exam. I will propose a preparation plan for the exam that will last 3 to 6 months. I can also teach you the Chinese business culture, how to communicate with Chinese business people.

LESSONS FOR CHILDREN
I believe that the most important thing in teaching is to trigger the interest and curiosity of children. I have therefore developed a playful and creative method.

For each face-to-face class, I create exercises, readings, paper assignments, and educational board games. All this is adapted to the level and preferences of each student.

For the online courses, I create my own interactive presentations with examples, conversations, pictures, photos, and exercises to stimulate discussion and memory.

For children who wish to take the official HSK exam, I also integrate exam preparation into my classes.

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!

Chinese is a beautiful language! Whether you are hoping to learn it for travel, school, work purposes or fun, I am ready to help you with it!

As a Singaporean Chinese, I started learning Chinese at age 4 as it was mandatory for us to learn our mother tongue. I enjoyed learning the language when I was still in school because I had patient and fun teachers who made learning the language captivating. It has greatly helped me in my work and everyday life and also as I travel to Mandarin speaking countries.

Whatever your level, my goal is to help you fall in love with the language with unusual learning techniques ( not just writing and reading all the time). I believe we learn better when we are having fun. I will help you master the foundation and come up with a tailored plan for you to learn new vocabulary. I do not promise overnight results, but I can promise you that as long as you are a keen learner, you will be able to understand and participate in conversations in Mandarin in a short time!

Hi everyone!

This is Maxie, I have been teaching Chinese Mandarin for 4 years. The keywords of my Chinese class are funny, clear, easy to understand, and being able to connected to what you have interested in. I tutored students from USA, NZ, KOR, etc. I speak English , Chinese, Korean, and a little bit of Japanese. I like Danmei, Anime and Manga, traditional culture, all kinds of music, books, and drawings. I always consider myself a 'Octopus' who knows a little acknowledge of almost all aspects, lol! And I'm super outgoing, that means we will be always has some thing to talk about.

For my teaching method:
I think advantages of studying Chinese with me are listed as follows. As a tutor, I am good helping students to find their expectations and to draw the blueprint of results they will get, so the target will be more clear, and it also works as a booster to encourage students to achieve their goals. I studied Chinese language as side major when I was in college, and I'm also interested in philosophies, so not only for beginners, but high levelers can benefit from my classes too. For that I am professional. And the most important thing, I'm funny! I know learning a language could be hard, and boring sometimes, but making it interesting is also one of my specialty. We will start this journey together, and see where life will take us!

More info: Currently I'm living in Cully, Switzerland, try to explore the world ,learn the language, and meet with new people. So if you are in this town, I don't mind to give off line classes. Merci!
