I grew up and had educations in China. I moved to Europe for teaching Chinese in 2019 November.
I am fun, active, very patient, and responsible. I have never come late to all of my classes for more than 10 years.
For children's classes, I prepare songs, videos, cartoons, teaching and explaining at the same time, They learn really fast and never feel bored when they are excited with a fun teacher and materials. I believe that interest is the best teacher. So I try my best to prepare before classes and send materials after classes to students.

My name is Anne, I completed my B.A. degree in English, my Master degree, and my Ph.D. degree in the UK (Edinburgh University and Manchester University).

I have more than 10 years of private tutoring experience in the fields of English and Chinese. In addition, I have been teaching at the University of Manchester in the UK for more than 4 years in the subjects of Social Science (Economics, Philosophy, and Politics).

My teaching methodology varies, depending on the personality, interests, and needs of the students. I often teach English and Chinese through real-life examples, such as through news, movies, music, and cultural events.

Depending on what you want to learn, we can focus on grammar, sentence structure, vocabularies of a particular topic, or start at the basics learning phonics. Also, if you need professional academic advice on homework or essays at the university or colleges, I will be more than happy to help you out. I am also familiar with editing and proofreading students' resume/ cv/ motivation letter.

My class would be perfect for either adults or children wanting to improve their oral and written English skills. Each class will be personalized to your needs and abilities.

The first class will evaluate your level and then we can start from there to personalize the best lesson plans for you to improve your English or Chinese.

My lessons are fun, practical, and will improve your confidence in using English for work and pleasure. Come join me and try out!

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!
