From 25.9 £ /h

With more and more people speaking Chinese, it's a language that's used in all sorts of circumstances nowadays.

I've designed this course as a guide to vocabulary learning and oral Chinese practice for all levels to help students express themselves in this language. Writing practice can also be included at the student's request. Meanwhile, this is also a Chinese culture learning course.

You'll learn how to start and continue conversations, how to talk to native speakers in different situations, what words to use, etc. The cultural content can vary according to students' interests.

With a Ph. D in Cultural Interaction Studies and 6 years international teaching experiences in higher education, I have designed curriculum on art history and cultural history for students in Japan, US and China. This class invites people who are interested in Chinese culture to take a promenade with me in Chinese aesthetics. You will have a thorough understanding of the origin and development of the refined and elegant taste in Chinese art. After this class, you will be able to tell the authentic Chinese art from the counterfeit poorly produced by Hollywood and Disney, and master la langue chinoise soutenue.

I would like to offer private Chinese lessons for those who need it. Indeed, being a student of philosophy, my teaching approach is more synthetic and based on the understanding and assimilation of traditional Chinese culture, in addition to the purely linguistic learning that goes without saying. I am also very open and focused on communication and exchange during an educational report.

The Chinese language fascinates, but also apprehensive a large number of people who do not dare to start for reasons that may be linked to the difficulty it brings for the learner. Chinese not being my mother tongue, I myself had to face these difficulties which are not insurmountable: a daily methodology and regular practice will prove to be the keys to success.
In this course, you will learn the four pillars of the language, namely understanding, speaking, reading and of course writing.

I am a native speaker from China. I started teaching Chinese a year ago. In my lesson, we can communicate in Chinese, English and French.

I can help you with grammar and pronunciation issues. I will also introduce you to Chinese culture. For example, we can do some calligraphy in the classroom. (I will give you the specific brush and paper.) I will improve your Chinese language in a comfortable atmosphere and share my knowledge and experience with students.

Currently, I am studying history at the Sorbonne and I am passionate about languages and exchanges. I have French C2 and Japanese N2 certificate. Now I am also learning Latin and Spanish. This means that I can help you not only to improve your pronunciation, to correct your grammar, but also to share with you a lot of knowledge on how to learn a new language, to offer many aspects of the culture.

I taught Chinese children when I was in China, so I'm quite familiar with grammar and poems for children.
