Hello everyone, my name is Angel. I am a Chinese citizen living in Nottingham (United Kingdom), working as a professional online tutor. For face to face lessons, these will only be available in Nottingham. Thank you kindly for taking the time to visit my profile.

My formal education is obtaining China's 'National Teacher Certification' in 2018, specialising in teaching Junior Secondary School students.

My career has seen me teaching English in schools in China for over five years, with an additional five years experience of being a private Mandarin tutor in UK. Including online classroom teaching experience for British private schools.

The usual age of my students are from 3 to 16 years old, however I have good experience working with adults. Since early of 2019 I have taught Chinese in person and online across students of different abilities, e.g. Primary, Pearson Edexcel GCSE, A Level, HSK Standard Course, YCT Standard Course, Chinese Made Easy and Adult learners. My focus is adapting to the teaching needs, learning styles and abilities of my students. As of recently, I have enjoyed tutoring my students online during the pandemic.

I had helped over 35 students to prepare their GCSE exam and got good grade privately over the past few years. And five students for Pearson A Level.

Recently I had received some good news from my students those who have attended GCSE and IGCSE in 2024, for Pearson Edexcel GCSE: one student achieved Grade 9, two students achieved Grade 8, one achieved Grade 7; one student achieved IGCSE grade A. I'd like to support more students who wants to prepare for their GCSE, IGCSE or A level Exam.

My skill sets include teaching Mandarin character writing, standard Mandarin pronunciation and proficiencies in Chinese culture. I am excited to put my skills and knowledge to use here on apprentus , for teaching authentic Mandarin to those looking for a Mandarin tutor. I make use of the TPR (Total Physical Response) teaching method, to give my students immersion in the language, attract their attention, with a focus on making the lessons more fun, to let my students enjoy learning a new language.

Through my lessons, I can effectively help young students or adult learners reach their personal goals in Mandarin.

If you want to learn or improve your Mandarin in person / on-line, please contact me. I will respond to you as soon as possible. I hope to help your listening, speaking, reading and writing Chinese in day-to-day life.

Looking forwards to hearing from you.
Thank you. Best wishes.

I am a piano teacher with 30 years' experience of teaching both adults and children, taking them through grades if required or facilitating their development as musicians for their own pleasure. I offer students classical, blues and pop/rock pieces to spark their interest in a range of music and help them to discover what really fires their enthusiasm.

Since the pandemic began I have been teaching online and am equally ok with that now as face-to-face. I also have taught guitar in the past to pupils already learning piano with me and am able to offer tuition in acoustic guitar for learning songs in various playing styles. I also teach music theory.

My approach is one of helping students to develop a musical sensibility and have a rewarding and creative experience as they explore their taste and strengths in music. I know through my years of teaching that the spark can sometimes be immediate and at other times take a while to happen and I offer the support that hopefully will facilitate this whether it be early or later. I offer patience and sensitivity to each pupil's progress in the hope that they enjoy the process as an enhancement in their life and development.

For single person lessons I am only really able to travel a maximum of 5 miles from Nottingham centre. If possible please indicate the area you live in when contacting me, thanks :)
