Marina
Chinese Mandarin,10 years of experience,full time, patient,1-on-1 and group interesting classes, HSK, Daily Chinese, etc, 3 years to adultsS
I am a full-time professional Chinese Mandarin teacher from the North of China where Mandarin comes from. I have been teaching for about 10 years as a teacher and school owner. I have my own school and website for studying Chinese. Students' ages are from 3 to adults. They are from all over the world. You can study with me online /come to my office/ Go-home lessons. Classes can be one-to-one or group classes. I have been helping numerous people learn to speak Chinese and do exam HSK. Children always have fun learning Mandarin with me. I teach Mandarin for business purposes, traveling, YCT (for Children and teenagers), BCT (business Chinese), Conversational practice, Advanced level Chinese classes, etc. Any levels are all welcome. Classes type: Daily Chinese HSK class: Level 1--Level 6 HSKK class: HSK speaking test (Beginner to advanced) Chinese grammar class BCT / Startup Business in China: Business Chinese (Beginner to Advanced) YCT class: Level 1--Level 6 for children to teenagers Easy steps to Chinese: 3-12 years old children There are some other classes that welcome you to message me. 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. The classes can be taught in Chinese, English.

Xingying
Learn Chinese from A1 to C2, from having fun to prepare test
I run private lessons, where all levels are welcome. But if you’re a total beginner then I offer basic classes to help you find the way to get into it. I develop diverse methods of teaching for the students. For the around 5-8 years old kids, I would like to set certain games to play with them, thereby the kids can learn the new language during the interaction and communication. In this way, different media, like color pictures, puppets, or storybooks are essential to make the course very attractive. For the teenager or advanced students, a structuralized teaching content based on scenarios or textbook could help the students to develop their language capacity efficiently in different aspects – listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Besides, I would like to give a deeper perspective for the Chinese- not only learning the language from the textbooks, but also the knowledge of the language, the culture, and the literature. Also, based on your need and situation, we choose different textbooks and make a personal teaching plan for you.

Hernan
Language classes, with native level of SPANISH AND CHINESE, and advanced level of English
Hello. My name is Hernan, I am from Argentina. I have a native level of Spanish and Chinese. I also speak English with a level equivalent to C1. I have 8 years of experience, mostly at the initial level (from 0), although I also had students with slightly more advanced levels, preparation for HSK 4 onwards. I usually work with students 1vs1 (in private tutoring) but I have also coordinated classes with groups of up to 6. What are my classes like: I plan my classes so that they are dynamic and well structured, personalized and adapted to the needs of each student. I try to design the classes so that they are well balanced between four main aspects: oral expression, listening comprehension, reading comprehension and writing, since my objective is not only focused on my students getting a language certificate, but also on teaching. my students to get used to the Chinese language. What I offer my students: Private Chinese classes online, in groups or individually, with a flexible schedule and an affordable price, both for people who want to venture into learning Chinese or English from scratch, and for those who want to continue their study of the language at more advanced levels. Likewise, I have a lot of experience in HSK preparation courses (official exams) and my student passing rate in these exams is more than 90%. Outside of class I usually organize interesting activities to bring my students closer to Chinese culture and to meet native people. Some examples of these activities are: periodic Chinese and Spanish exchanges, Chinese food workshops, international Chinese market conferences, Chinese calligraphy workshops, etc. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me, I will be willing to help you. Thank you very much. Chen Hernan

Tailor-made language courses: French, English and Chinese online and in person
My pedagogy is based on teaching in harmony with the learner (their language level, their objectives, their passions, their difficulties, etc.) while ensuring that they are active in their learning. To do this, it is important to start with a diagnostic assessment to adapt a program according to the learner's needs. At the end of each course, a follow-up will be completed, in order to have a written record of the objectives achieved, the language skills worked on, the difficulties encountered, among others.
