Currently Mandarin Chinese is spoken by over 1 billion people around the world, about one fifth of the global population

Since many Chinese people cannot really speak English, this is the time to begin learning Mandarin. If you can speak Mandarin you will be able to communicate with locals not just from China, but from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore as well, including Chinese people living abroad. Speaking Mandarin is an asset and will open new doors for you.

Online Chinese lessons

I will understand your individual Chinese level, strong points, and weak points. Each student has his/her learning style. For example, some people like to check unknown words and analyze grammar points, and some people like to read and talk much. I will watch to balance your strong points and weak points and search for the most effective learning methods and pace for you. You can ask me questions any time; during lessons or via email. You can have a say in materials and how to do our lessons.

Tutor will be your personal pacemaker so that you can progress steadily, which may be difficult to continue by yourself.

I can explain Chinese grammar in English to elementary students. I can teach only in Chinese of course, the so-called “direct method”, if you’d like. However, I think it might be inefficient to understand Chinese only in Chinese for elementary level students.

When you don’t know how to say something in Chinese, I can translate your English to Chinese. So you can learn Chinese expressions which you really want to say at that time. Gradually I will lead you to communicate only in Chinese in lessons.
