My teaching approach is combining daily life activities into learning materials, and focusing on practical and intuitive methodology. I believe Chinese can be learned in an easy and fun way to interact with others.

I have more than 10 years of teaching experience in Chinese Mandarin. I teach in the international Pin Yin system, or Taiwanese system, including speaking, listening, writing, and reading. I use a pragmatic way to help the student learn the language, and practice in different scenarios according to their progress. Plus I introduce culture sessions, including the modern and traditional discussions.

Reviews (3)

It was a pleasant first introduction to the teacher. She has previously supervised a student from the same course. So it's nice that the teacher knows what to work towards for the exam.

About Me: Hi, I am Tina from Beijing China. I'm a native mandarin speaker. I can also speak English and French. I have more than five years experience in teaching Chinese as a foreign language. I hope to help you improve your Chinese through Apprentus platform and better understand Chinese culture.:) ================================================ 💯My lessons & teaching style 🏅(1)Learn Mandarin Systematically(Use textbook) This course is for students who want to learn Mandarin systematically. In view of the basic and important role of Pinyin in Mandarin, the general knowledge of Pinyin will be taught in the first period, including the pronunciation of initials, finals, different tones, and the most common rules(If you have already know Pinyin, we could jump to the next step). Then you move to the next period, and the HSK textbooks 1 to 3 are recommended as the learning material. You will learn the most common-used words, phrases, sentence patterns, characters, and some interesting knowledge of Chinese culture. Besides, considering Chinese is a tone language, the pronunciation practice is provided throughout the whole learning process. After this period’s learning, you will master about 900 characters and over 1500 words, and your Chinese level will reach to B1, which means that you possess the basic communicative skills to live and travel in China. 🏅(2)Spoken Chinese Course(Use textbook) This course is for the people who could speak some Chinese and hope to enlarge their Chinese vocabulary or improve their speaking. It is designed to meet the requirements for daily social communication, and focuses on the training of listening and speaking skills. ================================================ Book a trial lesson with me and let’s talk about your goals and ambitions. In this lesson, I'll assess your level and get a better understanding of your needs. You'll also find out about me and my teaching style. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

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.

Practice your Mandarine/ Cantonese Speaking with a Native Speaker
What better way to learn a language than communicating with a native speaker in real-time? Duolingo can only teach you so much, but from personal experience, the most important aspect of learning a new language is to be fully immersed in its culture to understand the intricacies of that language. I am completely fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English, which gives me the advantage of explaining how you can improve effectively in the language you understand.
