Fun conversation lessons- English or Chinese (Mandarin / Cantonese)
Hello! My name is Mary and I'm from Singapore. I love traveling, meeting people and learning languages. I'm a polyglot, that means I'm interested in languages and can use quite a few of them fluently: English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, etc.
My background
I've been living and teaching in Japan for over 20 years. I've taught at schools and universities, large corporations (JR East), government Ministries (MOE),and even the military (JIETAI).
During my time here, I've taught English (still teaching) to people from all walks of life: school students, teachers, home-makers, retirees, technicians, designers, company executives, physicians, lawyers, police officers and military personnel, etc. I've taught conversational Mandarin & Cantonese too, to students of all ages, both in person and online.
My focus and belief
I'm friendly, fun and energetic. In my classes, I focus largely on having a good time. My belief is that you learn better if you're having a good time. Of course, I also believe in helping my students improve their pronunciation, intonation, and fluency; and for them to reach the goal of communicating naturally and confidently in the language (languages) they choose to learn.
So, what are you waiting for? Contact me today, and let's start this exciting-and-fun-learning journey together!
Accents, spelling / characters:
-English: North American
-Mandarin: Mainland China (Simplified Chinese)
-Cantonese: Hong Kong (Traditional Chinese)

Luciana Scorza
Adaptive and personalized English classes for all ages.Hello! I'm Lulu, a bilingual English teacher with six years of experience.
I teach English using a flexible methodology so that the language can be learned, or improved, naturally.
My goal as a teacher is for students to learn to master the language in an authentic way.
-I don't do exam preparation.-
Classes revolve around interactive activities and spontaneous, in-depth conversations (to the extent each student allows). Communicating across languages is key to cognitive development and goes far beyond memorizing words: it's an opportunity to discover our own identity from a different perspective.
To begin, I always do a couple of tests that help me profile the student from various areas, not just the level, and with that, I work with the individual to develop the class strategy, from frequency to method.
I have worked with students of all ages, with diverse learning styles and unique needs, and while they often fit within certain parameters that correspond to pre-established teaching methodologies, each one is unique and deserves a personalized approach that respects their own pace.
Therefore, the course format will depend on the objective, the level of each student, and, above all, their interests, as these will serve as a basis for guiding the learning process.
Are these the typical classes you'd take at an academy? No, it's a more dynamic and personalized approach.
If you're looking for a place to learn organically and deeply, I'm here to help.

Mathematics, Economics, Mandarin Chinese and Test Prep TutoringMathematics is a powerful and versatile subject, applicable across numerous fields. For example, calculus and differentiation are crucial in engineering, while statistics plays a vital role in data science and finance.
Economics is broadly divided into microeconomics and macroeconomics, both of which form the foundation of economic theory. Different models operate under various assumptions, leading to distinct outcomes. Understanding these models and their real-world applications makes economics an intriguing and valuable subject!
Mandarin Chinese is an incredibly useful language, spoken by approximately 13.8% of the world's population—over a billion people. As a native speaker, I am excited to guide you through the learning process. I am patient and dedicated to helping you gain confidence in speaking, writing, and understanding Mandarin.
I've designed this tutoring program to be interactive and adaptable to your preferred learning style—whether you learn best through a Q&A-based approach or hands-on practice during class. You are encouraged to ask questions anytime, and I will also be available after class for further clarifications, with responses guaranteed within 12 hours. Mathematics problems often have multiple solutions—let’s explore them together!
Throughout this course, you will develop strong problem-solving skills in mathematics and economics by learning different approaches to tackling questions. For Mandarin Chinese, you will not only master the language but also explore cultural insights and practical applications in real-life situations. With consistent practice and guidance, you'll gain fluency and confidence!
