Hi there! I’m Dennis, a passionate and certified professional Chinese teacher with over 5 years of experience teaching students from 7 years old to adults across the globe!
🎓 Credentials: Certified by CTCSOL (Certificate for Teachers of Chinese to Speakers of Other languages ), which validates my professional competence in teaching Chinese, and Mandarin grade A certificate (Putonghua/mandarin proficiency test), which proves my standard pronunciation.
🔥 Methodology:
• Communicative & Student-Centered: My classes use a blend of communicative, project-based, scene and task-based approaches, and Total Physical Response (TPR) techniques. This dynamic mix ensures that every lesson is engaging, interactive, and tailored to your learning style. I incorporate the communicative approach and project-based learning to align with ACTFL standards, ensuring that students can use Chinese in real-life situations. When teaching HSK courses, I focus on building a solid foundation in vocabulary, grammar, and test-taking skills. The comprehensive courses I teach are designed to comprehensively enhance students' listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. For conversational courses, I emphasize practical language use and cultural understanding. For younger learners, I often adopt the engaging teaching method and the scene-based method to make the learning process fun and interactive.
