Dinara

My name is Dinara, and I have been teaching Chinese for over 15 years. I hold a degree in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language. Languages are my true passion — I speak several of them, and this experience helps me better understand the challenges my students face when learning Chinese.

When teaching, I focus on what matters most: communication. My students don’t just memorize characters and grammar rules — they learn how to speak Chinese confidently. Many beginners are intimidated by Chinese writing, but I make it simple and engaging by introducing characters through associations and stories. After all, Chinese characters are pictures:
• 人 means “person” (a figure walking, seen from the side)
• 从 means “to follow” (two people walking together)
• 众 means “crowd” (three people together)

The Chinese language is in many ways easier than English. Its grammar is straightforward, without endings, prefixes, or suffixes. In Chinese, many words are very visual and logical — they are compound words, similar to English examples like blackboard, toothbrush, or snowman.
For instance:
• “to fly + machine” = airplane
• “ice + box” = refrigerator
• “fire + mountain” = volcano
This way of building words makes Chinese vocabulary easier to understand and remember.

Due to a busy teaching schedule, I currently teach exclusively online. I also lead a team of native Chinese teachers who are fluent in English, Spanish, German, French, Dutch, and Italian. I personally trained each of them in my teaching method. With this system, students can progress from beginner to HSK 5 in just two years, enabling them to use Chinese for work purposes and to study at universities in China. My students have successfully gone on to work at the European Parliament, large corporations, Chinese companies, and pursue studies in China.

Beyond lessons, I create opportunities for students to immerse themselves in the language. Every summer, I organize a four-week study program at a Chinese university. We also hold regular visits to Chinese restaurants, where students practice their speaking skills in a real cultural environment.
