Chinese for beginners – Learn Chinese in a practical and simple way

From 25 C$ /h

Would you like to learn Chinese but don't know where to start?

I am a native Chinese speaker and I offer online private lessons for beginners and students who want to improve their Chinese skills in a practical, simple and pressure-free way.

The classes are tailored to your level and goals. We can work on vocabulary, pronunciation, conversation, comprehension, reading, and expressions useful for everyday situations.

If you're starting from scratch, we'll learn the basics of the language step by step, including pronunciation and intonation. If you already have some knowledge, we can focus on improving your conversation skills and building your confidence when speaking.

My goal is for you to be able to use Chinese and English in real-life situations and progress at your own pace, in a calm and comfortable environment.

The classes are 100% online and are aimed especially at students looking for a flexible and personalized way to learn Chinese.

Extra information

No prior knowledge of Chinese is required, nor is it necessary to purchase any specific materials.

Before the first class we can talk briefly about your level and your goals to tailor the classes to your needs.

All you need is a computer or mobile phone with an internet connection and a quiet place to take the class.

About Me

Hi! I'm Yuyang, a native Chinese speaker who has been living in Spain for several years.

I enjoy helping others learn languages in a simple, practical, and stress-free way. I understand that learning Chinese can seem complicated at first, especially when it comes to pronunciation, tones, and Chinese characters. That's why I try to explain each concept clearly and adapt my lessons to the student's level.

My classes are especially suitable for beginners and for people who want to learn Chinese for travelling, studying, working, communicating with others, or simply discovering a new language and culture.

As I also speak Spanish, I can explain Chinese directly in Spanish whenever necessary. This can be especially helpful for Spanish-speaking students who are starting from zero.

In my classes, we can work on pronunciation, tones, vocabulary, conversation, reading, writing, and everyday expressions. I adapt to each student's pace and goals, and I prefer learning to be gradual, practical, and enjoyable.

For me, learning a language is not just about memorising words and rules. It's about gradually gaining the confidence to actually use the language.

If you want to start learning Chinese from scratch or improve your current level, I'd be happy to accompany you throughout the process.

Education

Professional training in International Trade in Barcelona.

I completed my studies and professional training in Spain, while also developing practical knowledge of the Spanish language and culture.

Chinese: Native language
Spanish: Advanced level for everyday and academic communication
English: Upper-intermediate level

Experience / Qualifications

I am a native Chinese speaker and have been living and studying in Spain for several years.

My international experience has allowed me to use both Chinese and Spanish in different everyday and academic contexts, as well as understand the difficulties that people may face when learning a language different from their own.

In my lessons, I use a practical and personalised approach. I first get to know the student's level and goals, and then adapt the content of each lesson accordingly.

I am particularly interested in helping beginners who want to start learning Chinese from scratch and need a teacher who can explain concepts clearly and patiently in Spanish.

I can also help students with conversation, vocabulary, pronunciation, comprehension, and everyday expressions.

Growing up bilingual in German and English was as challenging as it was exciting and an experience that inspired my love for languages. Now I would love to share my knowledge on effortlessly mastering the ins and outs of these two infamous languages with you!

The lessons are hands-on, easily understandable and true-to-life, so you can go and use what you've learned right away. Moreover, I like to customise the lessons to the topics and hobbies that interest you so that we can build progress on familiar sole, have you make better connections to the language and have an overall better learning experience.

If it works with your schedule, I would also strongly recommend that we make homework a part of your class structure.

I am confident we can use whatever foundation and experiences you have to help you meet your language goals - whether you just want to smooth out the kinks or start from the very beginning.

You and I can figure this out together!

Experiència de més de 20 anys donant classes d'anglès i català a grups reduïts d'ESO i Batxillerat i classes de repàs en el sector de les Humanitats.
Doy clases de inglés desde hace muchos años. He impartido a grupos reducidos y a particulares de repaso (ESO y Bachillerato). Me desplazo. Busco estabilidad y continuidad para todo el curso. Enseñar es mi vocación.

Por las mañanas trabajo en una empresa de telemárketing en BCN en un ambiente multicultural donde el inglés es nuestra lengua vehicular y a partir de las 16h tengo disponibilidad.

Actualmente soy profesor de inglés en la Academia English Studio, en Cornellà de Llobregat en turno de tardes. Todos los niveles y edades. Barajo la posibilidad de dedicarme a la docencia también en horario de mañana, siempre y cuando la oferta para este horario fuera de mi interés. En el turno de tarde soy autónomo. Busco estabilidad y continuidad en Academia o similar para todo el curso y en verano.

My name is Xavier.
I was born in Barcelona... a long time ago. I grow up in this town, but now I live a bit far from here. I studied at the University of Barcelona and in Huddersfield (near Shefield, Halifax, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool,...not very far from York: quite nice places and better people), and I've been teaching Catalan, Spanish, Phillsofy, History and English for a long time...since I was 16. What happened? Very short, I promise: I was walking down the street two years ago, from just opposite this private school, and I thought myself: well, you might enter this place and see. I like English language very much... and the UK,... but I don' t have a poster of the Queen on my bedroom's wall. It was a sort of a blind date. And there she was: her smile, her diligence, effectiveness. Eva listened to me. And after two weeks she was texting me for a class. Please, Xavier, can you cover for some classes? And here I am. English Studio, Academy of English in Barcelona, where I used to be a teacher until Covid 19 knocked at the door of our lives, and teachers and students had to be at home.

Professional Objective: English teacher.

Morning shift:

Professional experience
More than 15 years in several Contact Centers as an Agent or as a Team Leader or Supervisor. Companies: Teletech, Telefono Permanente, MST, Teleperformance and Promofon.
As a Team Leader / Supervisor: more than three years in Teleperformance and Promofon, (ONO), making sure the group of Agents were appropriatly trained and equipped to resolve doubts, problems and change requests; makintg sure the team could respond effectively to Account Managers ` requests for further information and , when necessary, take proactive action to ensure they were aware of an issue. And last but not least, every day monitoring work, keeping an eye on the activity of premium learners, ensuring the team was taking the necessary proactive action, either by phone or email.
I had to support very often other colleagues in accordance with business needs and to share ideas to improve business practices and the quality of the service.

Qualifications: Universitat Central de Barcelona, Law Studies.

My style of teaching focuses on conversations based on everyday situations. I think that conversation, whether with beginners or with more advanced levels, is a very effective way of facing grammatical and pronunciation challenges. Each class is personalised to the needs and interests of the students.

Along with grammar and conversation classes, I prepare students for official Cambridge exams. These classes are focused on understanding the format of the exam, the requirements and tips for passing each section.

I am Carolina and I am a native English teacher from Ireland. I have taught over a hundred students, both in school and online as private students. I have plenty of experience preparing classes and helping students to improve their written, oral, aural and English.

I am preparing students for the B2 examination, and I also teach business english to students from large corporations such as Paypal.

The class is about you, so whatever you need, I tailor my class around you and your goals. I always try to make the classes as engaging as possible and I will first ask you about your interests. I combine your interests and make personalised English lessons that focus on specific objectives for each class. We often do revisions and go back over material so that nothing is forgotten.

Most of my students have a really good time, we laugh a lot and we forget that we are learning.

About me: I studied English Literature and Spanish in Trinity College Dublin, and then I obtained a TEFL qualification. I am teaching in La Salle in Barcelona and I am giving private English classes online to students and professionals.

I look forward to hearing from you and if we are a match.

I am an experienced and certified mathematics tutor specializing in a range of curriculums, including AS and A-Levels, IGCSE, GCSE, SATs, Edexcel, and the International Baccalaureate (IB). With a proven track record of guiding students to success in these rigorous exams, I understand the unique challenges each curriculum presents. My approach is designed to meet each student's individual needs and learning style, ensuring that they receive the tailored support necessary to excel.

Mathematics can often seem daunting, but my goal is to help students build a deep understanding of mathematical concepts. I believe that a solid foundation in the basics is crucial, and I work to ensure that students grasp fundamental principles before moving on to more complex topics. This method not only boosts their confidence but also prepares them for advanced problem-solving scenarios. I utilize a variety of teaching methods, from visual aids to interactive exercises, to cater to different learning styles and make the subject more relatable.

In my sessions, I focus on developing effective problem-solving strategies. I guide students through step-by-step processes for tackling various types of mathematical problems, helping them to analyze questions critically and approach solutions systematically. This analytical skill is invaluable, not just for exams, but for future academic pursuits and real-world applications. I encourage students to ask questions and engage in discussions, as this fosters a deeper understanding of the material.

I also recognize that exam preparation involves more than just understanding the content; it requires familiarity with the exam format and types of questions they will encounter. I provide targeted practice using past papers and mock exams, which allows students to hone their test-taking skills and time management. This practice is essential for building the resilience and confidence needed to perform well under exam conditions.

Whether you're looking for support with fundamental concepts or advanced topics, I am here to provide clear explanations and structured guidance. My lessons are designed to be engaging and interactive, ensuring that students remain motivated and focused. I believe that learning should be a positive experience, and I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable expressing their concerns and challenges.

Throughout my tutoring career, I have seen firsthand the transformative impact of personalized education. Many of my students have achieved outstanding results, including high grades and scholarships, thanks to the tailored support I provide. I take immense pride in their accomplishments, and my dedication to their success is unwavering.

In addition to my expertise in mathematics, I emphasize the importance of a growth mindset. I encourage students to view challenges as opportunities for learning and growth. This perspective not only helps them in their studies but also equips them with resilience that will serve them well in all areas of life.

If you're looking for expert tutoring that delivers outstanding results, I invite you to book a lesson today. Together, we can embark on a journey toward academic excellence in mathematics. I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and unlock your full potential. Don't hesitate to reach out; I am here to support you every step of the way!

Hello! I'm Violeta, and I study at the University of Barcelona. I recently graduated with honors from high school. I lived in England and have family there, so I've always been immersed in the language. My classes would be dynamic and conversation-focused, but I'm flexible to suit each student's needs. I have all kinds of materials for all areas of English (writing, reading, listening, etc.). My classes are for primary, secondary, and high school students. Levels A1, A2, B1, and B2. I can also help prepare for the English university entrance exam (Selectividad), which I took with a perfect score. I love teaching because it's a way to help others by sharing knowledge. Teaching and learning are among the most important things in life, and it should be a fun and enriching process, which is what I like to convey in my classes! Thank you!
