Dear all,

I am located near Geneva, Switzerland and I offer Chinese and Math lessons. Since 2016, I have been providing tutoring services to school students and adults on a weekly basis. I have over 4 years of experience teaching math to international students, ranging from primary school to high school, using English as the medium of instruction. In addition, I have also been tutoring Chinese to both adults and children at TheLanguageCenter in Ferney Voltaire.

I tailor my lessons according to the individual needs and interests of each student. If necessary, I can provide exercises for practice at home as well as supplementary notes for the lesson.

Thank you for your attention. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives.

I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job.

I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!

Chinese is one of the six official languages of the United Nations, official language in five territories. Speaking Chinese can not only give you access to explore Chinese history and culture, but also an edge when competing for an important position as China will play a major role in world affairs in the future. Besides, studies have shown that learning Chinese utilizes both temporal lobes (while English speakers use only the left). If you want to increase your brain power and keep your brain on the ball, it’s time to learn Mandarin.

The lessons are designed based on individual students' profiles and needs so that the students can have a personalized learning experience with the most suitable learning module.
The lessons are highly interactive so that the students are able to engage in class and practice the language as much as possible.
The class setting ensures the students be able to communicate in Chinese in the shortest time possible.

1, my classes are designed to be lively and interactive, making the process enjoyable for you of all levels. Expect a dynamic and energetic atmosphere that keeps you motivated.
2, Immerse yourself in the Chinese language from day one. My immersive teaching approach ensures that you not only learn the language but also experience the culture firsthand. Practical scenarios, real-life conversations, and cultural insights are seamlessly woven into each lesson.
3, I am well-versed in the nuances of Chinese ancient poetry. Dive into the timeless verses of renowned poets and explore the cultural and historical significance behind each masterpiece.

I'm Yuan, a native Chinese speaker, and I'm excited about the opportunity to share the beauty of the Chinese language with you on Apprentus. My passion for the language and culture, coupled with my native proficiency, makes me a dedicated and enthusiastic tutor.

Mandarin may be more interesting than you thought it was. It's a language that's unlike any other. There are no plurals, no genders, and no tenses. This course introduces students to standard Mandarin Chinese language and is designed for students with no or minimal previous background in spoken or written Mandarin. Students in this course focus on learning essential vocabulary, practicing pronunciation, and understanding simple grammatical structures. This knowledge prepares students to effectively communicate in Mandarin on a limited range of topics related to everyday situations. Students practice listening and speaking in real-life situations, learn to read
and write Chinese characters and examine how culture and language interact in China.

In-class activities and course assignments aim to assist students as they develop the four-factor proficiency and confidence necessary to initiate simple conversations. We can also have extracurricular experiences, and we can meet in our spare time for face-to-face communication, which will provide ample opportunities for practical participation.

Most likely, your first few Chinese classes will focus mostly on listening and speaking, and will gradually incorporate reading and writing as you go, since these are the most difficult of the four.
