Mandarin Chinese is one of the most influential languages nowadays, and learning how to use Chinese like a native speaker will enable you to work with Chinese speakers, make international friends, and broaden your horizons. However, with its complexity, many people give up on learning Chinese easily. My job is to strengthen your Chinese learning skills and make sure you are accompanied on this long journey.

In this personalized class, you can choose to learn writing, speaking, listening, and reading. You can even choose if you want to learn simplified, traditional characters, or only pinyin. With a certified teacher who once taught at National Taiwan University, you will be learning with efficiency and accuracy.

Do you feel like Chinese is an insurmountable challenge? Many students get stuck on tones or grammar that seems to make no sense. My goal is for you to stop "studying" Chinese and start communicating in it.

I'm Anqi, a native Mandarin Chinese teacher with a degree in Audiovisual Journalism (Radio and Television) from China. My pronunciation is rated at level 1-B on the official Chinese Putonghua exam, one of the highest levels.

My students highlight my patience and how clearly I explain the logic of the language (5 out of 5 star ratings on another platform).

What I offer:
• Chinese from scratch and for all levels
• Preparation of HSK and YCT
• Business Chinese and training for companies
• Classes for children and teenagers

Online classes from anywhere in Spain and face-to-face classes in Asturias (Avilés, Gijón, Oviedo and surrounding areas).

The first trial class is to determine your level and your goals.
