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!

➤ On the telephone, in a meeting, in front of a client, his family (...), relevant and successful speaking must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and impactful messages, creating a balance between the message received and message sent. Coherence between form and content. The important thing in communication is not the confidence we have in ourselves, but the appearance of confidence we exude. It’s also not about being structured or coherent but simply about appearing to be so. And to do this, there are targeted tools.

➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince/persuade and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your audience relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one' exchange, aiming to challenge one's audience or interlocutor, taking care of both the content and the form. , all in a professional or personal setting. Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality. Allowing you to move from fear to pleasure in front of the public.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of oratorical art (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma, etc.) to ensure consistency between content and the form
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing.

✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.
✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation.
✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'.
✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive.
✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication).
✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication.
✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language.
✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging.

✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly.
✓ Avoid letting your emotions show through and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills.
✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively.
✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability

✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party.
✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects.
✓ Optimizing internal and external relationships are professional fundamentals, so the structure of meetings, dialogue within the company, and mastery of change communication are invaluable.

(...)

➤ In addition, you will leave with concrete and immediately useful tools, developed in the form of practical lightning modules: learning to say no, getting a delicate message across, selling an idea, expressing disagreement with an authority, getting a "yes" without upsetting someone, resisting the pressure of a too-quick "yes", calming someone who has taken your words badly (...).

➤ In short, public speaking skills are now an essential cross-functional skill for asserting oneself, informing, negotiating, and persuading. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to enhance the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the audience's expectations; by making a lasting impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by incorporating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an engaging and convincing presentation outline; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; and by appropriately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live, to have an external perspective and areas for improvement) , so that you will be able to apply them immediately, and from the first session.

➤Progress following these sessions is noticeable from 2 to 3 sessions (*study 2026).

➤ Make your words a formidable asset. Ready to take things to the next level?

My teaching approach focuses on making English learning engaging, interactive, and personalised to each student's needs. I believe that the best way to improve a language is through consistent practice, real-life conversations, and building confidence in communication rather than simply memorising grammar rules.

My Teaching Methods

I use a combination of conversational practice, grammar exercises, vocabulary development, pronunciation improvement, and interactive activities. My goal is to create a comfortable learning environment where students feel confident speaking English, asking questions, and learning from their mistakes.

What a Typical Lesson Looks Like

Each lesson begins with a short conversation to practise speaking and review previous topics. We then focus on a specific area of improvement, such as grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or academic English. Lessons include practical exercises, discussions, and personalised feedback to help students recognise their strengths and areas for improvement.

What Makes My Lessons Different

As a university student studying Business Management with Business Analytics at Lancaster University Leipzig, I understand the importance of effective English communication in academic, professional, and everyday situations. Having studied in an English-speaking educational environment, I aim to make lessons practical, enjoyable, and relevant to real-life experiences.

Who Are My Lessons For?

My lessons are suitable for secondary school students, university students, and adults with a basic to advanced understanding of English (A2–C1). Whether you're preparing for school exams, improving your academic writing, developing professional communication skills, or simply looking to become more fluent and confident, I will adapt the lessons to your individual learning goals.

All lessons are conducted entirely in English to encourage immersion and help students develop natural communication skills.

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!

Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality.

My teaching approach focuses on making English learning engaging, interactive, and personalised to each student's needs. I believe that the best way to improve a language is through consistent practice, real-life conversations, and building confidence in communication rather than simply memorising grammar rules.

My Teaching Methods

I use a combination of conversational practice, grammar exercises, vocabulary development, pronunciation improvement, and interactive activities. My goal is to create a comfortable learning environment where students feel confident speaking English, asking questions, and learning from their mistakes.

What a Typical Lesson Looks Like

Each lesson begins with a short conversation to practise speaking and review previous topics. We then focus on a specific area of improvement, such as grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or academic English. Lessons include practical exercises, discussions, and personalised feedback to help students recognise their strengths and areas for improvement.

What Makes My Lessons Different

As a university student studying Business Management with Business Analytics at Lancaster University Leipzig, I understand the importance of effective English communication in academic, professional, and everyday situations. Having studied in an English-speaking educational environment, I aim to make lessons practical, enjoyable, and relevant to real-life experiences.

Who Are My Lessons For?

My lessons are suitable for secondary school students, university students, and adults with a basic to advanced understanding of English (A2–C1). Whether you're preparing for school exams, improving your academic writing, developing professional communication skills, or simply looking to become more fluent and confident, I will adapt the lessons to your individual learning goals.

All lessons are conducted entirely in English to encourage immersion and help students develop natural communication skills.
