Practical Mandarin Chinese: Speaking, Reading & Writing

From 57 C$ /h

Hi! I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker from Taiwan, and I offer personalized Chinese lessons for learners at different levels and with different goals.

For beginners, we can start with pronunciation, Pinyin, tones, basic grammar, and useful everyday conversations. For intermediate and advanced learners, lessons can focus on speaking fluency, vocabulary, reading, writing, and natural expressions native speakers use.

I mainly use Traditional Chinese, but I can also explain the differences between Traditional and Simplified Chinese when needed. Lessons are flexible and can be adapted to your interests, whether you’re learning Chinese for daily life, travel, study, or simply because you’re interested in the language and culture.

My goal is to make Chinese practical and approachable, with plenty of opportunities to actually speak and use what you learn.

Extra information

No previous knowledge of Chinese is required. Before the first lesson, please let me know your current level, learning goals, and what you would like to focus on. Learning materials can be adapted to your needs.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Firstly, this lesson ensures that you as a student feel at ease! We will first get to know each other a little bit, and then you can tell me what you expect/want in a lesson, or what you specifically need. Step by step, I will ensure you, that you as a student, will learn the Dutch language. You will come to me for different reasons, for example for an integration exam, or because you live temporarily as an expat in the Netherlands and want to learn the language, others enjoy it as a hobby and others come to the Netherlands for love... There are so many reasons! My lessons are tailored to your wishes, you indicate what you want, and I will help you with it, which will make you feel more at ease. From teenage to adult students, from beginner to advanced and in between, I enjoy teaching my classes all over the world! Curious?! Then I hope to see you in my class! Greetings Carolina

Hello everyone. I'm a PhD candidate in applied mathematics and a former student of the MPSI/MP preparatory classes, with five years of experience tutoring mathematics. I offer math lessons for high school students up to the final year of high school (specializing in mathematics) in the S, ES, and L tracks, as well as for students in preparatory classes for the Grandes Écoles (PC, BCPT, and ECT tracks) and university undergraduates. My private lessons will focus on: - explaining the material - acquiring methods through solving classic exercises - developing learning tips and strategies to become efficient and independent in your studies. I draw on my teaching experience to guide each student toward success through personalized support. Lessons are tailored to each student's needs and profile (advanced learning, catching up, methodology, exam preparation, etc.). I teach mathematics in both French and English, and with my graphics tablet and screen sharing, the student can see exactly what I'm writing as if I were right next to them.

My name is Emilie and I am a veterinary medicine student. I also hold a Master's degree in health technologies and have almost 10 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry, including some time in a training-oriented role.

This experience has taught me to make sometimes complex concepts clearer, more structured and accessible, but also to adapt to very different learning styles. Some students need a diagram, a concrete example, to rephrase things aloud, or simply to proceed step by step.

Patient, organized, and attentive, I aim to provide a supportive environment where students can ask questions without fear of making mistakes. My goal is to help them progress, gain confidence, and acquire methods they can then use independently.

I primarily offer academic support from middle school to the final year of high school, particularly in science subjects, as well as English tutoring.

I believe one of the best ways to improve your English is to actually use it. My lessons focus on conversation and helping you feel more confident when speaking English in real-life situations.

I work with ESL learners, school students, and adults, adapting lessons to each student's level and goals. We can talk about everyday life, hobbies, school, work, or any topics that interest you.

As we talk, I help you build your vocabulary, improve your grammar, pronunciation, and sentence structure naturally. Instead of spending the whole lesson memorizing rules, you'll have plenty of opportunities to speak, make mistakes, and learn from them in a comfortable environment.

Whether you want to become more confident speaking English, improve your school performance, or simply practice your conversational skills, we can work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
