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!

Our Mandarin Chinese and Japanese courses are designed for beginners who want to discover the language and culture, as well as intermediate students who want to improve their communication skills. At the beginner level, participants learn the essential basics: pronunciation, tones, and pinyin for Chinese; hiragana and katakana for Japanese; and simple vocabulary and grammar for introducing themselves, asking questions, and discussing everyday life. At the intermediate level, the program delves deeper into grammar, vocabulary, and oral expression to enable more natural conversations, reading dialogues or short texts, and writing more complex sentences, while discovering cultural aspects of both countries. Course content remains highly flexible and adapts to the needs, interests, and pace of each student, offering a personalized and motivating learning experience. Courses can be taken in English, allowing for better comprehension for native English learners or those who prefer to progress in a bilingual setting.
