About Me
italki teacher since Aug 22, 2018Interest topicMusicSports & FitnessMedical & Healthcare
I love learning languages. It's interesting to have a conversation with foreigners in their native language. Actually, one of my life goals is to speak more than six languages. In my spare time I also like playing the guitar and piano. My personality is quite easy-going and humorous, so it's very easy for me to make friends.Me as a Teacher
In 2017, I met a Mexican in China. After he went back to Mexico he contacted me because he wanted to learn how to speak Chinese. At that time, he had been taking some Chinese lessons with a native Spanish speaker. However, I found that his teacher was making some mistakes and realized I could be his Chinese teacher. Since our common language is English, this also gave me an opportunity to practice my English language skills. I discovered that I could use pinyin to help my friend pronounce Chinese correctly. The Chinese language is very different from other languages - both in grammar and pronunciation. This is why I teach my students step by step, in a fun and relaxed way. :)My lessons & teaching style
When we are first born, all we can do is cry and listen. As babies, most of our time is spent listening and trying to imitate how to make sounds like our parents. That's why the listening and speaking are so important. I'll focus on these parts first. :) Chinese characters seem difficult to learn because they are quite different from other languages. I'll teach you how to read them if you want to pass an exam or test. Since I'm a funny guy, I like to teach students in an interesting way. Therefore my students can learn Chinese in a good mood.My teaching material

1000% my preferred learning style.
First class was informal yet prepared! Plus it was structured around actual vocabulary I would use.
Felt comfortable and challenged to practice my Chinese and expand my comprehension.
I’m really looking forward to learning more with Vincent. He seems like the type of teacher that is here for your long term goals of ACTUaLLY learning Chinese to use.
I didn’t feel ashamed or 尴尬 (a word I learned today!) about my beginner skills. Felt like I was learning from a friend who met me at a cafe to practice my Chinese seriously.
If you’re looking for an interactive, kind teacher that will push you and teach you useful vocabulary tailored to your convos, I’m one lesson in and very happy.

Again an awesome lesson with Vincent. I enjoy his proactive attitude while he paid attention to the questions I sent upfront. It didn't feel like studying, which is awesome!

even though I'm a very beginner I could be able to have a small conversation with him, he helped me out really well and taught me many new vocabularies, this is a very interesting and new method to me, that he immediately tries to start speaking Chinese and makes me speak it as well he is very patient and considerate! Xiexie laoshi!

Conversation practice with Vincent is always so much fun and very comfortable. We talk about so many different topics and he is not shy to suggest new or alternative words for things I might be saying a bit funny. Thanks again, Vincent!

Always lovely to practice conversation with Vincent. He is so patient and does not hesitate to type out all the words I didn't know. Can't wait for our next lesson!
