For beginners, I will start with pronunciation, teach students to recognize Chinese characters. I will also add some knowledge of Chinese culture based on the content of the class to make the class lively and interesting. In the classroom, I will also use some activities, using flash cards, teaching software and teaching plans to assist teaching. The homework part is not mandatory and I will arrange it according to the different characteristics and learning situation of the students.
For intermediate and advanced level students, I will focus on students' comprehensive abilities. I will increase the amount of article reading, and I will also give topics for students to express their opinions.My teaching material

Sofia thoroughly prepares each lesson and provides materials that meet me at my level and help me make progress toward my goals. During the lesson she provides positive, encouraging, supportive feedback. She follows up each lesson with helpful notes and steps I can take to make progress between lessons. Thank you, Sofia!

I had my first lesson with Sofia and I loved it. It's exactly what I was looking for, a mix of culture and language. Sofia is very patient and made me feel comfortable right from the start.
