Ancient Greek Alive Hi there, my name is Zen. If you want to learn Ancient Greek as a living language, then you are in the right place! I will not only teach you grammar, but also how to read, speak and write the language as a language, not as a puzzle to be solved. I also teach conversational English, Shanghainese and Mandarin. Just get in touch! I have taught Ancient Greek to both complete beginners and students with some prior knowledge of the language. My teaching is highly tailored to each student’s needs, and I’m always open to discussion and questions. I also have experience helping Chinese students learn languages that are very different from their own, making the learning process smoother and more effective. GREEK: we will start with the textbook Athenaze (Italian version), though I’m also open to other options such as Logos, Alexandros, or Thrasymachus. The main goal remains the same: to be able to read the ancient authors as soon as possible. Once we finish the textbook, we will progress to unadapted texts by authors like Xenophon and Plato, and later explore works by the tragedians and the epic poems of Homer. SHANGHAINESE: we will learn this Chinese language through a natural way of speaking and conversations. I would provide a word document of key phrases and sentences written in Shanghainese and pinyin for our class every time. Update: on vacation until Oct. 5th

Native Speaker & Former University Chinese Lecturer / Learn without Fear! / HSK Expert/ Bilingual I was born and raised in Shanghai, China, and hold both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Teaching Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages (TCSOL). I am a certified Chinese teacher with nearly 10 years of teaching experience. I previously taught Chinese language and culture in Europe to learners aged 16+, and now teach students from around the world online. I specialize in helping adult learners improve their Chinese for daily communication, work, travel, and academic goals. I also have extensive experience preparing students for HSK, AP Chinese, MCT, and BCT exams. My teaching philosophy is "Learn Living Chinese." I believe language is meant to be used, not just memorized. My lessons focus on practical communication, helping you use Chinese confidently in real-life situations. I teach in both English and Chinese, while encouraging an immersive Chinese-speaking environment whenever possible. Outside the classroom, I enjoy traveling and exploring different cultures. I'm also an animal lover, and my toy poodle sometimes makes a special appearance during my online lessons! If you're looking for a patient, professional, and supportive teacher, I'd love to meet you in a trial lesson. Together, we'll create a personalized learning plan and achieve your Chinese learning goals. I look forward to meeting you! 🎯

    Excellent Shanghainese lesson, as usual! Zen helps with not only language, but the culture as well. They also were very accomodating with adapting the lesson to my learning needs (for example, speaking new words and phrases more slowly in Shanghainese so I could understand what was being said easier). I would highly recommend Zen to anyone interested in learning Shanghainese.

    Liza是一位才华横溢的教师.我一直想学习上海话,并尝试过多位老师的试听课,而丽莎的表现明显脱颖而出.通过Quizlet和其他学习材料,我在短时间内掌握了大量词汇,现在能够进行简短且不复杂的对话.她的教学灵活多变,能根据需求轻松掌握相关词汇,且丽莎会确保教学难度恰到好处. 显然,我正朝着流利掌握的方向迈进,而课堂上我们总是玩得非常开心,这正是学习应有的样子.如果你想跟她学习普通话或上海话,最好尽早预约课程,因为名额很快就会被抢光. 谢谢侬灵老师!

    Just had my first Shanghainese lesson with Wang Min, and I was surprised how much I enjoyed the class. We were able to quickly discuss my goals, discuss learning approaches and dive right in to learning. The book she is using covers most general topics, and Wang was very perceptive on which topics would be good or better skipped. She was very polite, supportive, and struck a great balance of speaking Shanghainese, Mandarin, and English that I felt kept a strong focus on Shanghainese but also helped me connect all the dots. Her overall approach was very engaging and I felt I really got a good amount of speaking practice in. Shanghainese is a really hard language to learn, and even harder to find a good teacher. Thank you so much, and I look forward to our next lesson!

    Really enjoyed Eva's Shanghainese lessons. Although I just had only my second lesson with her, I can already feel my Shanghainese improve by leaps and bounds. She's very polite, punctual and her English is good as well. Her lessons are well-structured and easy to follow. If you're looking for a professional Shanghainese teacher who is efficient and capable of delivering the course at a high level, Eva is the teacher to go for. Highly recommended and an easy 5 stars from me.
