An experienced voice coach of Mandarin I’ve begun my voice training since 2012 and started my career as an acting coach since 2016. I have taught many performers from high schools and organizations. I was once a theatre actor based in Beijing, and I also played different characters in multiple TV series before I went to middle school(my childhood performance looks like a piece of shit under today’s standards). There is no shortcut to master a language. Practice makes perfect. 我在 2012 年开始训练自己的声音,并于 2016年起从事表演指导的工作,为学校、机构和其它组织的人员训练声音。我曾经在北京的舞台上演过音乐剧和话剧,童年也出演过电视剧。 说好一门语言没什么捷径。熟能生巧

I have been teaching Chinese since 2016 . I Met most students during the time when I Studied in Japan and working in Singapore. Some of my students learn Chinese from Basic pronunciation ,I teach them very patiently. Some of them can not write Chinese ,I teach them write basic Chinese characters . The others ask me to correct HSK homework or working report, not only correct the mistakes but also find the reason why they made this mistake .The most impressed teaching experience is using role-play to do conversation courses. This part could help students improve their Oral Chinese quickly and effectively.

Practical Chinese for adult learners — from everyday communication to professional use at work I have experience teaching adult learners with different goals, including daily communication, work-related Chinese, and long-term language development. My teaching focuses on practical usage. I help students move from understanding Chinese to actually using it naturally in real-life and work situations. I adjust each lesson based on the student’s level, interests, and learning pace, so classes are structured, clear, and engaging. Many students find that after a few lessons, they feel more confident speaking Chinese and know how to apply what they’ve learned.

Frequently asked questions

What level of Chinese do I need to have before taking conversational Chinese classes?

Before taking conversational Chinese classes, it’s recommended that you have at least a basic understanding of the language, ideally at a beginner (A1) or lower-intermediate (A2) level. This would include being familiar with basic vocabulary, simple sentence structures, and common phrases. While it’s possible to start conversational lessons as a complete beginner, having some foundation in pronunciation (like tones) and basic characters will make the process smoother and more effective.

Conversational Chinese classes are designed to help you improve speaking and listening skills, so knowing some basic grammar and vocabulary will allow you to participate in conversations more easily. If you’re a beginner, your tutor will likely focus on building your confidence and helping you practice simple conversations. If you’re at a more intermediate level, the focus can shift to more complex sentence structures and deeper discussions.

Can I take online conversational Chinese classes?

Yes, you can definitely take online conversational Chinese classes, and italki is a great platform for this! It offers one-on-one lessons with native Chinese-speaking tutors who can help you practice speaking, improve your listening skills, and build your confidence in real-life conversations. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, you can find a tutor who tailors lessons to your specific needs, helping you focus on topics that interest you, like daily life, travel, or business Chinese. Online conversational Chinese classes are highly flexible, allowing you to schedule lessons at times that suit you, and you can learn from the comfort of your own home.

How many classes do I need to take to become fluent in Chinese?

The number of classes needed to become fluent in Chinese depends on several factors, including your starting level, learning goals, and how much time you can dedicate to studying. For beginners, fluency can take several years to achieve, with consistent study and practice. On average, it might take around 600 to 1,200 hours of study to reach conversational fluency, which can equate to about 1-2 years of regular lessons.

However, becoming fluent also involves immersion, practice outside of lessons, and exposure to the language in different contexts. The key is consistency – taking lessons regularly, engaging in conversations, and practicing vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. Additionally, actively using the language in real-world situations will significantly speed up your progress.

Setting specific milestones and working closely with a tutor on conversational practice can help accelerate your learning and give you a clearer idea of how many lessons you might need to become fluent.

Who are the tutors that will be teaching the conversational Chinese classes?

The tutors teaching conversational Chinese classes on italki are native speakers or highly proficient speakers of Chinese, with a variety of teaching backgrounds and expertise. Some tutors are professional language instructors with formal teaching qualifications, while others are informal teachers with extensive experience in helping learners improve their conversational skills. These tutors come from diverse regions where Chinese is spoken, offering a range of accents and dialects (Mandarin, Cantonese, etc.).

Many tutors also specialize in different areas, such as business Chinese, travel vocabulary, or preparing for Chinese language exams. You can choose a tutor based on your personal learning goals, preferences, and their teaching style. Tutor profiles on italki include information about their qualifications, experience, teaching methods, and reviews from other students, helping you select the right match for your conversational practice.

How do I sign up for conversational Chinese classes?
