Native Mandarin tutor bridging languages and cultures I have been teaching Mandarin online one-on-one since 2019 and worked at one of Brazil’s largest online Mandarin schools for over a year. Having learned Portuguese as my second language, I understand the challenges of learning a foreign language and find it meaningful to help others learn. 自2019年起,我开始在线一对一教授中文,并在巴西最大的在线汉语学校之一工作了一年多。 结合自身学习葡萄牙语的经历,我深知学习外语的挑战,也觉得帮助他人学习语言是一件有意义的事情。 Ensino mandarim online desde 2019 e fiz parte da equipe de professores de uma das maiores escolas online de mandarim do Brasil por mais de um ano.

5年教龄拥有CTCSOL资格认证的专业教师 在我五年的对外汉语教学中,我专注于帮助零基础学生快速入门并突破难点。 ①零基础教学:我从第一堂课就让学生用汉语自我介绍,建立成就感。语音教学采用"身体记忆法"——用手臂画"V"字形学第三声,想象吹蜡烛学"ü",让发音可触可感。 ②实用导向:课程围绕真实场景设计。"生存汉语"模块涵盖打车、租房、看病等日常需求,配套角色扮演。曾有位法国学生学会"我肚子疼,需要去医院"后两周内就用上了,说这是最重要的一句话。 ③难点突破:语法点采用"拆解+情境+高频重复"。教"把"字句用"整理房间"游戏,教量词用实物配对,让抽象概念直观化。"了"的用法通过"故事接龙"在语境中自然习得。 ④系统训练:设计"三维训练法"——精听模仿、情景对话、写作打卡。每节课设置"微演讲",从1分钟自由表达开始,逐步建立自信。 五年间,我见证了学生从畏惧汉字到通过HSK考试、从不敢开口到用汉语工作的蜕变。我相信好的教学是点燃兴趣、搭建阶梯、陪伴成长。

I'm here to help all level learners to improve their Chinese faster. ✍️For beginners, my English is fluent, so I can use that as a medium language to explain the grammar points and new vocabulary to help you understand better and solve your questions more efficiently; ✍️For intermediate and advanced learners, I think the fastest way to scale new heights is to practice with a native, learning common phrases and colloquial sayings that you can't find in any textbooks.

Certified Chinese teacher with 6 years experience After graduating from university, I began teaching Chinese online. Over the course of three years, I have interacted with and taught over 200 students, conducting more than 1000 lessons. During weekends, I teach at a Chinese school in Munich, where many Chinese children born in Germany face unique challenges in learning Chinese. I believe that Chinese is an elegant and deeply meaningful language, and I thoroughly enjoy delving into the profound meanings behind Chinese characters. I hope I can assist you in learning Chinese and help you develop a love for this language :)

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.
