Ik als leerkracht
I am very passionate about both learning and teaching language. I put forward a unique classroom experience to my students with a multifaceted approach that covers the very same techniques I have used to vastly expand my own language abilities. I understand what it takes to be a good teacher, and understand what students really need at their own different stages of progression. With that in mind, it is my pleasure to help you get through this language journey efficiently and with the right tools.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My patience and experience will help guide you at whatever skill level you are, and without unnecessary pressure.

Keuze van de leerkracht
I speak Chinese at an advanced level and have had many different Mandarin tutors in my life, both in the USA and Taiwan. Yu Zhe is an exceptionally skilled teacher. He wastes no time during lessons, attends to student needs always, remembers past discussions and lesson content, and is very good at balancing between having a conversation and correcting your mistakes. He is efficient and thorough. To anyone looking to take their Mandarin to the next level, I would gladly recommend Yu Zhe!

Been learning with Yu Zhe for 2.5 years now and it's impossible to comprehend how far I've come in my Mandarin! Going from incoherently speaking small sentences to having full conversations for an hour is an incredible feat only possible with an experienced and caring teacher. I'll be back in 2026 for more lessons (and you should, too!).

Yu Zhe is one of the best Chinese teachers I've had -- he's always prepared for class, is willing to tailor the class to your interests and needs, and is extremely knowledgeable about various topics (including history and culture). I strongly recommend anyone wanting to improve or maintain their Chinese level take a class with Yu Zhe

Another very good class. I like that we use real life examples when dealing with book lesson grammar / syntax. It's good to see where I'm making mistakes and how to correct them.
