I have been engaged in the field of Chinese as a foreign language since 2012, with 7 or 8 years of working experience. Many students have been taught, aged between 3 and 60. Most of them are Japanese. But there are also Europeans and America 、 I’ve received professional training to teach all levels of learners, from beginner to advanced. I also have a wealth of experience in preparing students for HSK exams. これまで7年以上教育経験があります。私が住んでいる所は日本人が多く、今の生徒もほとんどが日本人です!私も日本語を学んだ時に、言語の学習にはたくさん話すこと、たくさん練習することがとても大事だと感じました。私は日本人への発音、文法、会話の指導を得意としています。きれいで、流ちょうな中国語を話したいと考えている方、私と勉強してみましょう。 我从2012年开始就一直从事对外汉语这个行业了,有着7,8年工作经验。教过的学生很多,年龄在3周岁到60岁之间。

I'm a patient and open-minded person. I can speak standard and natural mandarin. In my class you will achieve a lot.My hobbies are traveling, reading and studying deeper about Chinese culture. I am a big fan of Laozi(老子) and Zhuangzi (庄子), two of the greatest philosopher in China. I'm curious about many topics. Recently, I am taking some online courses on: 1. Artificial Intelligence; 2. Python (Computer Language); 3. Economics of New Structures; 4. World History. So, we can discuss any topics that you are interested in. I've been traveling and working in foreign countries. I am always excited to communicate with people from all over the world and different backgrounds. Just like you, I like to learn foreign language too. I can speak English fluently. I can handle daily communication in Indonesia language. And recently I began to learn Hindi. So I know what’s important to learn a new language. And I can understand you and help you to improve your Chinese. I worked in Cambodia in 2018. My local colleagues learned Chinese from me . With my help they improved their Chinese a lot. And they said that my way of teaching and explanation was very effective. I will listen to you first, and have an idea of your learning purpose and your language level. Then I will design the lessons to fit your needs. In my class you will feel pleasant and relaxing and you will achieve a lot. Looking forward to meet you!

    It has been 3 weeks since I’ve started learning Mandarin with Pei in anticipation for my trip to Taiwan. I truly could not have chosen a better teacher! Pei is extremely kind, encouraging, and patient! After gauging my level and discussing my goals during the trial lesson, she was able to immediately provide me with the perfect learning plan based on my needs; and it has been going flawlessly! I am progressing quickly, and feel that I have built up the confidence I’ll need to communicate with ease during my trip. One thing I love about Pei’s lessons is how immersive they are. She always encourages me to use Mandarin wherever possible, even if I happen to say something in passing that’s unrelated to the lesson. That way, the language rolls off my tongue more naturally. She also teaches me everyday vocab & phrases used in Taiwan that aren’t found in textbooks, which I love! I can't recommend Pei enough!

    I have enjoyed working with 小雪 for about a year, as I progressed from HSK3 to HSK6+. She is well read and spontaneously conversational across a wide range of topics spanning from culture to STEM. For example, she was able to correct and guide my production of domain-specific vocabulary in fields ranging from Chinese animated cow film memes, to emergent abilities in LLMs, to Scandinavian pigeon behavior...

    My daughter is at a primary school in Singapore. Her school Chinese teacher often scolded her, and she came to dislike Chinese itself. Anna 老师encouraged her so much and gave her practical study tips, and they practised the oral exam and compositions together. In her composition test, she remembered what Anna 老师 had told her. She is much more positive about Chinese now. I highly recommend this teacher to any child who has lost confidence in Chinese.

    In the beginning I trialled a few other teachers but stuck to Catherine because I found her lessons the best. I have been learning with Catherine for 6 months and have found her lessons to be engaging and very helpful. She can vary the lessons according to my needs. Initially I was travelling to China, so we did travel related lessons but now I want to improve my conversational skills, so she further adapted the lesson. She sends notes and homework after each lesson which helps me stay disciplined. I highly recommend Catherine as a tutor. Jiāyóu!

    I've been studying Mandarin Chinese at the beginner from Maggie for a few months now, and I like the approach she takes. She gives instruction just in Chinese as much as possible, using objects around us and word sheets she's made as chances to introduce vocabulary. She's also willing to explain usage patterns (e.g. grammar, word choice), again in Chinese as much as possible with written examples. Today I managed to describe my weekend to her in Chinese. It took some back and forth, but she used every difficulty as a chance to teach something new.

    Recently my schedule has been packed and work keeps me extremely busy, yet just thinking about my Chinese lessons fills me with joy! I feel so, so lucky to have found Jianxin, a truly one-of-a-kind Chinese teacher! For someone like me who tends to bury himself in work, learning Chinese has never felt like a task or a burden. On the contrary, it's become my little escape — a quiet, joyful pause in the middle of a hectic life. I honestly believe that only Jianxin could make learning a language feel this light and magical. In class, her boundless energy and wholehearted dedication to teaching have deeply inspired me, and little by little, they've changed the way I think about learning. For me, studying Chinese isn’t a short-term goal — it’s a journey I want to pursue long-term. Every lesson gives me more than language skills; I soak up her passion and energy, leaving class excited for what’s ahead. I have the deepest admiration for Jianxin — she's truly special!

    Jan ist der perfekte Lehrer. Immer pünktlich, die Ruhe in Person und er kann gut mit meiner tiefen Frustschwelle umgehen. Der Unterricht ist immer ein guter Mix aus kleinen Dialogen, Besprechung von Fragen und Vokabular, Aussprachetraining, Einheiten aus Lehrmitteln und freien Themen. Sein Deutsch ist wirklich ausserordentlich gut, so kann ich auch mal erklären, was ich eigentlich sagen wollte, wenn ein von mir zusammengebastelter Satz mal unverständlich ist. Meine Syntax ist teilweise an den Haaren herbeigezogen und er checkt trotzdem was ich sagen wollte. Beim Fremdsprachen lernen habe ich eine recht hohe Hemmschwelle einfach zu sprechen und sätze auszuprobieren. Bei Jan habe ich das mittlerweile verloren und kann hemmungslos üben. Ich kann Jan nur wärmstens empfehlen: immer höflich, nett, aufmerksam, kompetent und motivierend. Sein Unterricht strukturiert, lehrreich und interessant.

    今天我们复习了语法和(词(?))。Today, we reviewed grammar and vocabulary. Yasmine was very patient with me when I had forgotten the pronunciation of some characters. First, she would give me a hint; if I still couldn't remember it, she would tell me the word again and and the meaning. I appreciate her calm and patient way of teaching me, because helps me gain the confidence/motivation to practice, instead of avoiding it due to fear of making mistakes. 谢谢老师。

    I've studied with Dan regularly for five years and I recommend him for all levels of learners! It can be difficult to find a reliable teacher on italki, but he has been very reliable for a long time. He provides the structure and the materials. We follow the HSK textbooks and he is very flexible, working at whatever pace suits you, slowing down when something needs more time. He also has deep knowledge of Chinese culture and history, which really helps put things into context and is always fun to learn about. So much of what I know about China comes from Dan. He is well-prepared and very experienced.
