Nan

Certified Tutor

I'm a qualified Mandarin teacher. I hold the certification as a Senior Chinese language teacher issued by International Profession Certification Association.

I have great enthusiasm for teaching Chinese as a foreign language. I believe that my students will feel the warmth and charm of the language.

My mission is to help students become proficient in Mandarin Chinese, and to equip them with the language skills and cultural understanding they need to communicate effectively with native speakers and thrive in a Mandarin-speaking environment.

I have systematically studied the theoretical basis of teaching Chinese as a foreign language and mastered a series of professional knowledge from the history of Chinese, the characteristics of Chinese characters to the part of speech of words, and grammatical structure. I have mastered the methods and professional skills of language teaching and made practical teaching plans, which cover all the basic vocabulary and grammar such as special sentence patterns, verbs, auxiliary verbs, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, complements, time expression, number expression, approximate number expression, address expressions, and common and practical expressions such as "" phrases.

I also mastered how to engage students in conversation and listening activities to help them improve their spoken Mandarin skills, and how to effectively implement specific oral exercises.

I have reading and writing materials appropriate for the students at all levels, and I have a smart board to enhance my online teaching, such as demonstrating stroke order for writing Chinese characters.

I am used to review and thinking in practical teaching and make improvement. I also pay attention to adding real life scenarios and cultural content in teaching to help students deepen their understanding and application of language.

I tailor my lessons for individual students at all levels and ages, help them achieve their goals, e.g., pass an exam such as GCSE or HSK.
