Award-Winning Mandarin Chinese Tutors in Shawnee Mission, KS

Laura ...I have studied Chinese language and culture for the last seven years and have extensive personal experiences and interests in the culture. My approach to teaching Mandarin Chinese is to start with what most Chinese teachers skip over: fundamentals. I emphasize the need to teach the fundamentals of grammar to allow an easier, clearer, and more natural progression in learning language and building new skills. I also believe that culture and language are inseparable and...

Robert We all learn differently. As Albert Einstein said, "Study is not the learning of facts but the training of the mind to think." Thomas Edison said only five percent of people think; another 10 percent think they think; and 85 percent would rather die than think. Let me help you be one of the five.... We all learn differently and at our own pace. Also, we often know more than we think we do. We just need to ask the right questions. Tutoring should be about identifying where a student is having problems, and then helping them devise their own strategies to address those problems and find answers on their own.

Lian The Montessori philosophy, "individual, freedom within limits," is the teaching style that I adopt. Especially when teaching world languages, it is very hard to frame all students in the same box since each student's learning style is different. Knowing and observing a student's strengths and personally designing the teaching method based on each student's or parent's expectation is my goal.

I have experience tutoring students of all ages(K-college) in Math and Mandarin. I love watching my students grow and build confidence. My goal is to help my students get motivated to study and improve their problem-solving skills. ... I would identify the difficulty and determine whether or not we need to review again or take a fresh approach to the concept to be learned. I teach the student using different skills that he learned easily.

There is lots of enjoyable time between us. I love playing games. I...
