My Approach


 

 

The world of Chinese language and culture is rich and exciting. My goal is to make the learning process both enjoyable andeffective for you. You will progress comfortably at your own pace, with lessons tailored to your specific needs.

 

     

Here are answers to some frequently asked questions.

 

 

 

w   Who are your students?    

     

I offer lessons to the full range of learners - from complete beginners to those at an advanced level.


My students are business people, travelers, students, those studying for Chinese proficiency exams (e.g., HSK), teachers, and individuals    fascinated by Chinese language and culture who simply want to learn more.

     

     

w   How are lessons structured? 

Lessons are generally one-on-one but small group lessons can also be arranged. Scheduling can be flexible, based on your needs.

     

     

w   What materials do you use?

     

Learning materials are tailored to the goals and level of each student. A high-quality textbook provides a basic framework for progressing in the language. 

     

Beyond that, a hallmark of my approach – and one that my students particularly enjoy – is a range of authentic, interesting and relevant materials that I    select or develop based on your specific goals, needs, and interests. These may include articles from Chinese newspapers and periodicals, Chinese TV programs, Chinese games and puzzles, and    learning tools and exercises I develop specifically to match your needs.


     

w   What do your students say about you?

        

“I was formally introduced in a business meeting in China and, thanks to your help, I was able to communicate at a basic level in Mandarin -something I was never able to do before.  

This made a very positive impression on my Chinese business partners and helped strengthen the relationship. Now I want to learn more.”  

- Swiss businessman

 

“I was in China twice already this year. I feel much more comfortable knowing that I can make myself understood. Not only that,but you make the lessons fun. Thank you very much for your help.”

- Frequent business traveler to China


       “The practice we did gave me confidence that I could

       express myself properly in Mandarin.”

        - Student

    

     

w   Can I try a lesson to see if it fits my needs?

     

Absolutely.
