Learn Cantonese Online from One of Our Tutors on Skype

Hi, my name is Afra. I am a Chinese native speaker who can speak Mandarin, Cantonese, and English. I have been studying and living in Australia for 7 years. I have a bachelor degree in Commerce (majoring in Finance and Accounting) and a master degree in Financial Analysis at the University of New South Wales in Australia. After graduation, I have returned to China and joined a foreign bank as a business manager assistant for 4 years and now I am a mother of a 3-year-old son. Recently I am also studying French with my son once per week.

I am well experienced in the way of teaching Chinese as I am provided many chances to interact with people from different ages, backgrounds and countries. When I was in Australia, I had joined the Chinese club and participated in Mandarin study activities, helping University of New South Wales students who were seeking to improve their future employment opportunities to speak, read and write Chinese.

Back in China, I have met many foreign colleagues from business and I teach them how to communicate more confidently when doing trade or business in China. Now for my little boy, I teach him Mandarin, Cantonese and English every single day. I teach my son with two principles: Patient and Fun. I will keep with that when I continue to teach languages with other children.

I have a great passion on seeking effective ways of teaching languages. I normally use whiteboard and flashcards to demonstrate course contents. I practice Chinese with students in realistic situation, through interesting and up-to-date topics. I prepare a detailed guideline for students to do revision by themselves after class.

I am the perfect person right here to help with your Chinese language study. I can teach Chinese at all levels. Whether you are beginners or advanced learners, I will carefully design a tailor-made study plan to help you achieve your goals in an enjoyable and effective way.

Hi, my name is Meiko. I am from Guangzhou, China. I have been teaching Mandarin and Cantonese to foreigners in Guangzhou face to face and also on Skype. I have a bachelor degree in international trading business from Shaoguan University. My English level is CET-6 (College English Test level of 6 in China) and BEC Vantage level (Cambridge English). I can also help you prepare up to and including HSK level 4.

I will communicate with you on your learning targets and preferences before we start the lesson. If you prefer your own material, please send it to me and I can teach it accordingly. If you would like me to prepare materials, I can design a tailored made lesson and modify it accordingly. I put effort to prepare my lesson plan for students and adapt it to student’s learning progress. During the lessons, I explain the teaching plan and how we can achieve it with mutual effort.

Below is where I worked before:

- 1 year in an expatriate agency to assist visa for foreigners in China. Meanwhile, I helped to match foreign teachers to language schools accordingly.

- 2.5 year I worked in an international preschool as customer service role to build good relationships with parents. I also taught kids Chinese and English to see how their language develop. Meanwhile, I managed a team of 20 teachers.

Mostly, I focus more on speaking and recreating your own sentences in order to explain the sentences and vocabularies to better understand when and how to use the language. As for children, I focus on talking with them and encouraging them to repeat the sentences and make their own sentences. I use photo stories, whiteboard, drawing etc. Each lesson, you will have a file document of what we learn. I can teach adults, beginners to intermediate, and kids from 5 years old to teenagers.

On the way of teaching, I am very glad to receive feedback from you to better prepare the lesson plan and achieve the goal. I am looking forward to meeting you.
