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 used to study and live 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.

I can teach both Mandarin and Cantonese at all levels and topics, to beginners or advanced learners, kids or adults, daily conversation or business Chinese. My preferred teaching style is guided conversation. I also use a whiteboard to teach during my class as I find many students find this helpful when studying Chinese characters. With students of all levels, I like to use articles, short audio/videos, or prepared questions to get students thinking and speaking the language they are learning.

My teaching skills allow my students to speak Chinese with great confidence. To make sure you get the most out of my course, I will prepare a detailed handouts and voice clip for you after each lesson, so that you can go back and practice the language by yourself. I feel really happy to introduce the Chinese culture and current affairs when teaching related topics with my students, as I believe this will help them to get a more comprehensive understanding of the language.

I will professionally design a tailor-made study plan to help you achieve your goals in an enjoyable and effective way. I hope you will enjoy the positive and productive learning environment that I create.

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.
