Hello! My name is Maggie. I come from Taiwan, where I was born in Taichung city. I have taught Mandarin to kids as young as 5 yrs old. I am currently teaching my own child who is 2yrs old; by now she already knows initials/finals and is able to speak some words! In Taiwan, we use Zhuyin (ㄅㄆㄇㄈ) and traditional Chinese characters but I can also offer the standard Pinyin (pīnyīn) and simplified characters if you like!

For lessons with children, as a mother, I know how to communicate and interact with kids. I will be using cartoon cards, toys and some songs to focus on my student's listening and speaking skills! I completed a bachelor's degree in business in Taipei city, specializing in Financial Engineering and Mathematics. Aside from that, I have worked as a receptionist, tour guide and barista in Australia; and I also run my own surf brand company. For business learners of Mandarin, through these experiences, I would be happy to guide you on business lessons if needed! I am a traveler and love learning new languages. I even spent a whole year working in Australia and 2 months on exchange in Oxford in the UK. I am open to welcome you, if you would like to learn about Taiwanese culture; we can customize your own Mandarin lessons!

For the trial lesson, I would like to know your current Chinese level and the reason you want to learn Chinese. These are important for our first meeting to achieve your learning goals efficiently. Learning a new language is not hard. Back in 2015, I left my home country without speaking a word of English, and now I am happy to be teaching the Mandarin language to others. All you need is to be confident and to believe in your abilities!

For you to know me better: I have been a surf instructor for 3 years and I am now an aspiring piano teacher as well. I am an adventurous and open-minded person who loves challenges in life. You won't regret starting your lessons with me!

Hi! My name is Tina. I grew up in China in Guangzhou. I also lived in Hong Kong and South Korea, but now I live in Taiwan. I graduated from Guangdong University of Foreign Studies. My major was international business. I have three years of teaching experience, mainly about tutoring foreign students Chinese, and children English from six to eleven years old.

During the teaching session,I plan and prepare my own teaching materials and use props (such as cards, songs, games, videos, etc.) to engage students in learning (this is especially useful for children). I also design each student’s study plans and learning outcomes. By observing each student's situation, I provide solutions tailored to each student’s problems. In class, I like to discuss the culture and history of my country, and I also encourage students to talk about their own country. It is my teaching philosophy to have a relaxed and light-hearted classroom experience.

After class, I will give students homework and tests to evaluate their progress. I will give feedback to help and encourage students to make more progress. If needed, I can tutor students to take the HSK exam from level 1 to level 6.

When I was at the university, I have studied general economics, as well as management classes including business management, marketing, financial management, so if you want to learn business Mandarin, I have a good theoretical background with business topics. I can also speak and understand some Korean since I lived in Korea for some time.

My previous students had learned Chinese quickly, and they recommended me to other students. If you would like to learn Mandarin or Cantonese, I hope to have the opportunity to become your tutor.
