Teaching Methods and Techniques
As a tutor, I focus on building a solid foundation while keeping lessons engaging and practical. I combine structured explanations with real-life examples to help learners truly understand how the language works. My background as a programmer gives me a logical and systematic approach, so I break down complex concepts into smaller, easy-to-understand steps. I also encourage interactive practice, using role-play, daily dialogues, and personalized exercises to make sure students can apply what they learn in real situations.

Typical Lesson Plan
A typical lesson starts with a quick review of what we covered last time, followed by a short introduction to the day’s topic. We then move into practical exercises, such as speaking practice, vocabulary application, or grammar drills, depending on the student’s needs. At the end of each lesson, I provide a short summary and suggest homework or real-world tasks (for example, writing a short message in Chinese or practicing pronunciation with an audio clip). This ensures steady progress and continuous improvement.

What Makes Me Different
What sets me apart is the combination of my programming background and my teaching approach. As a developer, I am detail-oriented, patient, and used to solving problems step by step. I bring that same clarity and precision into teaching Chinese. I also understand the challenges of learning a new system (like how programming languages can feel at first), so I know how to support students when Chinese feels “too complex.” I focus on helping learners feel confident and motivated, not just memorizing.

Who the Course Is For
My courses are suitable for beginners, intermediate learners, or anyone interested in improving their Chinese communication skills. Whether you are a student preparing for exams, a professional working with Chinese colleagues, or simply a language enthusiast, I can adjust my lessons to your goals. I also provide tailored lessons for people with specific needs, such as business Chinese, travel Chinese, or conversational practice.
