你好!I have a degree in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language and have lived and worked in China for close to 10 years. I'm also an English teacher, so I definitely know the differences and difficulties of learning these languages!
If you're a complete beginner, I will start off by introducing you to the basic pronunciation and grammar rules. After 2-3 classes, when you get a feel for the language, we'll move on to specific units. I'll help you learn relevant vocab and grammar, and how to express yourself.
If you're more of an intermediate or advanced speaker, you'll love my speaking classes! Each class focuses on a topic or article (news, magazine or blog article) and you'll practice speaking by discussing these topics. These discussions will also help you gain a better understanding of Chinese society and culture.
Of course, classes will be modified according to your needs and wishes. You'll just have to let me know after you book a lesson with me!

Hey everyone, I'm Mabel who is a full-time traveler and also a part-time online Chinese tutor.
I've been traveling for 7 years now, I've done tons of different things during my travel, Au pairing in Belgium, the US, and Mexico; Working holiday in New Zealand; Backpacking in Europe and Latin America; Working at a resort in the Maldives; volunteering in South Korea and more.
I'm considering that I'm a patient person, very outgoing and open-minded, and maybe a little bit crazy too(in an adventurous way).
I have 4 years of experience teaching Chinese since my first au pair year in Belgium in 2014. And I'm still giving online Chinese classes to my host kids whom I was taking care of as Au Pair in the US, but there isn't much work and I'm thinking about why not give classes to other people who want to learn Chinese, and this always makes me super proud! Thank you for learning my mother tongue!
I will mainly focus on conversation and also pronunciation, as a traveler and also a language lover, I learn some languages during my traveling. I picked up some French and also Spanish, not much but I totally feel you. So, I think communication is the key to getting to know the people and the culture first, but don't worry we'll go over grammar too, It is all-important.
But of course, the class can be tailor-made, everyone has different opinions and I will love to help! But I will be honest that I have a lot of experience with beginners.
Thank you for taking your time to go through my long-talk profile and hopefully I have a chance to talk to you.
See Reviews From StudentsOur research suggests that the average hourly rate for private Chinese lessons in Cheltenham is between $25-$35. Since online tutors don't have to travel to you and often live in countries with a lower cost of living, their hourly rate tends to be significantly lower.
If you prefer in-person lessons over online learning, LanguaTalk may not be the best fit for you. Instead, you can search for a tutor on a local service listing website or place an advertisement in your area. However, we do encourage you to try online learning – you have nothing to lose by booking a free trial session. Many students find that the online experience is just as good as in-person learning, with the added benefit of access to higher quality tutors at a lower cost.
Some tutors on LanguaTalk may also provide in-person lessons in Cheltenham, but most only offer online lessons as it is more convenient and allows them to work from home. Additionally, most tutors are not located in Cheltenham because they are living elsewhere in the world. If you book a lesson with a tutor, you should assume that the lesson will be conducted online.
Some students might be unsure about learning Chinese online because they think it will be very different from in-person learning. However, many students find that the online experience is similar and they often develop strong relationships with their tutor.
Once you start a video call with your selected tutor, you'll be able to communicate with them as if you were in the same room. The tutor may also share learning resources with you (such as newspaper articles or YouTube videos) and you'll be able to collaborate in real-time using tools like Google Docs or Dropbox Paper.
If you're new to LanguaTalk, we'll provide you with a credit for a free trial session. Many, but not all, tutors offer these for free. If a tutor does not offer a free trial, the trial price will be 30 percent of their full lesson price, allowing you to still try a session at a reduced cost.
Trial sessions last 30 minutes. They allow you to determine if the tutor is a good fit for you and get a sense of what online learning is like. The tutor will assess your level and try to understand your needs and interests so that they can tailor any lessons you choose to take. You'll be encouraged to speak as much as possible in Chinese, but you can also speak in English if needed.
If, after your trial session, you don't feel that the tutor is right for you, you can book a trial with another tutor for 30 percent of their full lesson price.

One of the benefits of online lessons is that you can learn anytime, anywhere. When you choose a tutor, simply check their calendar to ensure that they have times that fit your schedule. Some tutors may have limited availability due to high demand.
Lessons are taught one-on-one to ensure that you receive customized instruction. During the lessons, your tutor will use a variety of teaching methods and resources, including language exercises, conversation practice, and cultural notes, to help you reach your learning objectives.
All lessons take place via video call. Your tutor will normally give you a choice of calling tools, all of which are easy to use.
Most students take 55-minute lessons. However, some tutors also offer the option of 30-minute lessons. If this option is available, it will be noted on the tutor's profile (below their pricing and above the 'Buy Lessons' button).
In general, 55-minute lessons are recommended for most students. 30-minute lessons may be suitable if you're taking lessons for your child or if you have an intermediate level and only want conversation practice.
