👋 Introduction

Hey there, this is Alex from Taiwan!

Successful learners are happy learners. As someone who struggled with learning foreign languages myself, I understand the importance of creating a fun and engaging learning environment. That's why my goal is to provide a positive, cheerful, and stimulating environment for adults to learn Mandarin, where all learners can enjoy their learning, achieve their goals, and eventually become independent life-long learners.

💡 What I can provide
・Taiwanese Mandarin
・Support at all levels: I teach students at different levels. If you are not sure what level you are in, we can have a trial lesson to know it better! You will receive a detailed report after your trial lesson. This report will outline your strengths, weaknesses, and suggestions on how I can best support you.
・Customized lessons: Feel free to send any requests, questions, or anything via Message on the Verbling platform. I will discuss this with you and make a customized plan for your request. It would be great if you knew what you would like to learn (e.g. skills in listening/reading/writing/speaking, test preps, or any certain topics you want to learn about Mandarin and/or Taiwanese/Chinese culture).
・Explanations in Mandarin, English, or Japanese

📜 A little about me…
・Experience in Mandarin teaching for 7 years, mainly focusing on 1-on-1 customized lessons, from 0 to hero!
・Passionate about language learning (Japanese, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Indonesian, Hindi, Vietnamese, Arabic and Cantonese)
・Specialized in linguistics, education, calligraphy, and tea!
・Certified as an intermediate Taiwanese tea sensory evaluator
・Worked as a business analyst, tech-consultant and travel planner

📚 Teaching Philosophy
My approach to teaching Mandarin is rooted in the belief that language learning should be fun, engaging, practical, and tailored to each student's goals. I focus on creating an immersive environment where students can develop their skills naturally through conversation and real-world applications.

My lessons are interactive and conversation-based, helping you build confidence and fluency quickly, in a humorous, fun, engaging environment!

Key aspects of my teaching philosophy include:
・Personalization: I adapt my lessons to suit your learning style and objectives, whether you're aiming for business fluency or casual conversation.
・Immersion: I conduct lessons primarily in Mandarin, gradually increasing complexity to build your confidence and fluency.
・Cultural Integration: Language and culture are inseparable. I incorporate Chinese cultural elements into our lessons to deepen your understanding and appreciation of the language.
・Practical Application: I emphasize useful, everyday Mandarin to ensure you can start using what you learn immediately.
・Balanced Skill Development: While focusing on your primary goals, I promote balanced progress in speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
・Positive Reinforcement: I believe in creating a supportive environment where mistakes are viewed as learning opportunities.
My ultimate goal is to guide you toward Mandarin fluency while fostering a genuine passion for the language and culture!

💪 Specializations
・Oral Expression (free talk, accent reduction, interviews, presentations, free speech, etc.)
・Reading Comprehension
・Bilingual Comparison (grammar differences, word choices, slang, translations, etc.)
・Intercultural Communication (cultural differences, customs, history)
・Calligraphy
・Travel Planner
・History and Culture in Taiwan
・Tea Culture in Taiwan

🪄 Teaching Style
My teaching style is dynamic, interactive, and tailored to each student's needs. Here's what you can expect in my lessons:

1. Interactive Learning:
・Conversation-based lessons to maximize your speaking time
・Role-playing exercises to practice real-life scenarios

2. Multimedia Integration:
・Use of audio, video, and visual aids to enhance learning
・Interactive digital tools for vocabulary and character practice

3. Error Correction:
・Gentle, constructive feedback to improve pronunciation and grammar
・Emphasis on self-correction to build confidence and autonomy

4. Cultural Insights:
・Integration of Chinese idioms, proverbs, and cultural anecdotes
・Discussions about current events in Taiwan and the World to improve comprehension

5. Flexibility:
・Ability to adjust lesson pace and content based on your progress
・Openness to incorporating your interests into lesson materials

I aim to create an engaging, effective learning environment where you feel challenged and supported in your Mandarin journey!

⛔️ Disclaimers
・Regrettably, I do not accept students below 18 years old for the time being, due to my methodology and teaching styles.
・My expertise lies in teaching Taiwanese Mandarin, which is perfect for those interested in Taiwanese culture and daily life. If your goal is to learn Mainland Chinese Mandarin, I'd be happy to recommend some fantastic teachers who specialize in that specific dialect.
