I am a native Mandarin Chinese speaker. I've been tutoring Chinese for over 5 years. I have students from 4 years old to 60 years old. I think the journey of learning Chinese should be fun and enjoyable and I tried my best to make every one of my lessons that way. I can help you learn Chinese for traveling, business, academic studying or as a hobby.

My teaching philosophy is to learn a new language along with the cultural connotation behind that language. Every Mandarin Chinese learner should know some extent of Chinese culture not only for the sake of accumulating their knowledge bank but also for helping memorize the vocabularies and expressions faster and longer.

My specialty is teaching the Chinese language and Chinese culture at the same time. China is a great country with 5000 years of history and more importantly, it is one of the fastest developing countries in the world. I will not only help you with speaking, listening, reading and writing, but also, I can tell you various updated stories about China. Meanwhile, I will also tell you interesting anecdotes of Chinese idioms, slangs, and ancient stories so that it makes the learning process more accessible and memorable. You can learn more and faster with me beyond textbooks.

I am willing to tailor the teaching methods and learning materials individually depends on your needs. I like to provide individual attention to each student because everyone's learning style is different. You can ask any questions regarding our lessons during the class.

Chinese

Chinese

I hold a bachelor degree's in Chinese language and literature in Nankai University in China. I studied linguistic courses and traditional Chinese literatures from my college. In addition, I also got high scores on the Standard Mandarin test in Tianjin. In 2013 summer, I tutored two American college students in Chinese speaking and writing. From that job, I gained practical experience of tutoring students. With strong interests in cultural studies, I had a couple of language partners during my studies in the U.S. By talking to them frequently, I'm familiar with the difficulties and obstacles of learning Chinese as a foreign language. I've also tutored kindergarten kids in basic Chinese.

Highly recommended

Jingyi is simply awesome and I am very lucky to have stumbled across her in my search for a Mandarin tutor. In preparation for a trip to China, i am using software, books, immersion and Jingyi to learn all that I can. Jingyi is patient, flexible, kind and feichung knowledgable on all things China. She is also punctual and very understanding ... willing to go off on a tangent if that's where I decide to go (example ... cultural differences). In short, Jingyi should be your first choice if you want to learn Chinese!

Patient tutor

She has been perfect for my son who is in high school Mandarin. He helps him get through his homework while learning the material. He feels comfortable asking her questions, and she has been very flexible with his busy schedule. Thank you!

the best ever!!

I’ve been learning Chinese from Jingyi for exactly 1 year now and she’s the best tutor I could ask for!! Her lessons are always well structured and she’s great at explaining difficult grammar concepts. Usually, we’ll start by going through a power point presentation of the new vocab and grammar points with lots of pictures, review with the textbook, practice reading a dialogue, and then at the end we’ll read an article or watch a video about Chinese culture. She’s so patient with me when I can’t remember characters or words very well (which is quite often) and she is so so kind. She’s very knowledgeable and always has a good answer for my random questions about China. I usually dread when it’s time to take my language classes but never with Jingyi!! If you’re on the fence this is your sign to learn Chinese from her!! I promise you won’t regret it

Highly recommend

We've been using Jingyi for a few months and it has helped us out tremendously. Our third grader attends a foreign language immersion school virtually and we were unable to help her with questions and homework. Even after a full day of virtual school our daughter looks forward to her hour with Jingyi. She's fun and patient and we couldn't recommend her more.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

She and my daughter introduced themselves and discuss expectations. Jingyi was getting a feel for my daughter's level of understanding for the language. She appeared to be very upbeat and eager to teach.

Jocelynn, 16 lessons with Jingyi

Knowledgeable and Upbeat Tutor

I chose Jingyi because she seemed to have a lot of enthusiasm for teaching and sharing her culture from her bio. This was definitely true, and moreso in person! She is really sweet and smiley, encouraging, got me working with all of these new sounds right away and also had interesting cultural info to share. Highly reccomend her!

An excellent tutor with clear lessons

Jingyi has clear, prepared lessons to work through, and does an excellent job of introducing concepts and correcting all my mistakes in tone! She also always follows up lessons with worksheets so I can further study writing and reading characters.

Curtis, 26 lessons with Jingyi

Flexible and patient

Jingyi is patient and calm, but quick to laugh and has interesting stories about Chinese culture and language. You will enjoy working with her and feel positive about your progress...even if (like me) it is slow! I have especially enjoyed the way she provides culture lessons at the end of every session.
