![]() Chinese in Steps - Mandarin tutor in London Hello everyone, 大家好(dà jiā hǎo) My name is Gang Chi and I came from a beautiful coastal city called Dalian in north-east China. As a native Chinese speaker, I am bilingual in both Mandarin and English. After finished my business English study in Ireland in 2000, I went back to China and worked as an English language trainer in a private adult English training institution. I have gained a lot experience in teaching during the two years of working there. In 2006, I came to London to pursue a further education in a UK university and at the same time, I worked in different industries, where I had various opportunities to work with people from different backgrounds. This working experience has evoked me a lot of interests in the teaching of Chinese language and its culture. In order to consolidate my teaching skills and to become a qualified Chinese language teacher, I studied a certificate course in teaching Chinese as a foreign language in School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in 2009. During the study in SOAS, I have gained a lot of professional knowledge in language teaching in the UK and at the same time, I have gained a lot teaching opportunities either inside the school or outside as a part-time Mandarin teacher. My teaching style is relaxed and fun, while focusing on the four essential skills in language competency: listening, speaking, reading and writing, each lesson is infused with a culture element, where you will not only learn about the Chinese language, but also its deep, rich culture. I am also very adaptable to meet any individual learning requirement, from colloquial Chinese to business Chinese, from beginner’s level to advanced, I am here not only as a mere language tutor to you, but also as an attentive listener, an good communicator, an effective motivator and a good friend in support of mutual learning. If you are interested in or have any enquires about my teaching service, please feel free to contact me. Thank You. 谢谢 (xiè xie) Gang Chi [Please email me through the link above - I will contact you as soon as I can] Tuition charges Tuition fees: £35 per hour Other Categories: MANDARIN teachers/ private tutors Chinese Culture for Businesspeople - Lecturers Chinese Interpreters & Translators |
