Interest topicReadingHistoryScience
I'm a native Mandarin Chinese speaker living in the Netherlands. I speak fluent English, Finnish and intermediate level Dutch. By education I'm a Bachelor of Science majoring in Mathematics. One of my personal interests is ancient Chinese (古文) which I'm self-learning currently, so as to understand Chinese classics better.
My hobbies are reading, walking, cycling and gardening.
Me as a Teacher
I try to make Mandarin learning less difficult and boring, more enjoyable.
I like to think of myself as punctual and responsible. I find it most important to keep the students interested and maintain steadfast improvement. In teaching Chinese I draw upon my own experience in learning foreign languages.

My lessons & teaching style
We’ll pick a topic of your interest and try to form a conversation in your own words (If forming a conversation is yet too challenging we’ll use graded reading as an example). This conversation will be the basis, from which you’ll learn correct new words w/ correct pronunciation as well as right sentence structure. If the new characters/words/structures are common ones, I’ll give you more examples.
I’ll type up the important words/sentences during the conversation. After lesson depending on the needs I’ll give you a summary, e.g. list of new words (for your app), audio of the correct pronunciation, or recap of the conversation as audio file, for you to review or practice with.

I’ve been having lessons with Li Peng for a year now and she has helped me immensely to improve my pronunciation, tones and sentence structure for spoken Chinese. She is very flexible in her approach and helpful in suggesting and implementing effective solutions!

I've been learning with Li Peng for over six months now, in which she has been instrumental in improving my spoken Chinese. Throughout this time, I've seen significant improvements in my tones, intonation, and sentence structures. Li Peng is very patient and has an engaging teaching style which makes the lessons very enjoyable and productive.

Had a great Mandarin lesson with Teach Li Peng today! We learned how to express time in Mandarin and had lots of opportunities to practice speaking. Specifically, I learned how to express days, months, and years. The lesson was engaging, and I felt like I made progress in my language learning. Looking forward to future lessons!

Today's lesson on Mandarin Chinese was a great continuation of the previous one. The lesson started with a brief recap of what we learned in the previous class, which helped to solidify my understanding of the different tones in the language. We then dove deeper into the topic of telling time in Mandarin Chinese.
Li Peng did a great job of explaining the different components of time, including hours and minutes, as well as how to express time in different contexts. I appreciated the practical examples and exercises that were included in the lesson, which helped me to understand the material more deeply and to apply it in real-world situations.
Overall, I found today's lesson to be informative and engaging. The combination of review and new material helped me to build on my existing knowledge and to expand my understanding of Mandarin Chinese. I'm excited to continue learning and to see what we will cover in the next class.

Today's Mandarin Chinese lesson was great for me as a beginner. We reviewed tones and learned to count and tell time. I found the lesson engaging and informative, and Li Peng's approachable style made it easy to learn. I'm looking forward to practicing what I've learned and continuing to build my Mandarin skills.
