Hello! ¡Hola! 你好！Nǐ hǎo!
I am Chia from Taiwan, and I grew up in Taipei. I am a native Mandarin speaker, and I also speak English and Spanish. I majored in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language. In addition, I have recently completed my master's degree in Spain, focusing on Culture studies. During my studies, I also delved into the evolution of Chinese characters, both traditional and simplified. If you are interested in this topic, we can discuss it in our classes.
Furthermore, if you have an interest in Asian, Chinese, or Taiwanese culture, we can also explore these topics during our classes.Me as a Teacher
I have 8+ years of Mandarin teaching experience, working with students of diverse backgrounds and age groups. My classes cater to beginners through higher intermediate levels and have been conducted in various settings such as the Philippines, Spain, private companies, universities, and online courses. My students, ranging from 3 to 65 years old and representing different countries and languages, all share a passion for learning Mandarin and strive to improve.
Apart from Mandarin, I offer cultural classes on Chinese traditions like calligraphy, paper cutting, and the history of festivals in China and Taiwan. If interested, feel free to contact me.My lessons & teaching style
My classes focus on Chinese grammar, speaking, and listening skills, which are essential for language fluency. We cover a wide range of materials, including Kids' Mandarin, Daily Conversation, levels from Zero to Advanced, Business Mandarin, and Mandarin exam preparation (TOCFL, HSK). If desired, I can also include classes on Chinese culture, reading, and short writing exercises. Traditional and simplified characters will both be taught. I provide free learning materials, so there's no need to purchase additional lecture notes.
If my current timetable doesn't suit your availability, kindly inform me, and we can work together to adjust our schedules. :)My teaching material

I’m impressed by individualized attention Chia gives in her lessons. I can tell she puts a lot of time into the PowerPoint slides that she prepares in advance for each lesson. Plus, she’s very fun to talk to! I learn a ton about Taiwan every time.
