Hello, i´m Jürgen from Germany. I´m looking for a manadarin (simplified) teacher who either has a specialised degree in teaching foreign students or has extensive experience in teaching students from NON ASIAN language backgrounds.
I want to quickly achieve HSK, i want to start end of January. I am going to live in Tamsui, and i would prefer the teacher to come there. Hourly is negotiable and might include commute.
I prefer morning classes from 9-12 - i´m looking to do 6 hours/week splittable in 2x3 or 3x2. Only weekdays.
Hi I have been living in Taiwan for three years. Currently I am working with an excellent tutor once a week. The tutor's schedule is quite busy so I need to supplement the courses especially to practice conversation skills. I use a text book and would like to continue working with the format I am using and the vocabulary.
Hello everyone! My name is Jason (31 years old/male) and I'm an English teacher from America. I have lived in Taipei for about 6 months. I am looking for an experienced Chinese tutor to help me with my spoken Chinese and listening skills. I previously took one Chinese class in America 2 years ago and currently have a tutor (but am unhappy with their performance). While I can understand a fair amount of Chinese and can accomplish many day to day tasks, I still suffer from the same problems as most foreigners - awkward grammar, word choice and poor pronunciation at times.
I need a teacher who has demonstrated experience teaching Chinese to foreigners and can deliver a structured curriculum with well planned lessons and listening/speaking drills. I expect to be assigned thoughtful homework assignments. You should be FLUENT in Hanyu pinyin and able to explain grammar questions quickly and efficiently. "I don't know how to explain this exactly...let me think about it and we'll talk about it next time" is not an acceptable answer. It should go without saying that your English should be at an advanced level. I am looking for two times a week (total 4 -5 hours per week) in the late mornings/early afternoons on weekdays (I typically work in the late afternoons/evenings). I'm flexible on the days as long as they're reasonable spaced. I would like to meet at the cafe across from my house in Gongguan.
While I am friendly and (I think) fun to work with, I am also a serious student and I expect a serious teacher. I am currently working out of Practical Chinese Vol 2 although I am open to using different materials if you have a compelling reason. If you are interested in helping me improve my Chinese, please tell me a little bit about your experience, teaching successes and the student you have worked with the longest/helped to improve the most. Please make sure to tell me about your teaching style/methods. Please also be up front about your rate.
Happy New Year!

Recently I am hired by Taiwanese company in Taipei and my son will live with me from the 1 Feb 2015.

So, he needs to study very an intensively Chinese and I need a private tutor to work with my son after his classes at least 3-4 days per week for the next 2-4 months from the 5th Feb 2015.
I would like a Chinese tutor available in Taoyuan City. I've been studying Chinese on and off for a couple of years and am needing help putting sentences together.
Hi there, my name is Karina. I am posting because I am in need of a new tutor as my last one moved out of the country. I have the textbook Audio Visual Vol. 1 and am hoping I will not need to purchase new materials. I'm free on Monday or Tuesday evenings.
A little about myself, I'm 24 years old. I moved to Taiwan in May with my boyfriend to help him open a restaurant. I'm loving my time here, but I feel I would enjoy it more if I could speak the language :) Hopefully my tutor will be able to help me with some restaurant lingo as well as the basic conversational. My passion really lies in food, restaurants and the occasional beer :P
I would hope I can relate with my tutor so we have lots to talk about!
I live at City Hall MRT, and am free around 5pm.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello,
I will be in Taipei at the end of the month and would like to learn some Chinese, I like to mix in so this way I can enjoy the city and the culture.
The reason why I am looking for a tutor and not a machine or a course is because I like to learn in a fun spontaneous and relaxed way.
Have a good day.

Hi!
My Mandarin is pretty bad, and getting worse, so I'd love to find a tutor to help me practice basics with, and then lead into more advanced conversation.
I've studied with TLI and a private tutor before, so my Mandarin isn't too bad, just a little rusty.
Ideally I'd like a tutor to help me with reading menus, listening and carrying on conversations!
I live around the Beitun area in Taichung.

Hello, I currently study Chinese, but will sit my final exam in just over 2 months time. My level is perhaps high intermediate, but my ability to converse freely and express my opinions in Chinese is still not great. I'd like to hire a teacher who can offer 2-3 classes a week for the next 2 months for extra practice.

Hello, i am an american born chinese, recently relocated to Taipei from NYC. I speak some Mandarin, but would like to become fluent. Also, I do not read or write the language, so i would also like to learn that as well.
Looking for a tutor to help primarily with listening comprehension and speaking. I studied Mandarin in University, but haven't formally studied in five years. Looking to review and learn new vocabulary.
Hi, My name is Eoin (pronounced Owen), I am 29 and looking to learn chinese. I have lived in Taiwan a few years but am still at the beginner level but want that to change now. I am free most mornings and afternoons and live in the Songshan area of Taipei.
I've already been learning Chinese for about 1.5 years (in Europe with not much practice) but now I would like to really improve my Mandarin by visiting Taiwan and really speaking and practicing it everyday for a few months.
I already use Pinyin and Simplified characters, so I want a teacher who can teach with Pinyin and Simplified characters. People in Taiwan love Zhuyin and Traditional characters but I really don't want to learn these... I only want to learn Mandarin using Pinyin and Simplified characters. I hope that's not a big problem.
I need to practice my speaking and get some fluency in regular, everyday speech. I enjoy conversations about life, the future, news, faith, etc. I don't need business or technical speech. I like watching dramas that help me learn too. 金大花 is one of my favorite dramas.
I've learned about 600 characters and a few hundred words already. Now I just need to be in an environment where I can practice using Mandarin speech. This is why I'm thinking of visiting Taiwan for a few months.
I look forward to hearing from you.
(Also, it's okay if you don't have a degree :-)
Much thanks!
We are looking for a Chinese teacher for our 5 year old boy. He is fluent in both Chinese and English. You can read to him and teach him Chinese and he can talk to you in Chinese and help you with some English.
