I've been doing self-study for a long time, just vocab flashcards, listening to Mandarin and trying to understand it. But I'm here in Taiwan and would like to have better conversation skills. We'd focus largely on speaking, sentence construction, and listening. I'm eager to continue to do lots of self-study, so don't worry about me slacking, but I'd also like to find someone who can help make the process fun.
Thanks for your time,
Josh

Awesome tutor in da an taipei. Need help in reading and writing. Can speak conversationally. Need a tutor who is patient, knowledgeable, intelligent, and great at explaining vocabulary and new concepts. I’ve taken clases before at shida and forgot everything shortly after. I’m not looking to memorize characters, Bc I can do that myself. Looking for a true real teacher who can bring the language to life and engage in the learning process of the Mandarin Language.

I am looking for a private tutor for my 11 year old, who is in primary 5 at an international school. Has been studying Mandarin in school for 5 years. I am looking for a tutor for 3 hours a day M-F - preferably in the morning during the long holiday. This would be approximately 15 hours a week for one month. I want to focus mostly on class curriculum; however, I would also like to include social time - conducted in Mandarin - this could be going out to a bank, shopping or for a snack or even a bus ride - using Mandarin in daily situations.

I'd like to take advantage of my stay in Taipei to improve my level of Chinese- 2 hours per day, face to face, with the goal of finishing the volume elementary 2 of "road to success " (Beijing university press).
Principal goal is to develop oral automatism.
Hello, I am looking for a tutor to help me learn Chinese (mandarin) a couple nights a week. I have lived in Taiwan for a few years so I have basic survival Chinese skills but need to do much better. I have previously studied using the book "a course in contemporary Chinese". However I only made it through half the book. If you are interested in helping while making some money, please send me an email, my name is Brandon.

Hello,
I am David, 39 years old, married, from Croatia. I am working in Taiwan for 7 years as an airline pilot- captain at EVA AIR.
Partly due to the nature of my work, but mainly due to my laziness, I am ashamed to say that my Mandarin language skills are close to none.
I am looking for a structured, and highly planned and organized learning schedule, with lots of homework and a professional approach, so I can seriously get on with the quest of learning Mandarin. I am interested in all aspects, including writing (both simplified and traditional).
I am aware that this is a long-term commitment, but with the right tempo and continuous work, I believe that it is worth my time and effort.
I would need some flexibility with the course timings, because I keep on travelling and changing the time zones, mailny via face-time online, but i believe that real-life, face to face courses are necessary once or twice a month, to check the progress and get the real impressions. I have some time during just a few days a month in Taoyuan, Luzhu.
I would expect my tutor to prepare and organize the lessons, keep checking my progress, and motivate me to push harder. All that for a reasonable price, of course.
I am exploring my options and choosing the right tutor, so if you are interested, and have the resources, please write back, with a short description of your idea about what woud be the best course of action for myself, and make me an offer.
Thank you for your time.
Kindest regards,
David Domazet
I'm looking for a tutor to help my first grade child with homework. Can speak Chinese pretty fluently but will need help with zhuyin. We are looking for someone for 1hr a day (Mon-Fri). We are right at Dongmen Station - also open to going to you.
Thanks.
Hi, I'm in Taipei and I'm looking for someone who can help teach me how to speak Chinese in Taiwan. I've done some self-study but could use practice in listening and speaking, as well as confirmation of vocabulary. I am focusing on speaking right now and just getting by in every day situations. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from and learning from you!

Hello! I am an elementary school English teacher from the United States looking to improve my Mandarin! I will be living in Yilan for the next year, and I hope to improve my language skills, especially in listening in speaking. I would like to be able to meet face to face, and I am not interested in online lessons.
Hi, I'm Anthony. I've just started working in HK/Taiwan and I am looking for a tutor to help me learn Mandarin. I've taken Mandarin lessons when I was younger, but it never got absorbed. I'm finding this opportunity while in Taiwan to learn the language. Optimally the lesson would take place in my office in Songshan District during weekdays at 5pm or 6pm. I'm specifically looking to learn conversation skills in the business context.
I'm in Taipei for a few weeks. I would like to use this opportunity to learn as much spoken Chinese as I can, and be tutored as much as I possibly can. I have picked up a basic conversational level, over the years, but still have a whole lot of trouble, and much to learn, regarding listening comprehension and vocab.
Happy to learn from Taiwanese or Foreign speakers, regardless of national origin. No educational requirement. All I require is that you keep the English to a bare minimum.
I am a big fan of Anki, having experienced the power of SRS recently, in a non-language related workplace context. I hope to meet with you, talk and listen, then afterwards make flashcards for my own smashing, until our next session.
I am staying in Wanhua. Please msg me with $ rate and availability.
Thanks everyone, for your time.
I'm wanting to actually start working on my Mandarin since I've lived in Taipei for almost 3 years now and still haven't started learning. Added to that, my 1 year old speaks more Chinese than I do...
That being said, I'd like to do somewhere between 1-2 hours a session once/twice a week (would prefer twice a week, but I'm really flexible right now) to start. I have tried doing online, but it doesn't really work for me because of the tones.
I really want to focus on being able to read and understand it. I would like to be able to speak it, but that's not as big of a priority for me right now. I'd prefer someone who has teaching experience and a structured schedule so I have deadlines and goals to get towards.
Since I have a one-year old, I would need someone to be able to come to my house (I live above a really good dumpling shop and will happily buy dinner!). Also, I have a cat - in case allergies are a problem. If you don't like cats though, I can lock her up in the room without any problem. I don't really have time on the weekends, so I would need classes to be after I get off work (usually after 17:30). I live in Linkou, near Old Linkou Street.

I have been living in Taiwan for over a decade and have picked up enough Chinese along the way to get by, but feel that it is about time to go about this in a more systematic fashion. Ideally, lessons would take place in my office (at Chung-Hsing University) once or twice a week for two hours.

I've been in Taiwan for seven years and up until recently had little reason to speak the language. I was married to a Taiwanese who spoke fluent English and did not get out of the house much. After my marriage, I had to learn as much as I could as it made getting around Taipei far simpler. Since then, I have learned some very basic phrases...but I need to extend my capabilities as quickly and as naturally as possible. I've started a business and it is absolutely imperative that I learn how to communicate with my customers. I am looking for someone who is experienced in teaching Chinese in Taichung, Taiwan.
I have 188 class contact hours from NSYSU and want to continue reading/listening/speaking Chinese, face-to- face on a one-to-one basis for six hours a week (e.g. two hours, three times a week) for a month, maybe more. I want a tutor who is qualified to teach Chinese and has teaching experience at an institution. I **think** I am at elementary level - somewhere between A2 and A3 - although I am happy to be corrected on this. I can provide my own textbook or the tutor can. I have not studied zhuyin but am open to it. Postal code is 804.
Looking for Mandarin tutoring once a week at least near Wenshan district preferably in the evenings and during the week. I have got the book already and have very basic knowledge of Mandarin, I still need to use English to understand instructions.
I am looking for a Mandarin tutor for myself. I Will likely take classes for a year but because of work travel need flexibility in scheduling classes. I would like to be able to speak fluent Mandarin.

Hi there teachers,
I'm a British man, teacher by trade - I really enjoy teaching and currently teach children English, History and Science. I've lived in Taiwan for 8 years in Tainan, Taitung, Kaohsiung, and Hualian. I just finished 10 months at the language center at Tzu Chi University in Hualian.
I've taken a new job in Tucheng (teaching) and luckily I also I have time to study. I was really hoping to improve on the hard work of the last year at Tzu Chi and keep developing my Chinese reading, writing, speaking and listening. I'm looking for a dedicated and professional teacher who will help me keep pushing and developing. I'm keen for extra homework, especially if you don't mind marking it. But also I want to be friends with the teacher and enjoy a chat :-) Once or twice a week probably, depending on our schedules.
I achieved TOEFL Level 3 in Reading and Listening. I'm hoping to do the TOEFL tests in Writing and Speaking (perhaps in November 2019 or March 2020), aiming for Level 3. I'd love keep studying and achieve level 4 in all tests in the future. One day I'd love to use Chinese for postgraduate study or work - one dream is to be a Chinese teacher, just like you :-)
Hey,
My name is Sean. I'm originally from Ireland but I have been living in Taiwan for about two years.
I'm looking for a Chinese tutor who is available either Wednesday or Friday afternoons. I've been taking evening classes for a while and I'd describe myself as a lower intermediate student, but the language doesn't come easy to me so I'm hoping to find a tutor who can give me some additional help. I particularly struggle when it comes to listening. I work in Dingxi and live near Guting but any location around Taipei City or Yonghe and Zhonghe in New Taipei is okay too!
I'm currently studying the beginning of ShiDa's "A Course in Contemporary Chinese" Book 3. So it would be great if I could find a teacher who is familiar with ShiDa's material.
Please let me know if you might be available by emailing me :)
Thank you!
Sean
Hello there,
I have been learning Chinese on and off for about 4 years now. I have gaps in my Chinese ability for simple things. Chinese teachers in the past have tried to explain it to me, but I'm at a point where I require someone proficient in English to tell me how to use it. I also require my tutor to be able to help me study and prepare for taking TOCFL tests. If you think you would be a good fit for me, please let me know. Thank you.

We are looking for a Chinese tutor who can come to the area around Xihu MRT station in Neihu three afternoons a week to tutor a 6th grade American native English speaker who is attending a local Taiwanese school for part of the day. We would need you to come Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday sometime between noon and 4pm. This would be at least 1 hour each of those days, potentially more based on our discussion of what she needs. We would prefer tutors who have experience making learning fun with kids, but who can also be firmly in charge of lessons. We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible. Based on how things go there is also the potential for additional hours for tutoring of our younger children. Thanks!
Please read in full before responding! :)
Looking for a Chinese tutor/teacher who can travel to:
SHULIN, NTC
2-3x a week
AFTER 5:30 pm DURING WEEKDAYS (M-F). Yes, Shulin is outside of MRT range.
I would really like to stay in Taiwan long-term but realized it won't be possible without some basic language ability. I would like to learn useful things, like reading menus and street signs, being able to call and schedule appointments, basic everyday conversation, and some basic classroom vocabulary so I can communicate better with students. I don't need to be fully conversational or read newspapers, etc, but just enough to live comfortably here and not always be confused :)
If we could go out and USE what you teach me, even better. Ie- forcing me to order at a restaurant in Chinese, that kind of thing
*combination in-person/online is ok*
Again:
commute to ShuLin, New Taipei City
M-F after 5:30 pm (2-3x a week, days flexible for 1-1.5 hours a time)
Please email me with which days and times you are available and what your $ rate is! Thanks!
*I speak English, Spanish and German, if that helps any*
