About Chris
Hello, I’m Chris, a native Mandarin tutor with professional English. I help people speak Chinese with more confidence—clear pronunciation, natural phrases, and language that works in daily life and at work.
I hold a Master’s degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering and am comfortable in international, technical environments. Alongside my engineering background, I enjoy hands-on maker projects, which shapes how I teach: logical steps, concrete examples, and no unnecessary jargon.
Students often choose me because I combine patience with structure. You will always know what each lesson is for; I explain difficult points in English when helpful, then guide you to use more Chinese in real conversation. I focus on corrections that improve understanding—not interrupting every sentence.
I am reliable and professional: I prepare materials, start on time, and respond to messages promptly. Whether you are preparing for travel, HSK, or communication with colleagues in China, I will adapt the plan to your level and goal.
Message me with your current level and what you want to achieve—I look forward to meeting you in a trial lesson.

Method
Goal-first lessons: you speak a lot, I fix what blocks understanding (tones, patterns, work phrases). English explanations when needed; more Chinese as you improve.
Typical 60-minute lesson
Review (5 min) — Quick recap of last time’s key phrases.
New topic (20 min) — A small set of useful sentences; you repeat and use them in short drills.
Role-play (25 min) — Real situations (work, travel, or your topic); you speak most of the time.
Summary (10 min) — Main corrections and 3 phrases to practice before the next lesson.
What sets me apart
Native Mandarin · fluent English · engineering + maker background → clear, logical teaching; good for tech / China work and adults who want practical Chinese.
For whom
Beginner to intermediate; workplace Chinese, speaking, pronunciation; HSK 1–4 on request.
