Hi, I'm Jenny and I've been teaching my native Mandarin for 15 years. I have taught in multiple schools with children of all ages and adults too, at all skill levels. I like to use lots of different methods to discover how each student learns best, whether it's as simple as flashcards or encouraging research into Chinese culture to better understand the fundamentals. There are a number of different festivals in China and each represents something different and is celebrated differently depending on where in China you are. The biggest festival in China is the Spring Festival, otherwise known as Chinese New Year, and is usually a seven-day holiday. In South China, it's common to go to the flower market to buy peach blossoms to bring good luck for the next year. There will also be red envelopes hanging on top, again for good luck, and they will eat sticky rice (niangao). In North China, they celebrate by hanging calligraphy on red paper for good luck and setting off fireworks, and relatives will come together over dumplings before the New Year. China covers a lot of area and there are 56 ethnic groups living there, each speaking their own dialect. As a native Mandarin speaker, I can teach not only how to read and write but also how to listen and speak with correct pronunciation in a standard accent.
