Hi, my name is Yujia Gu. You can call me Catherine or Catalina. I am a native Chinese speaker. I have been in the UK for nearly three years, so I can speak English fluently. I am a responsible, nice and patient teacher. I use well-designed PowerPoint slides to deliver my lessons. The lessons contain Pinyin (Chinese pronunciation system), vocabulary, daily expressions, writing and Chinese culture. Of course, I can customise the lessons based on your interest and preference. The style of my lesson is informative, fun and rewarding. I also prepare audio for each lesson that can help you practice pronouncing Chinese characters after class, so you can revise them easily without any stress. During the lessons, I love to interact with you and listen to your thoughts and ideas. I am very passionate about teaching and I have some online teaching experience. I am currently teaching transferable skills to the most disadvantaged and remotely located students in Asia as a volunteer to help them gain professional development. Also, I used to work in a nursery in Cambridge and this experience helped me learn how to interact with children and support their language development in their early years. As I am currently learning Spanish, I am fully aware of the difficulties of learning a new language and I will help you throughout this process. If you are an English speaker and interested in learning Chinese, I would be a good choice for you. Best regards, Yujia
