🌟 Hi there! I’m Dennis, a passionate and certified professional Chinese teacher with over 5 years of experience teaching students from 7 years old to adults across the globe! I love sharing the beauty of the Chinese language while exploring creative, interactive ways to make learning fun. 🎓 Credentials: Certified by CTCSOL (Certificate for Teachers of Chinese to Speakers of Other languages ), which validates my professional competence in teaching Chinese, and Mandarin grade A certificate (Putonghua/mandarin proficiency test), which proves my standard pronunciation. ❤️ Why I Teach: I believe language learning should be joyful and meaningful! Whether you’re a curious student, a busy professional, or a culture enthusiast, I’m here to help you unlock the beauty of Chinese through creativity and real-life connections. 🌸 Beyond Teaching: Outside of teaching, I enjoy discovering new cultural experiences, reading about modern education trends, and engaging in activities that enrich my understanding of diverse perspectives. ✅ Expertise Across Ages & Levels: • Taught 100+ students from the U.S., Germany, the U.K., Spain, France, and more on platforms and in organizations. • Kids (7-15 yrs): At an European International School, I'm responsible for teaching middle school students HSK standard courses. • Teens & Adults: Currently, I'm an Online Mandarin Instructor at an online American language school, where I teach U.S. teenagers and high school students Mandarin. And on Preply, I've been teaching Chinese to adults and children with different ages and levels from various countries. 🔥 Methodology: • Communicative & Student-Centered: My classes use a blend of communicative, project-based, scene and task-based approaches, and Total Physical Response (TPR) techniques. This dynamic mix ensures that every lesson is engaging, interactive, and tailored to your learning style. I incorporate the communicative approach and project-based learning to align with ACTFL standards, ensuring that students can use Chinese in real-life situations. When teaching HSK courses, I focus on building a solid foundation in vocabulary, grammar, and test-taking skills. The comprehensive courses I teach are designed to comprehensively enhance students' listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.
