    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Chinese in Christchurch and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with apps, you have several main opportunities for learning Chinese interactively in Christchurch. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, ask about the centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your second spource can be local for-profit language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can look for a private Chinese tutor in Christchurch. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Christchurch and online Chinese tutors.

    🎟 Is it affordable to learn Chinese and what are the ballpark lesson costs for Chinese tutors?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Chinese course cost as one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of about 50 course hours each semester. Language centers and private Chinese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with private classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the less pricey Chinese tutors can be found online, with prices on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, positive reviews and languages the tutor can teach in. Average reviews for Chinese lessons on Preply is 4.95 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What level of Chinese do I need to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared demonstrate proof of your current level. All classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and tests, so research all such requirements in advance. With personal Chinese tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Chinese so difficult and are there ways to learn it the easy way?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Chinese. In reality, you can gain basic Chinese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback 5 hours a week you will be able to understand many phrases, express yourself, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Chinese. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Chinese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.

    🤷 How long does it take to master Chinese?

    Some people have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Chinese will demand at least 600 hours of practice. The amount of time can differ by a lot depending on your already acquired level of Chinese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write by hand and online using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Chinese out loud. If you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational Chinese classes online.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the Chinese teacher?

    In language centers, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, always! The largest selection of verified Chinese tutors with extensive profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges usually offer classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools typically have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
