      TESOL&TCSOL Double Certified/Environmental Engineer/Based in Beijing I love helping people reach their goals!
      I have been in engineering specialty training for over 5 years, either formally or informally, tutoring one on one, teaching in front of a class, or having classes online. I also have 15 years of experience in the environmental protection industry as a senior engineer.

      Why choose Hongrong Z.
      "I highly recommend Hongrong! I work with climate change, and for my job I need to have sharp, specific language about engineering topics related to the green transition. I already spoke conversational Chinese before starting lessons with Hongrong, but I’m very excited to have found a teacher who could help me improve my vocabulary in the technical and business topics I need. Hongrong is also very pleasant to take classes with, always in a good mood and with little anecdotes to make the experience enjoyable. She is patient, funny, creative, and always curious about my needs. If there’s a technical topic she doesn’t know about, she looks into it and can then tell me all about it in the next lesson. Your Chinese is in very good hands with Hongrong!"

      "Yin is a wonderful tutor. The first thing that strikes me is that she is a very experienced teacher and knows what she is doing. She is currently helping me with HSK 4 and she has a lot of resources and uses a wide variety of teaching methods. She switches up the skills we are working on, such as reading, speaking, and listening. As well, she gives useful homework, which helps me practice my writing, and the feedback she gives is always helpful. She is very friendly and provides a relaxed classroom environment. That helps me to stay focused and not feel intimidated, when trying new words and vocabulary."

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How to learn Chinese in Invercargill and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with recorded courses, you have 4 main options for learning Chinese interactively in Invercargill. 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 cheaper.) Your other possibility can be local specialized language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, international learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can opt for a private Chinese tutor in Invercargill. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Invercargill and online Chinese tutors.

    🎟 How expensive is it to learn Chinese and what does a lesson with a tutor of Chinese cost?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Chinese course cost as 1/10th of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the overall charge for fifty or so class hours each semester. Language schools and individual Chinese tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Chinese tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, experience and student demand. Customer review average for Chinese lessons on Preply is 4.95 out of 5 stars.

    📚 How much Chinese do I need to know to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. All classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and graded tasks, so research those in advance. With personal Chinese tutors you can read reviews and get a good idea for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like teaching children or teens, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Chinese not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Formal 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 expressions, have simple conversations, shop and place orders in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Chinese. After mastering 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 get better at speaking 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 current level of Chinese or proficiency in other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, write by hand and online using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Chinese out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Chinese classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Chinese coach?

    In language centers, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, of course! The largest selection of tested Chinese tutors with full profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges structure classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools as a rule have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
