      Are you looking for a good Chinese teacher? I'm here! Besides learning Chinese, I think it's important to understand the relevant cultural background as well. So, it would be fun to talk about our cultural differences through lessons.

      I had experience helping a foreign friend learn Chinese. When he had questions about learning Chinese, he asked me and I helped him understand.

      Why choose Yunchen L.
      "She's really patient about your needs and how you learn. I'm satisfied with homework and appreciate the way she encourages me to learn."

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Chinese in Long Island City, NY and what are the possibilities in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have several key opportunities for learning Chinese interactively in Long Island City, NY. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, research centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are less pricey.) Your 2nd spource can be local for-profit language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can find a private Chinese tutor in Long Island City, NY. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Long Island City, NY and online Chinese tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive 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 by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 45-48 lesson hours each semester. Language centers and private Chinese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the most budget-friendly Chinese tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor hometown, availability and specialization. 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 tests, so research the details 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 teaching children or teens, etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Chinese so challenging and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Chinese. According to experts, 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 everyday expressions, be understood when you talk, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Chinese. After attaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Chinese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking Chinese?

    Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Chinese will take at least 600 hours of practice. The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your current 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 television, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try as many as possible 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.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Chinese teacher?

    In language learning academies, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of tested Chinese tutors with full profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges usually schedule classes two times weekly over a semester (75-day period). Language schools as a rule give 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.
