      new Chinese tutor with TESOL background At the same time, I would use Desuggestopedia methodology which aims at tackling my students' mental barrier like lack of confidence in language learning. I have participated lots of singing competitions since I was in primary school only because I have huge passion in music and singing.

      Why choose Yingying Z.
      "Wonderful teacher who paid attention to my needs. I have some experience with Preply tutors and I can say that Yingying is the first one who thinks "outside of the box" (believe me, it's precious), who is eager to check the book I study from and adjust our class to it and who speaks absolutely fluent English - at my Chinese level it helps a lot. I set off on a journey with her and I recommend her to you all!"

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my Chinese in Rapid City, SD and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have four key possibilities for learning Chinese interactively in Rapid City, SD. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are cheaper.) Your second possibility can be local private language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, not-for-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can find a private Chinese tutor in Rapid City, SD. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Rapid City, SD and online Chinese tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive 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 1/10th of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of fifty or so class hours each semester. Language centers and private Chinese tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the better priced Chinese tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor hometown, experience and languages the tutor can teach in. Average reviews for Chinese lessons on Preply is 4.95 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What are the requirements for Chinese language skill level 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. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework level and exams, so research the details in advance. With personal Chinese tutors you can find out in advance for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

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

    Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Chinese. Realistically, you can gain basic Chinese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand many words, have simple conversations, socialize in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and fun 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 students.

    🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Chinese?

    Some people seem to have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Chinese will necessitate at least 600 hours of study. The required duration of time can differ a lot depending on your current level of Chinese or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is advised to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, try typing using your new language skills, try to communicate with 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 tutor?

    In language centers, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of verified Chinese tutors with full profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges as a rule schedule classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools make available shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can choose your own lesson frequency and time, on weekdays and/or weekends.
