    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Chinese in Tuscaloosa, AL and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using apps, you have a few key choices for learning Chinese interactively in Tuscaloosa, AL. 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 less pricey.) Your second spource can be local specialized language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, not-for-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can opt for a private Chinese tutor in Tuscaloosa, AL. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Tuscaloosa, AL 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 overall charge for about 50 course hours each semester. Language academies and independent Chinese tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Chinese tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, positive reviews and student demand. Real student rating average 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 pass a few pre-requisites. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and exams, so research the details in advance. With personal Chinese tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other add-ons they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

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

    One-size-fits-all 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 five hours a week you will be able to understand many words, express yourself, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready and easy 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 students.

    🤷 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 require at least 600 hours of study. The actual range of time can differ significantly depending on your available level of Chinese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is a good idea 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 you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational Chinese classes online.

    🤳 How many possibilities do I choose among when I select the right Chinese instructor?

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

    🗓 What time of day and on which days are classes available?

    Colleges typically offer classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools offer 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.
