Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile! ⚠️If you cannot find a suitable lesson time, please contact me⚠️ My name is Hotaru🍀 I was born and raised in Hong Kong. Having two years of experience living in Taiwan, I also speak a good level of Mandarin. (I teach Cantonese only.)

Language is my biggest passion!💓 I enjoy learning about different cultures/ways of life and have always been interested in learning more about languages from various regions of the globe. I have learned many languages myself, and that made me fully understand how difficult it can be to learn a second/third language. Apart from language learning, I also enjoy watching football matches, listening to French music (I love French rap and slam!) and being outdoors to explore new places.

Lesson Flow

Step 1:

We start by conversing like friends, asking plenty of questions! 😊

Step 2:

During the conversation, we use slides to point out more natural usage of language and pronunciation. We'll write down and explain any unclear grammar or phrases and challenging expressions on the spot to learn together!

Step 3:

After the lesson, I’ll send you the lesson's slides for review. (All pronunciations of the words and example sentences will be recorded by me and included in the slides!)

Step 4:

In the next class, we'll spend about 20-30 minutes revising sentences and questions incorporating the words and grammar mistakes from the previous lesson, reviewing them together through conversation.

Step 5:

For the remaining 30 minutes, we'll enjoy more engaging conversations, sharing and learning new mistakes in words or grammar, to be reviewed in the following class.

As you may know that Cantonese is a language full of colloquial slangs. It is best to learn with a a young tutor who always keeps up with the change in the language and provides you the up-to-date information regarding the usage and nuances. Practice is the key to fluency! Rest assured, I'm excited and willing to help you! Book a trial lesson with me and let's get learning.
