Liting was so helpful and corrected all my pronunciation! I was a beginner in Chinese and Liting first helped me learn pinyin and then the tones associated with each syllable. She was so kind and helped me figure out the best path based on my language goals. Go check her out!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

Besides self-study with special programs, you have several primary possibilities for learning Chinese interactively in Istanbul. 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 second possibility can be local specialized language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can opt for a private Chinese tutor in Istanbul. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Istanbul and online Chinese tutors.

🎟 Is it cheap 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 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 1/2 of a hundred lesson hours each semester. Language schools and private Chinese tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the better priced Chinese tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, experience and languages the tutor can teach in. Average reviews 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. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and graded tasks, so research each program in advance. With personal Chinese tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are 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. 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 everyday expressions, express yourself, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Relocating 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 students.

🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking 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 practice. The actual range of time can differ significantly depending on your existing level of Chinese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is advised to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, write using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try as many as possible 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 teacher?

In language learning academies, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, always! The largest selection of tested Chinese tutors with video profiles and true reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.

🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

Colleges as a rule structure classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools usually 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.
