Private Mandarin Tuition in Southampton

Hi, I’m Yanjie — a native Mandarin speaker with 2 years of teaching experience in both in-person settings and on Removed. I specialize in helping students with HSK preparation, children’s Mandarin, and adult conversational Chinese.
My lessons are patient, fun, and highly efficient. I focus on pronunciation, practical language use, and cultural understanding to help students learn not just the language, but the world behind it.
Whether you're learning for school, work, or personal interest, I’ll create a tailored plan to help you reach your goals with confidence.

Tutoring Experience

2 years of experience teaching Mandarin Chinese to students of different age groups and backgrounds.
worked both in-person and through online platforms like Removed delivering personalised one-to-one lessons tailored to each student’s goals and proficiency level.

My students include young children learning basic vocabulary and pronunciation, adults focusing on daily conversation and business Mandarin, as well as learners preparing for HSK exams (levels 1–4). I provide structured lesson plans, interactive activities, and cultural insights to make learning engaging and efficient.

My teaching approach is patient and practical, with a strong emphasis on pronunciation accuracy, communication skills, and real-life application.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching approach is patient, engaging, and results-oriented. I believe that language learning should be enjoyable and practical, so I design lessons that are interactive and tailored to each student’s needs and goals.

For beginners, I focus on pronunciation (pinyin), basic vocabulary, and sentence structure using visual aids, games, and real-life examples. For more advanced learners, I emphasise conversation practice, grammar refinement, and cultural topics to improve fluency and confidence.

I also integrate Chinese culture into my lessons — including festivals, traditions, and daily life — to help students truly connect with the language beyond textbooks. Whether you're learning Mandarin for school, travel, work, or personal growth, I aim to make your learning journey fun, clear, and efficient.
