Hello everybody, my name is Zina. My students from many different countries, they all have a great enthusiasm for Chinese language and culture. I receive many good reviews from my students and am happy to say that many of them are now my friends. I believe that your experience learning Chinese should be enjoyable as well as productive, and I will always do my best when working with you. I am a all-time teacher on italki, meaning that my schedule is open throughout the day and students can choose the class times that best suit them. I put all of my energy and enthusiasm into teaching my students, learning their needs and providing high quality teaching. If you want to learn written Chinese, I can teach you the Chinese characters. If you want to learn oral Chinese, then I will help you choose interesting and useful conversational topics. I will listen carefully so I understand your learning objectives. Usually, it's best if our work together complements some other modes of learning. So if you are studying elsewhere, or using particular texts, please let me know, so I can build it into my teaching. Based on your needs and desires, I can prepare different material, whether it's formal course material or more casual conversation. I'm happy to prepare material on any subject as long as you let me know ahead of time. If you are a Chinese language enthusiast, please do not hesitate to talk with me so we can learn more Chinese together.
