Jing Chen

Hello! I am a native Mandarin speaker and a PhD student in Art History at the University of London. Before beginning my doctoral studies, I spent ten years working as an editor at a Chinese national media organisation.

My professional background has given me extensive experience in Chinese writing, communication, and cultural interpretation. I am passionate about language, literature, art, and Chinese culture, and I enjoy helping people discover the richness and nuances of the Chinese language.

My Lessons
I offer personalised Mandarin lessons tailored to your interests, proficiency level, and learning goals. I especially enjoy working with adult learners, whether you are starting from scratch or looking to build confidence and fluency.

Our lessons can focus on:
Everyday Mandarin: Develop practical speaking and listening skills for daily life and travel.
Chinese Reading and Writing: Improve your vocabulary, grammar, reading comprehension, and written expression.
Chinese Culture and Society: Explore contemporary China, its media, cultural traditions, and social context through language learning.
Personalised Learning: Build a learning plan around your professional needs, personal interests, or specific goals.

Whether you are learning Mandarin for work, travel, personal interest, or a deeper engagement with Chinese culture, I would be delighted to help you on your learning journey.

I look forward to meeting you!
