Hi! I'm Jialing, a native Mandarin speaker from Shanghai, now based in the UK. I offer friendly, well-structured online Chinese lessons for English-speaking learners of all levels — whether you're starting completely from scratch, preparing for HSK, or brushing up before travel or work in China.
Having adapted to life and study in another language myself, I understand first-hand where learners get stuck and how to make an unfamiliar language feel approachable. I've also previously tutored a student through their entrance exams, so I'm used to breaking difficult material into clear, manageable steps.
Here's how my lessons work: I start by understanding your goals and current level, then build a plan around them — pronunciation and tones, everyday conversation, character reading and writing, or HSK preparation. Lessons are interactive, so you'll speak from the very first session, with plenty of gentle correction and encouragement rather than pressure. I'll share real cultural context too, so the language feels natural rather than just memorised.
Between sessions I can set light, practical tasks so your progress carries over. Above all, I keep things patient, friendly, and paced to suit you. Feel free to get in touch — I'd be happy to arrange a short first chat to see if we're a good fit.
