Detroit Mandarin Chinese Tutoring FAQ

大象传媒 can help if you have been searching for quality Detroit Chinese tutors. Whether your student wants to supplement the Chinese classes they are taking in school or you are an adult learner who wants to improve your Chinese, we can help. Private mentoring can give you an opportunity to improve your Chinese proficiency in a comfortable environment.

How can studying with a Detroit Chinese tutor near me help me or my student?

Chinese is the most commonly spoken language in the world. It is an important language to know, especially if you go to China for business reasons or trade with people from China. If you plan on traveling to China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, or Singapore, understanding Chinese can give you an advantage. Being able to speak Chinese can also help you converse with travelers and native Chinese speakers in your area.

Chinese is commonly considered a difficult language to learn. It has very little in common with English. Many students struggle to pronounce Chinese words correctly. Private Detroit Chinese tutors can help you improve your pronunciation. They can go over words and sounds many times until you get better at them.

One of the benefits of Detroit Chinese tutoring is that you can study at your own pace. You won't have to rush to cover a set curriculum. Instead, you can focus on the issues you are having trouble with the most while skipping topics you already understand. If you don't know what your weak points are, your private mentor can assess your knowledge and devise a study curriculum that is catered to your needs. They can also try out different teaching techniques until they find the ones that work best for you. For example, if you are a visual learner, your mentor can use flashcards to help you learn new Chinese words. You can ask your mentor questions. You can always schedule more mentoring sessions if needed, so you won't have to worry about running out of time.

Detroit Chinese tutoring can allow you to practice your Chinese regularly. This can help you improve your fluency and reduce your hesitation when speaking Chinese. Your mentor can conduct conversations entirely in Chinese, depending on your level of proficiency. They can also introduce audio recordings to help you improve your understanding of spoken Chinese. A private mentor can gradually introduce new words when they speak with you to help you expand your vocabulary. Another way they can help you expand your vocabulary is by introducing reading materials that get progressively harder. They can even recommend books to read during your free time to help you keep your skills sharp. They can use reading materials about topics you are interested in to make the sessions more exciting. You can also develop a rapport with your mentor, which can cause you to look forward to each session.

Detroit Chinese tutors can also help you understand the Chinese script. Chinese does not have an alphabet. Instead, written Chinese includes over 50,000 characters, with each character representing a different syllable. This can be overwhelming to new students, especially native English speakers who are used to the Roman alphabet. It is important to note, however, that only 2,500 characters make up the majority of written Chinese, and only 20,000 characters are used regularly. Your mentor can focus on the important symbols first to help you make more efficient progress towards your goals.

Your Detroit Chinese tutor can also help you with Chinese tones. Mandarin Chinese has four tones. However, other dialects can have up to nine tones. In tonal languages such as Chinese, the same word can have different meanings based on the tone used. It is important to be able to properly use tones and identify which tones are being used by a speaker.

Recent Detroit Mandarin Chinese Tutoring Session Notes

Mandarin Chinese Tutoring review by Emily in Detroit, MI
Throughout the week, the student had recorded a Chinese program which we used in today's session. He did a first pass to see how much he understood, then we dissected the dialogue during the session. It seemed to benefit him in terms of refreshing his memory and speaking. We are still in the process of finding the teaching style that will benefit him most, but this helped more than what we did the last session, so we are on the right track.

Mandarin Chinese Tutoring review by Kathleen in Detroit, MI
The student practiced reading his assignments out loud and using his new vocabulary words. We focused on the "x" and "sh" sounds, especially in the words "xiao" and "shao". The student did a great job staying on task and his reading has improved greatly.

Mandarin Chinese Tutoring review by Ginger in Detroit, MI
The first student and I went outside, where she drew pictures of bushes, trees, and flowers. I then went over pronunciation of each term with her and added verbs so she could make complete sentences. With the other two students, I took a walk around the yard with them and had them repeat terms associated with grass, stones, trees, and bushes.

Mandarin Chinese Tutoring review by Benjamin in Detroit, MI
We continued working on the review sheet for the student's make-up tests. Many of the words were unfamiliar to him, so he will need to work on his vocabulary. We have made about 25 new flashcards. In addition, we started on an exercise during which he is given scrambled sentences and needs to put the words into correct order. Because he needs to work on his grammar, this exercise was a challenge. He did well on the Pinyin and stroke order portions of the review sheet.

Mandarin Chinese Tutoring review by Scott in Detroit, MI
We began by introducing ourselves and I got a little background on why the students want to learn Chinese. After that I began with they basics of Chinese pronunciation (learning the Romanization system Pinyin) and had them practice that for homework.
