Jie Z. - Tutor in Mobile, AL (36608)

I'm currently a student at University of South Alabama. I'm majoring in Mechanical Engineering. Right now, I'm taking calculus II and I consistently score at the top of my class. Math is my passion and I would love to help anyone gain a better understanding of this subject.

I'd like to help anybody who would like to learn Chinese or English as a second language. As a Chinese, I've known this language over 24 years and I lived in China for more than 23 years. If anyone has any questions or problems with Chinese grammar, listening, speaking, understanding, I'd like to help. Also, if anyone wants to practice his/her Chinese, this is no problem. I got an A for my Spoken Mandarin Certification. When I was in China, I was majoring in English at Northwest Normal University and I got my Bachelor's degree with excellent scores. I passed all the National English exams for English Majors and won one of the top places at National Oral English Competition.
For my internship, I worked at one of the local middle schools in China.
I try to make my teaching more creative and active since learning language is pretty difficult and sometimes even boring.

Chinese

I was born in China and have been living in China over 23 years. As a Chinese, I have learned Chinese grammars, culture and history in schools. I graduated in Northwest Normal University as an English major. A "normal university" in China is actually a university which cultivate teachers, so everybody need take spoken Mandarin test to make sure a teacher-to-be doesn't have an accent. I passed the test with score A. At the same time, as an English major, I have no problem to communicate with English native speakers. I'd like to help any levels with learning Chinese.
