"Diane T. Review: 5 Star"
- Ryan, Auburn Hills, MI on 10/7/16Diane T. is a sensational tutor for several reasons. As a new student learning the Mandarin language, Diane was very thoughtful and meticulous in her lesson planning, teaching structure, and review. Diane was always well prepared with lesson plans that set a solid foundation for the future. She was also very flexible in her meeting times, understanding when conflicts occurred, and as professional as you’ll find. Polite and respectful are two of the words that come to mind immediately when describing Diane’s character.
One of my favorite parts about Diane’s lessons were her teachings around the Chinese culture. She always found a way to tie our current topics to the real world which served me well as I was always curious as to how our lesson linked to the “Big Picture.” Above all, Diane’s greatest traits are her understanding and ability to keep patience with her student(s). While frequently my pronunciation was unclear and incorrect, or my ability to remember vocabulary words was deficient, Diane ALWAYS remained positive and enthusiastic. I highly recommend any students, young or old, to work with Diane as I hope to sometime again in the future.
Approved subjects are in bold.
Approved subjects
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Chinese
I’m a native born Chinese and have resided in the U.S. for more than 20 years. I am an enthusiastic teacher who has been teaching Mandarin to English speakers for various years now. With corporate client experience, I am currently working as a Mandarin tutor for a large language company in the USA. I have also been teaching Mandarin from Kindergarten to 5th grade in a Detroit school. My class is lively and fun. Materials are designed according to the students’ background and needs. I always make Chinese easy to learn. If you take lessons from me, you will not only learn the language, but also the culture of China.
