Series Details

About

In this series, we'll cover Mandarin vocabulary and grammar. You'll learn how to speak and understand basic Mandarin. We'll also cover basic reading and writing in Simplified Chinese. Finally, throughout the course, we'll learn about Chinese culture, from food, to holidays, to even more! No prior knowledge of the language is necessary!

Tutor Qualifications

I speak mostly Mandarin at home and have been taking lessons for around ten years.

About the Tutor

Hi everyone! I'm Sarina, and I'm a college student who's been a tutor since 2022. Currently, I'm pretty busy, so I'm taking a bit of a break from tutoring, but I hope to come back soon! Some of my hobbies are reading, art, and playing the double bass. Nice to meet you!
