« Perfect! Whether you're preparing for the HSK or learning for your next trip to Asia, Simorio has you covered! She is amazing at adapting to my needs and always makes sure to provide me ample study materials(HSK practice test corrections, vocab lists, spreadsheets, sentence practice, etc.) I am able to review the documents she has provided me in preparation for our next lessons! She understands the approaches that are most effective for learning Mandarin and can even helps me learn both simplified and traditional writing systems! Her knowledge in different Chinese accents helps me become a better speaker and understand people even if their speaking differs from mine. I am currently preparing for the HSK and Simorio helps me reinforce and the concepts I have learnt and apply them to different situations in characters, pinyin, translations, speaking, and aurally. She makes sure to teach me things that are relevant to everyday life that I can use immediately even if they don't directly relate to my HSK preparation! Her attention to my needs makes me more motivated to continue my journey with Mandarin. I am extremely happy to have her as my teacher and I believe that I would not have progressed as far as I have without her :) »

Native girl teach Chinese in a no book, lively and logical way

Methodology

My lessons are mainly with games and communications.
The games are used for words remembering. Games help us to categories the certain words suitable for different situation in everyday lives, and each picture will be used to explain these words in detail.
Communication helps students to make the words they remember become the words that can be used in real life. Besides communication practicing, in this process we will emphasise more on explaining how the Chinese words combine to those phrases and use deductive logic to guess the meaning of slams and idioms.

Background

I am a student from Top University in Taiwan. I made lots of friends from western countries and most of them came to my school to study Chinese/Mandarin. We did lots of Language exchanges and after that I found myself talented in teaching and explaining. Different from normal tutors, my teaching style focus more on practical using and is able to adjust to the need of each students to suit their goal of learning Chinese/Mandarin.
I believe learning a different language helps people to appreciate the world more, and enrich their lives more. If you want a useful and amazing learning experience, it will be my pleasure to share it with you.

I feel lots of progress after few weeks.Thanks simi!!

Wang's response

Great! Cute!

Simi

Perfect! The way Simorio teach makes learning full of surprise and helpful.
She pointed out my weakest part, which is my tone and accent, at the first time. Not until then do I understand that this is the main reason that limits me from communicating with native speakers.
She is also amazing in vocabs remembering!!! Highly recommended.

Wang is nice and sociable, she use logical way to help students remembering the vocabs in short time.
Talk to her is a good way to learn how beautiful Mandarin is.

Simi

Simorio is a really professional tutor.
She shared lots of Chinese philosophy with me and helped me to reduce my Mandarin accent a lot.
The way she trained my tone is vivid and easy to understand.
She compare the tone in Mandarin as singing a song( and it actually origin from that!!)
My Chinese/Mandarin speaking skill is able to communicate with locals after coming to Asia, having Simorio as my tutor is definitely the main factor!!

Interview with Wang

QUESTION 01 | 03

When did your passion for teaching Mandarin begin?

Wang — My passions for teaching began with my learning. I met a talented English teacher in my high school.
His ways of teaching vocals are logical and interesting, which offer a way that helps me remember one hundred words in a 2hr class.
I was inspired then and thinking about putting these methods in learning/teaching every language.

QUESTION 02 | 03

In your opinion, what does it take to be a successful Mandarin speaker?

Wang — Tone. Lots of my students they remember lots of vocals and can even make a complete sentence. However, they complained that they always failed to communicate with locals when they were in Asia. Many of English speaker use English tone to speak Chinese. The point is, Mandarin has four distinctive tones that help the native speaker to understand the meaning of the words. The words can have the same pronunciation but have totally different meaning because they have a different tone.

QUESTION 03 | 03

What would you say to a student who says learning another language is useless or boring?

Wang — I am the with this idea. Maybe in the future we can have has full interpretation system that helps to translate during a conversation.
Leaning language is a choice or passion. If someone doesn't have that, there's no point to force them to learn.
