Hello there! My name is Mick. Thank you for checking out my profile. If you're considering learning or already learning Mandarin Chinese, and you want to find a native speaker to help you learn and brush up, then I may be the person you're looking for. I majored in English in university, and I've been using English for jobs ever since, so I can speak English fluently. I am a learner of languages myself so I know learning a language is a process, and I'd be glad to help you along the way.
Me as a Teacher
I'm easy-going, detail-oriented and patient. I'm experienced as a Mandarin Chinese tutor as I started tutoring on italki back in 2011, and I know what aspects of Mandarin Chinese learners may struggle. I have the experience of tutoring HSK tests, and teaching standard Mandarin Chinese textbooks.
My lessons & teaching style
• Mandarin Speech Sounds and Tones class is mainly for Mandarin Chinese beginners. Mandarin Chinese is a tonal language, so the class is all about Mandarin Chinese tones practice and correction.
• We can do role-playing and topic talk in Spoken Chinese session to practice your conversational skills. Talk about whatever that interests you in Chinese, Chinese culture, history, etc.
• Chinese Reading and Writing is for upper intermediate to advanced level learners. We can focus on vocabulary learning and sentence structure in reading and writing session.
• Or I can simply customize the lesson whatever suits your way of learning the best.
Mick is an exceptional Mandarin Chinese teacher! He has a unique ability to make the language come alive and make the lessons both fun and informative. His passion for the language and culture shines through in every class and his wealth of knowledge is truly remarkable. He is patient, understanding and always goes the extra mile to ensure that his students are fully comprehending the material. I have seen significant progress in my Mandarin skills since studying with Mick. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn Mandarin Chinese.
非常感谢你!

Great lessons, and ability to guide a conversation. Balancing listening with moving the lesson forward isn't easy and Micky does it expertly.
