I was born in Hong Kong, and have lived in Canada for most of my adult life. I recently finished a long successful career, and would like to do something that I'm passionate about. Language learning and teaching is something that I can never get tired of.
English is probably my strongest language in terms of writing, reading and speaking. However, I can also converse confidently in Mandarin with little to no accent as evident in my video. Cantonese is my native tongue; although I don't use it nearly as often as my English, I have no problem switching back and forth between the two languages when I need to.
Che tipo di insegnante sono
I am experienced in formal (classroom) teaching of the English language to Chinese students preparing for their university entrance exams, as well as one-on-one tutoring of Cantonese to students from the foreign business community in Hong Kong. In addition, I have a certificate from the Hong Kong Chinese University for a course on the teaching of Putonghua (Chinese Mandarin), which I successfully completed in the top fifth percentile of the class.
Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
I recognize that everyone learns differently, and I vary my approach accordingly. My general method is to follow a semi-structured approach. In other words, I will create a plan for each lesson with learning objectives, but will also make sure there’s room for any questions from the student.
For each student, I will discover what their objectives are during the first lesson, and customize future lessons to suit their individual needs. For beginners that are more analytical, I can start with the building blocks of the language, such as the pronunciation rules, parts of speech and basic vocabulary. For an advanced learner, I would recommend a more conversation-based approach.

La scelta dell'insegnante
Today we learned terms related to health. Additionally, we learned Cantonese adjectives that are common in the spoken language. Zack is always very helpful and patient.

Very helpful first lesson! Zack has materials for teaching Cantonese grammar and vocabulary at different levels, so we started by talking a bit about what I want to learn, and then he helped me practice making sentences. I'm looking forward to further lessons!
