Pioneering & Unique Teaching Methodology Guaranteed to Support You to Master Chinese ASAP!

Ning has been, not only an absolutely extraordinary teacher, but an incredible mentor. To nurture an environment where one can practice Chinese in comfort and without feeling judged takes tremendous skill - and Ning achieves it with effortless ease. From the first lesson, her dedication and commitment were apparent. She creates a plethora of extra resources outside of lessons to aid the individual’s needs. The well of experience and knowledge she brings to the table are unmatched, and that coupled with her mastery of English has formed a very rich and diverse environment for learning. She is a true linguist and her passion for language-learning is infectious.

It is fair to say I arrived to her lessons not knowing an ounce of Chinese, not even that ‘nǐ hǎo’ meant ‘hello’. Ning somehow took that and fostered an environment for learning that resulted in my achieving a 100% in my first HSK examination. However, It is safe to say that Ning’s lessons go beyond HSK. She teaches you true Mandarin. Her in-depth explanation of grammar structures and idioms will provide you an understanding of Chinese so rich that confidence in speech will be the natural result. If it is real understanding and professional teaching you seek, then Ning is the absolute best choice of tutor. I could sing her praises until I am red in the face!!! I am very thankful for all that she has done to help me.

Ning is an expert Chinese teacher who is deeply passionate about both language teaching and her students. She’s committed to delivering high-quality, personalised lessons. Her patience, enthusiasm, and dedication are remarkable. I strongly recommend her.

If it wasn't for Ning and her constant support and patience, I would have probably given up on learning Chinese at university!

I have gone from not being able to string a Chinese sentence together to achieving a 2:1 on my final exam, all in the space of 6 months.

Ning goes above and beyond to ensure that learning material is tailored to individual needs of the student, ... Her supporting and encouraging nature makes learning much more enjoyable and I highly recommend her to anyone.

Ning rekindled my love of learning Chinese and she was friendly and really easy to chat to, and I really enjoyed my lessons with her.

She never made me feel stupid if I found something difficult...

She had loads of good ideas to help me learn. She worked really hard to help me do well.

I got an A in my GCSE Chinese after I'd been learning with Ning for only six months; a year later I got 266/300 in HSK3 and 77/100 in HSKK.

I got an A* on my reading and listening, an A on my writing and a B on my speaking. So overall, I got an A!!! Thank you so much for your time and patience, Ning. I'm over the moon with my results!

I have been studying mandarin with Ning for the past year. I am an advanced mandarin speaker having studied since 2007 - both in China and in the UK.

I rate Ning's teaching extremely highly and would be delighted to recommend her to other fellow students... I've had approximately 10 mandarin tutors since I started learning mandarin and I rank Ning as one of the very best. If you're looking to learn about the Chinese language and culture, then you couldn't go far wrong.

Holding the attention of my eight-year-old son for any length of time is a feat of Herculean proportion.

How Ning manages to keep him focused for an hour is astonishing and highlights her remarkable gift for teaching.

The lessons strike the perfect balance between being factual and fun, meaning my son happily sits down for his weekly session. I would highly recommend Ning.

Ning is an exceptional tutor, I have made more progress in a few months than I had in years before she took me under her tutorage.

She is methodical, yet flexible in her approach providing me with exactly what I need. There is always additional effort prior and after the lesson to produce specific materials and focus on areas of weakness which results in tangible, and speedy improvement which excels any expectations I had going in. ...I am finding my lessons an absolute delight!

From a parent's point of view, our son looks forward to his lessons with Ning and is totally engaged during them.

Ning has given him the confidence to communicate with Chinese speakers, when the opportunity arises.

We are so proud of him, due to the fact that in a short period of time, Joe has been able to hold brief conversations in Chinese.

I think Chen Ning provides excellent Mandarin tutoring for three reasons:

Firstly, her lessons provide high teaching in all areas of Chinese: writing, reading, speaking and listening.

Secondly, lessons are well prepared and grammar is clearly explained.

Finally, ...

I would strongly recommend Chen Ning as a Mandarin tutor. She is kind, patient and excellent at teaching the subject. She is also very passionate about the Chinese language and makes you feel the same.

We feel lucky to have found Ning through a tutorial website.

First, we had a trial lesson and our daughters instantly liked her style.

She engages with them in a way that makes them feel she genuinely cares and adjusts her pace according to their needs.

Ning is supportive, knows her subject very well and also explains to us, the parents, what needs to be done to support our daughters in their Mandarin learning... We would certainly recommend her to other students.

We have had Ning come to our home and tutor our son for three weeks now.

We have only praise for Ning who is very polite and turns up on time for all sessions. Our son really gets along well with her and he is learning at an appropriate speed. We hope that Ning will continue to tutor him for as long as possible as she is a real gem.
