Learn Mandarin pinyin, the 5 different tones and 200 Chinese words in order to lay a solid foundation to read, write and speak Mandarin fluently. This course is not an immersion class, a conversational class, a character writing class or even a basic or advanced grammar class. The main focus for this course with me is to help keep learners on track and to provide encouragement, support and crucial feedback for the learner’s Mandarin pronunciation. Learners are required to purchase the...

What started out as a kind of “party trick” soon became a super fun hobby! For 4 years I was a sought after VIPKid English immersion teacher because I relentlessly taught excellent English pronunciation. I actually hated learning English growing up but I found that I loved teaching the pronunciation part of English. I simply started learning Mandarin to communicate better with my Chinese students and of course they thought it was absolutely hilarious to hear me botch it all up. So I thought to myself, “I’m a classically trained pianist, how hard can Mandarin really be to learn?”. So, I started seriously studying Mandarin over 2 years ago, despite my older Chinese students telling me not to, because they said it's way too difficult even for them! That made me even more determined to show them I could do it! So I started out studying on my own and then eventually enrolled into the incredible Mandarin Blueprint course. I've completed the "Pronunciation Mastery" course as well as 16 levels in the huge Mandarin Blueprint course. I continue to really enjoy it and study daily. My degree is in music education, with a proficiency in piano and a secondary in voice, so learning pinyin and the 5 different tones has been easy for me. The two creators (Luke and Phil) of the Mandarin Blueprint have given me their written permission to teach/tutor the "Pronunciation Mastery" portion of their amazing course to kids, since currently they focus solely on teaching their course to adults.
Homework Offered
Along with the course content I highly suggest that learners spend a few minutes every day to do their Travserse flashcards.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class

In order for your learner to take these tutoring classes with me you must do a one time purchase of the Mandarin Blueprint-"Pronunciation Mastery" course. It's only $97 dollars and that gives you a lifetime access to it. Just take a screenshot for me to confirm your purchase. Here’s the link for purchasing the “Pronunciation Master” course: https://www.mandarinblueprint.com/courses/chinese-pronunciation/ Just know that this is only the onramp to the larger Mandarin Blueprint course where they teach 600 Chinese characters,1,000 most common words, 7,000 digital flashcards and 80% of Chinese Covered by frequency. That part of the course will not be available to the learners.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Parents you need to do a one time purchase of $97 for the “Pronunciation Mastery” course online from Mandarin Blueprint.com. https://www.mandarinblueprint.com/courses/chinese-pronunciation/ This is built for adults so you may need to help your learner navigate this a bit. You will also need to download and make a free account on Traverse.link (flashcard app). Use the same email as you do for purchasing and registering for the PM course and then it will automatically populate the flashcards for you. A Google account is needed so that a few pronunciation slides can be shared there as well. I'll be supplementing this course with great little Chinese learning songs on Youtube. So they will need access to Youtube as well. It also helps me greatly if I can see your learner’s mouth while they practice the pinyin sounds for me during class time.

Nothing more rewarding, as an educator, than to see faces light up with joy after accomplishing something they thought was much too difficult to accomplish! Sometimes, a learner needs to be gently nudged beyond what they think they can do. Tears...
