Post subject: Looking for 1 on 1 Mandarin Instructor

Hello,

I am a young successful business owner in the United States who speaks cantonese and have been taking mandarin lessons for three months in the United States. I will be staying in Shanghai for one month in April and also plan on more trips throughout the year. I will be in Shanghai between March 4th & March 8th to meet prospective candidates.

I am looking for 1 on 1 instruction 15-20 hours per week. I may also ask for this person to accompany me on trips throughout China.

The right person must be able to teach conversational mandarin in social settings as well as mandarin spoken in a business setting. My field of work is in internet and investing. So someone up to date with latest internet related terminology is important.

Here are the summarized requirements:

- Native mandarin speaker
- 2+ years of teaching social and professional mandarin
- Understanding of internet and investment related terminology
- Be presentable and organized

Responsibilities:
- Provide 15-20 hours per week of speaking
- Be able to provide ample time in April and be available throughout the year for multiple week arrangements
- Able to travel to other cities

If interested, please reply via email at lawrence.ng@gmail.com with your:

- Years of teaching experience
- Detail of non-teaching work experience
- Number of students taught
- Time availability
- Rate per hour
- Teaching materials used
- Teaching technique
- References
- Picture

I will be in Shanghai between March 4th & March 8th to meet prospective candidates.

Thanks,

Lawrence
