In 2008, I went to teach Animation at Zhaoqing University in China. I have passed the highest level Mandarin speaking and reading test in China, which is equivalent to a city-level TV/news presenter. Passing this exam at this level shows I speak very standard Chinese with...

Wei is a lovely and dedicated teacher who is thorough throughout her lessons and takes the time to explain anything you’re struggling with in great detail to make sure you fully understand. She sets regular homework, marks it carefully, and goes through it with you, pointing out any mistakes and explaining how to improve. She’s always very well prepared and organised, making each lesson structured and productive. Her teaching style is patient and encouraging, which really helps to build confidence when learning Mandarin. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive and knowledgeable tutor.

I've had the pleasure of being tutored by Jonathan for both Maths and Mandarin throughout part of year 10 and year 11 in preparation for my GCSEs , and i can confidently say that he has done an excellent job. His teaching has made a huge difference to my understanding in both subject.
He always explains things clearly, and is patient when i need extra help to understand, and adapts his teaching style to suit how i learn best .I am really grateful for all the time and effort he has put into helping me succeed. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated tutor.

Brilliant Mandarin tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is aiming for a competitive course at the University of York. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Our tutors can help your child develop the Mandarin skills that will make their UCAS application shine. Highlighting a skill like Mandarin shows a global awareness and dedication that admissions tutors at top universities, including York, really value.
With the high standards at schools like St Peter's and Fulford, how can a tutor give my child an edge?
A private tutor provides focused, one-to-one attention that isn't possible in a busy classroom. They can tailor lessons to your child's pace and learning style, helping them build both skills and confidence. For a unique subject like Mandarin, this expert guidance can be the key differentiator that helps them stand out.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Mandarin tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That’s why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right Mandarin tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos from our tutors, read reviews from other parents, and send messages to ask questions before you book. This helps you find someone with the right experience and teaching style for your child.
How much do online Mandarin tutors in York cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
My child is a complete beginner in Mandarin. Is that okay?
Of course! Our tutors have experience working with students of all levels, from absolute beginners to those preparing for advanced exams. They will create a lesson plan that starts from the very beginning and builds your child's confidence step-by-step.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident about learning a new language?
Learning a new language can feel daunting, but a one-to-one tutor creates a safe and supportive space. Your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, practise speaking, and celebrate small wins, which all helps to build their confidence and enjoyment of the subject.
How often should my child have a lesson?
We find that a weekly one-hour session works best for most families, as it provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, you have complete flexibility to arrange sessions as often as you and your tutor feel is right for your child.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding too?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new craft, you can find experienced tutors to help them explore their passions.
How do online lessons actually work?
We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With over 4,100 customer reviews giving us a 4.6-star rating, parents trust us to provide high-quality, personalised support. We've helped over 200,000 students find joy in learning, and we're here to help your child too.
