I am an American woman who has been studying Mandarin on a computer (Rosetta Stone). I plan to be in Taipei for one week, approximately January 22-30, 2013, and would like to meet with a tutor most mornings for 3-4 hours during that period. I am in interested in learning and practicing conversational Mandarin. I'm not interested in learning to read or write Chinese characters. I see us talking together, walking in Taipei, visiting stores, and practicing speaking in Mandarin.
I've been here for 5 months but I still have problem with basic conversation. I'm Indonesian fluently in English because I've got my degree in Australia. So If you want be my tutor please contact me. Just call if you offer cheap price or free. We can just hang out as language exchange partner.

Hello!
My name is Justen and I am a 28 year old American. I work at a school right near City Hall MRT, and am looking to pay a tutor to come here and can teach me using a classroom that we have here. It would just be me, and we could use any resources here. I am using Chinese Practical Audio Visual, and I am on lesson 3 of book 2. I can buy you a copy of the book. I am most concerned about just being able to use the words of each chapter, I am usually pretty good at learning to read them quickly. In terms of writing, I am not concerned about handwriting and practice writing through typing on the computer (using pinyin).
I am looking maybe for a college student or someone who will be cheap. I can pay you by the week or the month. This can last through at least August!

Hello! My name is Mark and I just arrived in Taipei. I am looking for a tutor who can help me with basic Mandrin (mostly listening and speaking). I would prefer to meet anywhere on the red/green MRT line (between Gongguan and Shuanglien) two or three times each week for 2 hours. I am on a student budget so most likely I can't afford the more highly qualified teachers (NT250-300/hr). Bachelor's degree or less is ok.
I've been in Taiwan for 3 years. I can easily get around with all basic Chinese, so I want to take it to the next level.
I bought the Practical Audio Visual books and studied by myself and I'm half way through Book 3. Problem is I'm just memorizing things and never use them in real conversation!!
So I just want someone to chat with in Chinese. Someone who asks great questions to spark a conversation which forces me to speak and try to use the Chinese I've already learned.
To be honest, my BEST conversations happen with taxi drivers (but it's not practical to sit in a taxi for 1 hour!). So I don't really care about teaching degrees because nobody can teach conversation skills...
I'm looking for probably just 1 hour/week to start and anytime on the weekend is best for me.

I am looking for an one on one tutor near the area of Zhunan.
I was born in Hong Kong but moved to Canada at a very young age. I'm able to read most of the Chinese characters, but have some difficulty writing and have trouble with some pronunciations.
If you live around Zhunan, or located to Hsinchu, i would be delighted to have you assist me.
Best regards, Johnny.
I'm looking for a teacher who is willing to meet two (or maybe three or four) weekday mornings at 7:45-9:15 at Mr Brown Coffee, Bade Road Section 3. To start, I'm interested in practical Chinese: how to read menus, order food and drinks, ask directions, talk to taxi drivers, tell a girlfriend she looks nice, etc. You: please be an enthusiastic teacher, flexible yet also slightly demanding. I need to learn and need someone to push me a little.

Hello everyone,
My name is Stephen and I am a 24 year old American English teacher/musician who just arrived to Taipei 2 weeks ago. I was so busy back home that I had no time to learn Mandarin! I'm looking for someone to meet with about once a week to do LE and hang out around Taipei
I'm a very outgoing person. In my spare time I play piano/drums and sing in some bands in the U.S. I've already played a few shows in Taipei. I would love to learn more Mandarin. In return I can help you with your English. Send an email if interested.
Thanks
- Stephen
大家好! I will be traveling to Taipei for 10 days from 21 June - 1 July and am looking for a Chinese tutor for some of the time. Because this is my first time to Taiwan, I want to practice Chinese but also be a tourist. I am looking for a tutor who can be flexible with hours, who can teach during the days during the week and maybe one day on the weekend, and who can spend up to 4 hours a day teaching me Chinese. I am mostly looking to practice speaking and listening on contemporary topics and also reading. Please e-mail me at [email protected] and tell me a little about yourself and if you are available for a few days next week and the following week!
I have lived in Taiwan and Asia for a number of years but am very embarrassed with my low level of Chinese!!!
I am from the UK and live and work in Guting - I work in finance as a fund manager and this is mostly where I need help with my Chinese (although I would also like to be able to communicate better in day to day conversation too). I would prefer someone who has a good understanding of stock market/trading/investment terminology and to a lesser degree, finance and accounting practices.
I would also be happy to consider language exchange as well as private tuition... that way, maybe we can learn from each other...

Hello! I've been in Taiwan for three years now and still only speak the very basics, if that much. I am looking for a tutor that can show me more vocabulary, phrases and Q&A in pinyin. In the future I want to learn to read and write, but at the moment I really need to be speaking and hearing more. Two to three times a week is preferable, either at a coffee shop or in the study room in my building. I live in Xinyi, next door to 101. Feel free to contact me at [email protected]. I want to begin class mid-next week.
