Dewi I teach Bahasa Indonesia or Mandarin Chinese
No reviews yet

Here are the example of how I teach Mandarin Chinese:
我 read as wǒ
"w" as "w" in "week"
"o" as "o" in "oak"
Read the 3rd tone mark on "o" as when you are trying to persuade someone to give you something (lower, then high tone). Now read again: wǒ. It means I or me (singular personal pronoun for the first person).
As for the character shown in left, there are 7 strokes there depicting standing while your hand holding spear to show that you should be have the pride to say I or me.

的 read as de
"d" as "t" in "tall" but without blow (aspiration)
"e" as "e" in "open"
No tone mark on "e" means you can read it in the tone which makes it easier for you to read it.
Now read it. DE. It is a possession mark to show ownership, just like 's in English, or "owned by".

Imagine Chinese characters as jigsaw puzzle with parts to combine. Now let's try to combine the two characters we've learned.
我的 wǒ de = Mine.

That's what you get for a couple of minutes learning with me in a glance. Let's see how much you can learn within a learning session.

Fee details

    Rp200,000/hour (US$12.23/hour)

    IDR 150,000 is the teaching fee I received before in 2013, considering that there should be an increase every year because inflation then IDR 200,000 is a fair number to offer an online class.
