2. Professional tutors

Our team of instructors combines rich educational and linguistic backgrounds and interests. All instructors are native speakers. They are all carefully selected for communicative skills, talent, experience and enthusiasm to share their language.

• They speak very good English, which could facilitate students, especially beginner students to understand better the course contents;
  
• They have rich TCFL experience so that they understand well the problems the students face with and could accordingly help them out;
  
• They are familiar with Chinese culture and cross-culture difference so that they could integrate culture into language learning.

3. Teaching philosophy

• Teaching works better when it is structured and student-centered.
  Our courses offer a combination of a set curriculum, designed by mt, and flexibility to accommodate each student’s special interests and learning needs.
  
• Learning works better when it is made a part of the experiences of daily life.
  Language courses at Modern Training immerse you in these real world experiences with role-playing, field trips, and group learning activities. You learn to speak and understand Chinese in real world situations with teachers who are responsive to your personal needs and interests.
  
• People learn best when they are confident, at ease and happy.
  We are a friendly school with very approachable foreign and Chinese English-speaking staff, which is always ready to help. In such a setting, you will find that language learning happens in a very natural and effective way.
