About James
I am currently in my first year of studying Modern Chinese at Cardiff University. My degree includes two years of study at Beijing Normal University (BMU) where I will gain a further undergraduate degree in Chinese Language and Cultural Studies. This degree has allowed me to combine my passion for Chinese culture with my interest in language. I felt a strong desire to improve my Chinese – initially I taught myself, using books and internet sources, and preparing for the HSK exams. Pleased with my progress I took the next step-travelling to China, here I was able to take Mandarin classes and benefit from total immersion into the Chinese language and culture.

I am happy to help teach and tutor pupils for examinations or for those who are generally interested in improving their knowledge of the Chinese Language. We can work with your books if you are following a specific syllabus, however I can also bring books with me once I have a sense of your level of the language.

To whom it may concern
It is with great pleasure that I write this reference letter for James Cheese-Probert to become a tutor. I have known James since October 2018 when he joined Cardiff University to pursue a degree in Modern Chinese.
From the very beginning James has shown real dedication to his studies and has been an excellent student in approaching all the subject matters required by the programme. James is meticulous in learning, particularly in grasping tones and characters of the Chinese language which are often perceived challenging. James has participated and performed well above the average. This is evidenced by the fact that he has already achieved HSK4 and will progress as the top student of his group onto the next stage of his studies in Beijing.
Not only is James a highly motivated, intelligent and pleasant student to have, he has also been a caring and supportive peer for the rest of his group. He often generously shares experience, knowhow and advice related to the programme with fellow students and has had a positive influence to the group. Moreover, James is a reflective learner and observer, demonstrating critical and constructive understanding of the programme from the perspective of teaching.
For reasons outlined above, I am more than happy to recommend James to this site. I have no doubt that James will make a knowledgeable, patient and effective tutor.
Yours faithfully,
Dr Xuan Wang
