1. Knowing Cantonese will unlock more career options. Did you know that Hong Kong ranks third as a global financial center (after New York and London), and it’s the richest city in the world? Not only is Hong Kong an important financial hub in Asia, but it also has the highest Financial Development Index score and was ranked as the world’s most competitive economy. Most international institutions and businesses have footprints—or even their Asian headquarters—in Hong Kong. Being familiar with the Cantonese language, culture, and business environment can be key in settling important negotiations, making major deals, or even opening up new career opportunities. 2. Learning the language will broaden your horizons. Hong Kong’s “East meets West” culture is unique: Hong Kong became a British colony in 1842 and was handed back over to China in 1997 under the “one country, two systems” arrangement. Under this arrangement, Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China—it enjoys a greater freedom of speech, a separate legal and judicial system, and has its own government, customs, and currency. Even mainland Chinese have to go through Immigration checks upon arriving in Hong Kong. 3. Cantonese will connect you with others. Cantonese is the oldest and most popular Chinese dialect spoken in Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macau, and some neighboring areas around the eastern part of Guangxi. It’s the official language in Hong Kong and Macau, and is historically the most popular form of Chinese spoken outside of mainland China. I’m not kidding about Cantonese being spoken everywhere. It’s the most widely spoken dialect among Chinese communities in Canada, the United States of America, and Australia, as well as Europe and Southeast Asia. 4. Knowing Cantonese will facilitate friendships with the locals. Want to make local friends and know more about the everyday life of Hong Kongers? Even though English is one of the official languages in Hong Kong, Cantonese is the go-to language in the everyday lives of locals. Not to mention the fact that people from the more rural areas may not even speak English at all.A solid understanding of Cantonese can make your experience in the local Hong Kong markets, rural areas, and restaurants so much smoother and a lot more fun! And you’ll be able to make new local friends along the way and hone your friendships (or even a new romance!) with the local language. 5. Cantonese is easy to learn. Cantonese is straightforward! For example, Cantonese grammar rules are simpler than those of many other languages. We don’t have tenses (past, future, past perfect, etc.) like English does, nor do we have grammatical gender like French. Also, we’re quite direct when expressing ourselves. Many Cantonese learners, in an attempt to translate what is polite in their own language, actually make a mess of a sentence in Cantonese by adding a lot of unnecessary words.

Hi, I'm Rui based in Shanghai, China. I myself is a crazy language lover. After graduation from Chongqing University in China 5 years ago, I went to Tokyo for further study. Believe it or not, I could NOT speak any foreign languages at all back then. I became able to study and work both in Japanese and English within only 3 years. I have been to 20 countries as a backpacker and I came to realize that learning a different language is just a piece of cake. All you need is what I'm going to teach you later if you study with me. I make the best use of my inspirations and techniques from being a language learner myself into my teaching:) ✍ Master degree in MBA from Aoyama Business School in Japan 📎 Work experience: Apple, Amazon ❤ 4-year experience of teaching Chinese as a community tutor in Japan ✔ Could teach in: Chinese(native) English(proficient) Japanese(proficient) Korean(Intermediate) Spanish(beginner) ・JLPT N1 ・TOEFL 95 ・TOEIC 880 👀 Customized teaching approaches(only basic goals below) - Beginners to communicate in Chinese for daily use purpose; Read and write in short paragraphs - Intermediate students to communicate easily with native speakers; Read and write short articles - Advanced students to communicate fluently with native speakers over a wide range of topics; Read and write long articles - Businesspersons to E-mail writing, delivering presentations, negotiating and plain small-talk 🥚Learning materials based on students' levels and demands If you'd like to learn Chinese with me, please feel free to contact me or book lessons directly:) PS: I promise I will not only teach you Chinese, but also share the wonderful episodes I had to help you expand your horizon.
