About Suray
My name is Suray, and I'll be your guide into the world of Chinese language and culture.
I started learning Chinese from zero three years ago. Today, I live in China, speak Chinese every day, and still remember every struggle: tones that felt impossible, characters that looked like scribbles, grammar that made no sense. That's why I understand my students so well.
I'm a linguist by training (I graduated in 2023) and a teacher by passion. I've been teaching since 2019, and I truly love working with children – they give me so much positive energy. My lessons are never boring. We use games, real dialogues from Chinese life, and lots of speaking practice.
Besides Chinese, I speak English and Russian. This helps me explain tricky things in a way you'll actually understand.
Whether you're a complete beginner, a parent looking for a Chinese tutor for your child, or someone who wants to finally speak confidently – I'm here to help.
Book a trial lesson with me. Let's see how fun Chinese can be!

Learn Chinese with a teacher who lives in China
Hi! I'm Surai. I've been learning Chinese for 3 years, and now I live in China. I know exactly how challenging tones, characters, and grammar can feel — because I've been there myself.
What makes my lessons different?
Real-life Chinese, not textbook phrases. We use dialogues from everyday life — cafes, taxis, shopping.
Simple techniques for tones and characters. No boring memorization.
I speak three languages (Chinese, English, Russian), so I understand how to explain things clearly.
Why choose me?
Because I'm in China right now. Every day I hear how Chinese people actually speak — slang, modern expressions, cultural jokes. I share all of this with my students. I can even record short videos from local markets or streets for our lessons.
My lessons are for:
Absolute beginners who want to start speaking from day one
Learners who feel stuck with pronunciation or characters
Travelers, expats, or future students in China
Book a trial lesson – let's talk about your goals and learn your first real Chinese phrases together!
For me Teaching is not just about explaining grammar rules，It’s about sharing my passion for the language. I absolutely love giving new knowledge to others – and I found that I feel much more comfortable working with children. They give me such positive energy, sincere involvement, and just a great vibe. During my lessons I stay away from boring memorization, instead I use a communicative approach, games and playful methods, lively discussions about real topics.
