After you provide me your goal and request, I will customize a lesson for you. Or, if you just want to know travel Japanese, I will teach you the most useful phrases with cultural background and fun websites. Understanding something and being able to do the thing are totally different things. After you understand meanings or grammar points, I will assist you to reach the point that you can actually use it to express yourself in Japanese. Repetition is the key for learning language but it should be fun so that you can keep up motivation. That's why I am here for you until you can actually use Japanese to communicate with other people. Even JLPT doesn't have speaking test, improving communication skill in Japanese will boost your score to the next level. I will provide you reasonable homework each time, for example : Writing diaries or essays in Japanese, Kanji practice, etc. And I have a PhD and have been a Japanese tutor for American students in the US for years. Additionally, I have six years of experience in Japanese public schools and lived in many cities in Japan. We can share many unique Japanese culture that I experienced and studied in Japan, too. I love to talk to new people and share different perspectives and experiences to each other. Do you want to improve your speaking and communicating skills in Japanese? Please contact me and let's talk and learn Japanese together!!!

Trusted teacher: Laureate of the Faculty of Letters and Human Sciences, Chinese Studies, at the Confucius Institute. Having the teaching of foreign languages and audiovisual as a part-time job allowed me to gain experience; I know this area well and I am competent to lead a course. By working with comrades of different nationalities (French, Chinese, English, American, African ...) in festivals and seminars I have well developed the competence of cross-cultural communication. My courses are aimed at young and old alike, from those who want to know the basics of Mandarin to those who prepare for competitions or who wish to improve their pronunciation / accent. I can also teach you to write Chinese symbols if you want. Depending on the objectives of each, I undertake to propose an adapted methodology, which can then be discussed in order to be optimized according to the requests. Smiling in life and serious at work. My studies and my stay in China allow me a good command of the Chinese language, a rich knowledge of the didactics of Chinese, as well as a strong communication capacity. In addition, I have a good level of Mandarin Chinese (level 1,2 3 and 4 in the oral and written Mandarin test which is called HSK and HSKK). My academic background in journalism allowed me to perfect my journalistic writing skills which encouraged me to write many articles in Simplified Chinese, as well as I developed my translation skills. Except the language, I will be able to explain Chinese calligraphy and Chinese culture (Chinese history, mythology, Buddhism, Taoism, etc.) to you at the same time. I developed these subjects for 3 years and presented in the university "SKEMA Business School" for one year. Besides the Chinese language course, you can also learn about my Chinese culture topics. It's up to you. In addition, I master 2 Chinese instruments, the bamboo flute (Dizi / 笛子) and Guqin (古琴). If you are interested, I will be happy to give you instructions. I also do martial arts, we can talk about it. I look forward to your message!

Trusted teacher: ╭══• ೋ•✧๑♡๑✧•ೋ ೋ•✧═╮ WHO AM I ╰══• ೋ•✧๑♡๑✧•ೋ ೋ•✧═╯ My name is Lizzie, born in 1991 in Toulouse. Graduated with a degree in Japanese Language, Literature and Civilization, I have been giving private lessons since 2018. I went to travel to Japan for a total of 1 and a half years, from 2015 to 2017. I return to Japan every 2 years or so. When I returned to France, I decided to become a private Japanese teacher, specializing in teaching beginners. My classes are intended for people who are starting from scratch or who already have some background and who wish to obtain a JLPT N5 or N4 level. I want to share my passion, tell you anecdotes and teach you to speak and write this language! ╭══• ೋ•✧๑♡๑✧•ೋ ೋ•✧═╮ PRIVATE LESSONS ╰══• ೋ•✧๑♡๑✧•ೋ ೋ•✧═╯ My courses are tailored to you. Long-term learning? Express? Without learning kana? Leaving for Japan soon? Choose the training that suits you, at your own pace! I prefer to have a little discussion with the student before starting, to know their level, their pace, their preferences, their hobbies, their passions etc... My lessons will be based on my past experiences in Japan, what I was taught and my own books. All the exercises are adapted to each of you. We will study together oral comprehension, writing, reading, translations... The courses will be held in person or remotely (for all of France). No travel, no group lessons (except for pairs of 2), no children under 16. For any other information, do not hesitate to contact me! Yours, Lizzie

Trusted teacher: Are you interested in learning basic Japanese? Survival Japanese skills make you easy to explore Japan. Let's enjoy your special moments in Japan as much as possible communicating with local people!🤗🤗 I have been teaching Japanese for 10 years in all over the world. I know your needs, and we can reach your goal as fast as possible!! My students sometimes describe me as a patient teacher. But it's not technically true. I am just aware that impatience doesn't help my student study😊 [Teaching experience] I majored Japanese Education for foreign learners in Kyoto University of foreign studies. My teaching experience started from an internship in an University in the Netherland. After my graduation, I taught Japanese at a language school in Vietnam and in an University in Costa Rica as a professor. Lately I was a Japanese instructor for the U.S. Navy in Japan. As you see, I like to travel and to meet new people from all over the world. That's why I love my job!!🤗 I would love to know your country through this opportunity! [Lesson type] These are the lesson types I can provide. You don't need to choose one at this moment, and we can combinate them as needed. A: Textbook based A lesson based on a textbook. You can preview/review at your own pace. We will focus on oral practices, checking pronunciation and applying the grammar points into a real life situation (advanced practice). ☆Managing your schedules by google spread sheet is also available. If you want me to assign what to do weekly, please take advantage of it🤩 Of course it will be customized only for you. It would be useful and efficient for your rocket study. This is optional, so if you are not willing to use this system, there is no problem!! B: Open conversation We can talk naturally and find a topic / new grammar / new vocabulary in a lesson. You can also bring a topic to talk / discuss about. C: Special lesson A lesson based on a specific topic you want to work on. For example, to prepare your presentation in Japanese, to write your CV/resume in Japanese or intensive listening / writing / Kanji practice etc. [About Textbooks] I will ask your goals of the study before the trial lesson. During the trial lesson we can discuss the best way to get to your goals. Beforehand you can refer to my basic ideas about the textbooks. A. You have your own textbook(s) I am familiar with many textbooks. If you have your own textbook already and if you are willing to use it, let's use it. B. You don't have textbooks and you are going to buy some new one for your study I recommend Japanese for Busy People (4th edition) for the most of English speakers. You can choose Kana (Japanese alphabet) version if learning Japanese alphabets is included in your study goals. You can choose Romanized version if you want to focus on speaking or conversations. C. You are not thinking of using a book at this moment. You want to know basic phrases for your upcoming/future travel to Japan I coordinate the class using my original materials. My expert is "Survival Japanese". I know all of the essential expressions to survive in Japan ;) After finishing these basic sentences, we can talk about another material for the upcoming lessons. D. You are not thinking of using a book at this moment. You have something you want to talk or practice Of course we can do conversational class as well. I have had many students with this style. We can talk about many topics or what you want to practice more. For example, one student has been practicing a martial arts, his goals is to deepen the idea of the martial arts and prepare the next visit to Japan. We talk about the history or culture behind with some phrases in Japanese. Another example is with an advanced student who was looking for some effective practice for improving his listening skill. With several tries and small changes, we have managed the class successfully to suit his purpose. Just I want you to know that we can coordinate our class as you want and we can change the plan if needed. I am super supportive to your success, let's do it together!🥰 If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me anything! I am so excited to see you soon😍🔅

Paolo
rating star
rating green star
My lesson with Paolo was super comfortable and well structured. He made sure to understand my level, my goals and adjusted his teaching accordingly. I learned a lot, especially because he introduced me to new language learning techniques as well, that I hadn’t expected would work as well for me as they did. It was definitely one of the best lessons I’ve had so far and I plan to continue with Paolo as well~

Taimu
rating star
rating green star
I was very impressed by how well Taimu had prepared the lesson - I haven't seen a similarly well prepared (language) teacher in my experience. The entire time I could notice that she had given a lot of attention to details while at the same time keeping the atmosphere light by interweaving anecdotes with the study material. I would highly recommend Taimu.

rating green star
I really enjoyed my first lesson with Soko. She is very friendly and helps me when I am not understanding something by trying to explain in a different way. She is a world traveler so we have a lot to talk about! Looking forward to my next meeting with her. I would recommend her to anyone wanting more opportunities to practice speaking Japanese.
