    Miku’s fun and easy Japanese conversation lessons!

    Hello!

    Do you want to learn how to use everyday's Japanese in conversation, some useful colloquialisms or simply travel phrases?

    Then why don’t you study together with me!

    I have been living and studying in several countries and know how important it is to break the language barrier when you want to get along with the people around you and to make new friends.

    Also, a country's language and culture go together in many ways. Especially for the Japanese where sometimes saying few words still conveys lots of meaning. Did you watch "Lost In Translation"? It is somehow like that 😅.

    I am looking forward to studying together with you!

    About Me

    Hi everyone!

    I am Miku and I live in Amsterdam (The Netherlands).
    I can speak Japanese and English and currently I am studying Dutch.

    As hobbies, I love to listen to K-pop, reading Shoujo manga 🌸 and trying many different countries' culinary specialties! 😋

    During my studying abroad in San Fransisco I gained experience in teaching Japanese on a voluntary basis and continued to do so in my home country, too.

    "Online Turkish Lessons with a Guaranteed Speaking Practice with a Turkish Teacher 🤓 / Over 6 Years of Experience 👨‍💻 / Easy Learning Met
    Hello, my name is Yunus. I'm Turkish and live in Izmir. I can't wait to learn Turkish with you.🤗 I love teaching Turkish. If you want, I would like to briefly tell you how we can learn Turkish.🤓 First, in our first lesson, we determine your level together📝 and start our lessons suitable for your level. Our lessons include reading📕, writing✏️, listening🧏🏽‍♀️, and speaking🗣️. I want you to read and translate reading passages in the reading section. Here, we write down and memorize the new words and verbs we learn.🧠 Then, after listening to a text related to our topic, I want you to explain in Turkish what you understood. Of course, understanding the texts might be a bit difficult at first, but we overcome this and learn together. 💪Then, we come to the most fun part, of course, the speaking part. In this part, we talk about the texts we have read and listened to before. Of course, we try to use new words and verbs more. I love people who talk a lot in my classes. It's not a problem even if it gives me a bit of a headache🤕😁 As long as you learn🙏❤️. And finally, I give you a writing assignment related to the topic and eagerly await our next lesson. Also, you can contact me anytime outside of class.📲 I look forward to having you in my class and getting to know you and learning Turkish together. Take care.👋🏾

    This course is intended for anyone who wishes to learn Tunisian dialect (Darija), whether it's for traveling, living in Tunisia, communicating with Tunisians, or simply out of linguistic and cultural curiosity. The Tunisian dialect is a living and rich language, different from classical Arabic. It incorporates influences from Berber, French, Italian, and Maltese. 👩‍🏫 I am Tunisian, I live in Tunisia, and I am fluent in French as well as other foreign languages, which allows me to guide you effectively, even if you don't speak Arabic at all. This course focuses on oral practice, simple dialogues, role-playing, and listening to authentic situations.
