Konnichiwa!こんにちは!

Are you going to Japan? Do you like Mangas? The culture and the Japanese language attract you but you never dared to start?
On the contrary, you already have a good foundation and want to take the JLPT exam? Or maybe you have to speak Japanese at work?

My courses are adaptable according to your level and your objectives:
- Discovery of culture and language (great beginners and false beginners)
- Improvement to prepare JLPT 1-5 exams
- Professional needs

We can work writing and speaking, with a method (Japan Foundation) or any other desired medium.

Whatever your motivation and level, Maki Sensei is here to help! (^ O ^)

The goal of this class is to achieve JLPT N1. This is for those who already obtain N2 or who have the knowledge equivalent to N2.

After achieving N2, maybe you lost your goal and don't know what to do or what to aim at. Maybe, N1 is on of your option. Achieving N1 is for sure a tough and rough way to go, but that is why I'm here!

My name is Ron, a dedicated Dutch tutor based in Suriname. Originally trained as an HVAC engineer with the intention of continuing my father’s legacy, I transitioned into teaching during the pandemic after discovering my passion for language education. This shift allowed me to embrace remote work while connecting with learners globally. With a friendly and adaptable approach, I prioritize creating engaging, personalized lessons that foster confidence in conversational Dutch. Outside of teaching, I take pride in my family life as a happily married professional who finds fulfillment in helping others achieve their language goals.

I offer Japanese courses adapted to all levels, from complete beginners to learners wishing to prepare for the JLPT or develop their professional Japanese.
I lived in Japan for over 4 years, including 3 years working for a Japanese company, which allowed me to acquire excellent command of the language, but also a deep understanding of Japanese culture and communication in a professional context.

Having earned my JLPT N1, I also understand the challenges faced by French speakers, as I myself learned Japanese to the highest level of certification. My goal is to make this learning process clear, progressive, and motivating.

My courses can help you to:

* Beginners in Japanese.
* Prepare for the JLPT (N5 to N1).
* Improve your speaking skills and comprehension.
* Preparing for a trip or an expatriation project.
* Learn professional Japanese and the codes of Japanese corporate culture.

Each lesson is fully personalized to your goals, level, and learning pace. I place great emphasis on practice and understanding so that you can use Japanese confidently in real-life situations.

I also speak fluent English, which allows me to offer lessons in French or English, depending on your preference.

Looking forward to accompanying you in your Japanese learning journey!

Learn Japanese online with a native Japanese teacher, former director of a Japanese school and with more than 20 years of experience.

The classes are one-on-one and tailored to your level, goals, interests, and learning style. You can start from scratch or work on specific aspects if you already have some knowledge of Japanese.

We can study conversation, pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, kanji, and Japanese for travel or everyday situations. I also offer job interview preparation, formal language, and professional communication for those who need to use Japanese in the workplace.

In each class you will receive clear explanations in Spanish, practice Japanese through real-life activities and situations, and get personalized feedback to continue progressing with greater confidence and autonomy.

It's not just about memorizing words or expressions, but about understanding how Japanese works and learning to use it naturally in different situations.

Do you study Japanese but rarely have the opportunity to actually speak it? This class is designed for learners who want to spend less time listening to explanations and more time expressing themselves in Japanese.

You will do most of the talking. I will ask follow-up questions, explore your answers in more depth, and help you keep the conversation going. We can talk about daily life, travel, work, Japanese culture, current interests, or any topic on which you would like to share your thoughts.

I previously worked as a consultant in Japan. Asking questions, leading discussions, and helping people organise and communicate their ideas clearly were important parts of my work. I use these skills to create conversations that go beyond simple small talk.

I will not interrupt you for every small mistake. You will first have the opportunity to finish expressing your thoughts. I will then help you correct important mistakes and introduce more natural ways of saying what you wanted to say.

After the lesson, I can also send you personalised feedback notes containing corrections, natural expressions, and alternative ways to communicate your ideas.

This class is ideal for learners who already know some basic Japanese but need more opportunities to speak. The aim is to improve your fluency, confidence, and ability to hold deeper conversations in Japanese.

Lessons are available in person in Groningen and online.

Learn Japanese with a Native Japanese Teacher

Hello! I’m a native Japanese speaker and a Japanese teacher. I offer friendly and practical Japanese lessons for beginners and intermediate learners.

All lessons are conducted in Japanese. Don’t worry if you are a beginner! I will speak slowly and use simple Japanese according to your level. I’ll help you understand and express yourself step by step.

Whether you are learning Japanese for travel, work, hobbies, or simply because you love Japan, I will tailor the lessons to your goals and interests.

What we can study

* 🗣️ Everyday conversation and speaking practice
* ✈️ Useful Japanese for traveling in Japan
* 📖 Grammar and vocabulary
* ✍️ Reading and writing
* 有 Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji
* 🎌 Japanese culture and everyday life
* 💬 Natural Japanese expressions and pronunciation

If you would like to study with a textbook, I can also use the “Genki” textbook for our lessons. You will need to purchase and prepare your own copy of the textbook.

I believe the best way to learn a language is to use it and have fun. I encourage you to speak Japanese as much as possible during the lesson, even if you are still a beginner.

You don’t need to speak perfect Japanese to start communicating. Making mistakes is a natural part of learning, and I’ll support you along the way.

Let’s enjoy learning Japanese together!
