Practical Japanese Conversation: From Beginners to Advanced

From 73 C$ /h

I am a Japanese teacher in Paris, and my classes are suitable for both beginners and those who already have a good understanding of Japanese.
For beginners, we will learn Hiragana and Katakana together, as well as basic greetings and self-introductions, allowing you to practice and enjoy real, useful Japanese.
For more advanced students, I offer conversation classes. We will discuss various topics while practicing Japanese conversation skills along the way.
Let’s learn in a relaxed and enjoyable setting, perhaps over a cup of coffee at a café.
Whether you’re just starting or already learning Japanese, I’ll help you improve your skills and gain confidence in speaking.

Learning Japanese for Traveling and conversation with japanese.

75 C$ /h

Are you planning a trip to Japan?
The truth is, most Japanese people don’t speak much English. While they may try to communicate using a few words, knowing even a little Japanese can be incredibly helpful! It will also make them happy and even more welcoming.

In this class, I will focus on practical conversation, based on my experience as a tour guide. We’ll cover essential Japanese phrases that my guests often wanted to learn while traveling.

With this knowledge, you’ll be able to enjoy conversations with locals, creating unforgettable memories on your trip to Japan.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.

I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

Hello my name is Audrey!
I'm a student in international relations and Chinese foreign languages at INALCO. Because of my studies and having traveled a lot, I know how difficult it can be to learn a foreign language and how difficult it can be to overcome certain levels and to be confident in a language that is not our mother tongue.
That's why I offer you my help! I am a French native from Poitou Charente. I traveled all around the world when i was
a teenager and a young adult especially in Asia. Now i'm finishing my studies in Paris. For several years, I have been teaching English to children and adults of all levels. I have accompanied Koreans, Iranians, French etc.
My goal is that you enjoy learning English and reach your goals. The course will be totally personalized and adapted to your needs and interests. I will also introduce you to the culture during our lessons (current events, highlights of the year, etc.) because in order to learn a language you need to understand the culture of the country.
My classes will focus on the five skills: speaking, writing, listening, reading and grammar. Of course, if you wish to work on only one aspect in particular, this will be possible.
We can use the material you have or we can also work with the resources I have.
At your request and according to your needs I can give you homework to continue your efforts outside of our classes.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I will be happy to discuss with you your expectations, your goals and my work method.

I look forward to helping you in your quest to master the English language.

Hola,
¿cómo estás?☺️
My name is Joana. I am a native Spanish teacher, with a degree in Spanish Literature and Language and a Master's degree in Spanish as a foreign language (UNED Faculty).
■ Since 2009 I have been working at the Cervantes Institute as an OFFICIAL EXAMINER of DELE diplomas (Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language)
(I am fluent in French, so during the course I give all the necessary explanations in French on grammatical rules or vocabulary.
Having extensive teaching experience, I prepare students/adults for all levels of the DELE Spanish Diplomas and for all official Spanish exams within Universities.
● Spanish courses for adults who intend to travel or live in a Spanish-speaking country.
● Specialized fun Spanish courses for children (6-13 years old), audiovisual material, interactive games on the internet, choice of textbooks taking into account their age. Children learn the language through experiences and experiences while having fun.
● Help with school homework/exams for French students (all levels, + preparation for BTS, CNED)
● Spanish courses for adults who use Spanish in a professional context (Business Spanish: tourism/restaurants, law, etc.)
● Spanish pronunciation/phonetics/conversation courses (exercises provided by the Cervantes Institute). During my Master's degree, I specialized in Spanish phonetics for foreigners. Students can achieve a very good level of oral production even if they are beginners* :)
● Written production, grammar, oral and written comprehension.
● Spanish civilization course.
I live in Spain, so I give all my classes on Skype.
Skype classes are very flexible and as effective as face-to-face classes! (100% success rate for all Cervantes Institute DELE diplomas and all university exams!)
■ COMPLETE learning materials provided to all my students according to their personal level/age/interests (DELE preparation manual, grammar book, pronunciation guide, notes, mp3 audios)

I will be happy to read from you.

A greeting,
Johanne :) 👩🏻‍🏫🇪🇸

Are you stuck on math? That's normal — and it's fixable.

As an experienced teacher, I teach all levels in Paris and via video conference.

My method:
- Go back to basics without judgment, build intuition, and make math logical rather than mysterious.

- Each student leaves with their own record of the lesson.

Whether you're aiming for the brevet, the baccalaureate or competitive exams, we'll move forward together at your pace until you achieve the results you deserve.

Good morning ! Hello! Guten Tag! Buna ziua! Konichiwa!

I give private or corporate French (FLE) lessons.
I come to your home!

I teach in French using a lively and modern method.
I hold a Master's degree in linguistics.

I can teach any audience, including groups of multinational origin, without any problems!
No discrimination with me! Whether it's based on culture, origin, background, gender, or religion. I can also adapt lessons according to these criteria if needed.

My teaching approach depends on each request and can be completely customized to meet individual needs:

- Obtaining diplomas or certifications (DELF/DALF...) for beginners or experienced candidates
- Upgrading for starting or resuming studies
- Learning for pleasure and/or culture
- Translation assistance (oral, written, documents, essays, reports...)
- Preparation for a trip / an event
- French for Specific Purposes (FOS) for vocabulary and professional scenarios (examples: Medical, military, educational, social fields, computer vocabulary...)
- Creation of support materials for businesses (PowerPoint presentations and translation tools for multilingual businesses, flyers or accompanying brochures, etc.)
- Integration of migrant populations
- etc ...

I specialize in teaching adults and teenagers, however I can also teach children who already have a foundation in reading and writing as well as people on the Autism spectrum (skill acquired by teaching a close relative with the condition).

Listening Comprehension / Reading Comprehension / Speaking / Writing >>> YES!

BONUS: Holder of 2 Master's degrees, my other specialty is shooting/Photography/Lighting and cinema >>> I can teach all the vocabulary AND techniques related to these fields.

Je propose un accompagnement personnalisé en mathématiques, sciences et travail scolaire pour les élèves de 7 à 17 ans. Les cours sont adaptés à l’âge de chaque élève, à son niveau scolaire, à son programme, à son rythme d’apprentissage et à ses besoins individuels.

Cet accompagnement peut servir de soutien scolaire régulier, d’aide aux devoirs, de renforcement des notions fondamentales, d’aide pour surmonter des difficultés spécifiques, de préparation aux contrôles et examens, ou simplement permettre à l’élève de gagner en confiance et en autonomie dans son travail.

Selon l’âge et le niveau scolaire de l’élève, les cours peuvent inclure :

¤ Mathématiques — calcul, fractions, pourcentages, géométrie, algèbre, équations, fonctions, trigonométrie, probabilités, statistiques et résolution de problèmes

¤ Sciences — sciences générales, matière et énergie, notions de base en physique et chimie, biologie, corps humain, environnement, ainsi que d’autres thèmes selon le programme scolaire de l’élève

¤ Aide aux devoirs et soutien scolaire — compréhension des cours, réalisation des exercices, révision des notions difficiles, préparation aux contrôles et développement de méthodes de travail efficaces

Mon approche pédagogique évolue avec l’âge de l’élève. Pour les plus jeunes, je cherche à rendre les mathématiques et les sciences intuitives et intéressantes grâce à des explications claires, des exemples concrets et une approche qui stimule la curiosité. À mesure que l’élève progresse, j’introduis progressivement un raisonnement plus structuré, des méthodes de résolution de problèmes et davantage d’autonomie.

L’objectif n’est pas simplement de terminer les devoirs ou de mémoriser des informations, mais d’aider l’élève à comprendre ce qu’il apprend, à développer son raisonnement, à gagner en confiance et à devenir progressivement plus autonome.

Je suis titulaire d’un doctorat en physique et possède une solide formation académique en mathématiques, physique et sciences expérimentales. J’adapte chaque cours au programme scolaire réel de l’élève plutôt que de suivre un programme fixe.

Les cours peuvent être dispensés en français ou en anglais, avec des explications en arabe lorsque cela peut faciliter la compréhension.

I offer English lessons tailored to each student's level, goals, and needs. As an American and native English speaker, I am also bilingual in French, which allows me to easily support French-speaking students and explain any difficulties clearly and accessibly.

The courses can focus on conversation and speaking, reading and listening comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or even school and university English.

I can also teach science in English, including biology and biochemistry, for students who want to develop their scientific skills while improving their English. This approach is particularly well-suited to students in a bilingual program or those wishing to learn scientific vocabulary in English.

For students who want to improve academically, I can help prepare for tests, exams, oral presentations, and written assignments. For more advanced students, I also offer tutoring in academic English, writing, and communication.

I favor a personalized and interactive approach, with activities tailored to each student's level and objectives. My goal is to enable each student to gradually gain confidence and independence, while developing concrete English skills.

Courses can be offered in person, in a hybrid format or entirely remotely, depending on the student's preferences and needs.

Hello! I offer academic support for elementary and middle school students to help them better understand their lessons, get organized, and gradually become more independent. This includes completing and understanding homework, reviewing lessons covered in class, preparing for tests and assessments, improving their organization and study methods, and working on their French and English skills.
I adapt to each child's needs by prioritizing simple explanations, patience, and a working method tailored to their pace.
