This lesson aims to help the student differentiate and correctly use a / à, and / est, son / sont, using fun and interactive activities.

The session begins with a detective game where the student spots homophone errors in sentences. He then discovers the rules using flashcards that associate each word with a simple trick.

Various games help to anchor this knowledge: the target game to complete sentences, the right path game where the student physically chooses the right answer, and the hidden words challenge where he guesses and justifies a homophone in a sentence.

Finally, the student becomes a teacher and invents sentences for the adult to complete. A quick review concludes the session, with a small challenge to complete at home.

Learning is based on manipulation, play and experimentation, making the session dynamic and effective.

About Me
I am French, a primary teacher, specialized in teaching allophone children and French as a second language.
I work with many children integrated into the French school system and also with children who follow the Japanese course.
For the little ones, I teach reading, writing and language basics. For older children, I offer adapted lessons, I work with CNED documents and I help with homework.
I am the father of two perfectly bilingual young children who are in the Japanese education system.
as much as possible, I include parents in the learning process.
I also organize a lot of activities to give the children the motivation they need to continue their learning.
Education

School teacher diploma at Aix-Marseille University in 2008.
Degree in history in 2005.
Experience / Qualifications
Since 2010, I have been working in several educational structures in Japan. I specialize in teaching French to young children with French as their main language, second language or language of learning. I also work with allophone children.
I work on site, often from home, but also a lot online, especially with adults.
I have a great experience of working with children. I have very good contact with them. Through several innovative techniques and many proven methods, I give a strict framework to learners allowing them to express their creativity.

I have been using Minecraft to teach French to Franco-Japanese children for almost seven years. I use it as a support and a vector, both as a means and a reward for the children. I have developed a set of techniques that will encourage them to work on their French and will even make them progress without them realizing it. These lessons are strictly supervised, and an activity report is systematically shared with the family.
I even wrote a college dissertation on this technique.

Hello, my name is Emi. I live in Tokyo and work in an office while also teaching Japanese. I majored in Economics at university and have over 20 years of experience working in back-office roles. Along the way, I enrolled in an art university and completed a master’s program in art studies while working. After working as a part-time university lecturer, I am currently writing my doctoral dissertation.

About My Lessons
Drawing on what I’ve learned through my professional experience and academic background, I offer practical and personalized lessons tailored to each learner’s needs.
I provide lessons mainly in Japanese, but I can also support learners in English when necessary. You can feel relaxed and enjoy the learning process at your own pace.

◆Conversation Lessons: From Small Talk to Office Communication
Target: Learners who want to improve their conversational skills in natural Japanese
Content: Small talk, workplace interactions, phone and email communication, polite expressions, and selecting appropriate language depending on the situation, etc.

In Japanese, honorifics and expressions vary subtly based on context and the relationship(level of familiarity or social distance) with the listener. My lessons help you naturally master these nuances by exploring the cultural values and thought patterns behind the language, while practicing realistic conversations.

◆Lessons Using the ‘GENKI’ Textbook Practice Sections
Target: learners who being studing with GENKI or who want to review.
Content: Adapted practice sections that are often difficult to tackle alone, focusing on sentence patterns and other grammar points.

The goal is to reinforce what you have learned and help you use it confidently in conversation.

◆Reading Comprehension Lessons (News Articles / Novels / Essays, etc.)
Target: Learners who want to deepen their understanding of written Japanese and enhance vocabulary and expression
Content: Using authentic Japanese texts such as news articles, novels, and essays, we work on vocabulary, grammar, and contextual understanding to improve reading comprehension.

You will also develop the ability to interpret cultural nuances and implied meanings, and engage in discussions to enhance your critical thinking and expressive skills.

◆Academic Japanese
Target: University or graduate students, or those who need to prepare presentations or read and write papers
※For more details, please feel free to contact me.

Lastly, a Few Words About My Approach to Teaching Japanese
Having studied English and Spanish myself, I deeply appreciate the complexity and subtlety of Japanese expressions and culture. Japanese reflects unique cultural values and ways of thinking, and direct translations are often insufficient.
By learning the cultural and contextual background behind expressions, you can achieve more natural and precise communication beyond just knowing vocabulary and grammar.
Therefore, my lessons emphasize sharing the cultural nuances behind the language. This approach makes communication in Japanese more enjoyable and meaningful.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to contact me.!!
