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 ^)

ॐ नमः शिवाय!
Hello, Namaste, नमस्ते , My name is Ritu, and I'm from New Delhi, the capital city of India.

🙏🏼 As you may or may not know! 🙏🏼

⭐ Sanskrit is the oldest, purest and most systematic language in the world.

⭐NASA has described Sanskrit as the best language for computers. NASA has been researching on 60,000 Sanskrit manuscripts written on palm leaves, to decipher the ancient technologies from the manuscripts.

⭐A mantra is a word, or a phrase chanted repeatedly to invoke spiritual qualities. The Sanskrit root word ‘manas’ translates as mind, and ‘tra’ means instrument or tool.

I would describe it as result-driven. My teaching style can best be described as interactive, supportive, and transparent.

In this course, you will embark on a linguistic journey to learn Arabic, one of the world’s oldest and most widely spoken languages, or Darija, a dialect of Arabic spoken in Morocco. Whether you’re a beginner or have some knowledge of Arabic, this course will cater to your needs and pace.

The course will cover the basics of Arabic or Darija, including the alphabet, vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure. You will learn through a variety of interactive methods such as dialogues, exercises, and cultural immersion.

But this course is not just about language learning. It’s about discovering a new world. As you learn Arabic or Darija, you will also explore the rich history, culture, and traditions of the Arab world. This cultural understanding will enrich your language learning experience and give you a deeper appreciation of the Arabic-speaking world.

By the end of this course, you will have a solid foundation in Arabic or Darija and a greater understanding of the cultures where these languages are spoken. You will be able to communicate effectively in a variety of situations, opening up a new world of opportunities for travel, work, or personal enrichment.

My name is Nicolas, and I am a Brazilian Portuguese teacher with eight years of teaching experience. I have been speaking Portuguese for about ten years now. I learned the language while living in Brazil for several long periods, both for study and work. I am currently living there again.

Having also gone through the process of learning to speak this language, I am well aware of the different stages my students go through. This helps a lot.

My lessons are tailor-made to achieve personal goals and are adapted to the specific needs of each student.

Practice is prioritized throughout the learning process in order to gain autonomy as quickly as possible. Grammar is also covered, depending on the student's level.

This course is aimed at:
- Beginners (basics, conversation, travel);
- Intermediate/advanced learners (improvement, exam preparation);
- Professionals (business Portuguese, interview preparation).

Currently based in Brazil, I am teaching my classes online. I will be back in Geneva in mid-December for in-person classes.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Learning a language means opening yourself up to new ways of being, living and interpreting the world around us.

With a degree in Portuguese and Literature from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), I offer support that goes far beyond simple grammar. My approach is rooted in creating a space for pluralistic dialogue, where your interests and worldview enrich each session.

I envision our sessions as an environment of exchange and freedom. Here, you are invited to express yourself with complete confidence, respecting your own pace and process of discovery. My role is to guide you through the organic logic of Brazilian Portuguese, using creative resources—exclusive visual aids, contemporary narratives, and interactive dynamics—that reflect the diversity and depth of real Brazil.

Together, we explore the nuances of Brazilian culture and literature in authentic contexts. I offer you a gateway to a vibrant culture and a new way of experiencing the language.
