Japanese lessons from beginners to advanced people who love Japan
It would be a great pleasure to share my language and culture with you!
The classes are semi-structured and can be scheduled flexibly, depending how you would like to study.
The aim of the class is to be able to speak and understand the language in an intuitive manner. In the lessons we therefore mainly focus on conversational training. I also provide some (home) excises and practice it together.
We can focus on different aspects of Japanese - both language and culture -depending on your preference. Culture is important because in Japanese, the way how you speak is just as important as what you actually say.
During the lesson we will handle a variety of subjects, practice vocabulary and pronunciation as well as deal with both intermediate and advanced issues with grammar and expressions in an interactive and engaging way.
Along the way I hope you will come to like Japan even more than before!

Practice your Japanese with interactive conversations!One of the fastest way to learn a language is to practice the speaking. In this class you will be focusing on how to talk about different topics in beginner or intermediate levels. Themes range from daily conversations, getting-around, travelling, lifestyle to news.
Both formal or informal speaking skills will also be covered according to your needs.
Aside from interactive conversations, a part of the class will be focusing on grammar and vocabulary improvements. Pronunciations and sentence structures will also be focused on.
The content of the classes can also be tailored according to your learning goals and expectations.
About me: started tutoring Japanese to children before entering college and worked in Japan for a short period of time. Currently working in a Japanese company. JLPT N1 Certificate (2018)
Ayaka
Let's learn Japanese with a native through a casual talk-------About me
Name: Ayaka
Origin: Osaka
Japanese: Standard Japanese, Kansai dialect
Jobs: Flight Attendant (past), Yoga Instructor (active)
Hobbies: Traveling, Yoga, Photography, Walking and hiking, Cooking, Skiing, Animal lover
----------About the Lesson---------------------
The main focus will be on "Speaking."
Q. Why is speaking the main focus?
A. We want you to experience the joy of speaking Japanese through free talk. Just learning words from manga is not easy to understand what natives say in daily life. I will assist you in learning vocabulary and acquiring natural expressions by speaking with native Japanese speakers.
-----A message to the students at the end-----
I love cultural exchange and have a friendly personality. Having traveled to various countries and learning German, I understand the challenges and joys of learning a new language firsthand. This makes me happy to be able to help you learn Japanese. I look forward to the day when we can have enjoyable conversations together.

Easy peasy Japanesey! Private lessons for the Japanese language!Easy peasy Japanesey! こんにちは(Konnichiwa)!!! A native Japanese tutor is here. Let me support your language journey with my hardest!! My lessons will be provided in English and Japanese!
First of all, I truly appreciate and respect your decision to learn Japanese—one of the most challenging languages to master.
Currently, I am also learning Arabic and French myself, so I completely understand how tough it is to learn new languages from the start, and there’s no easy way to acquire a new language. That’s why I’d love to help you with mine, which happens to be one of the hardest!

Strategy Meeting - Check your "actual" Japanese levelWould you like to know what level your Japanese actually is? Would you like to know which part of your Japanese is in need of extra work? I will stay brutally honest to support you for upgrading Japanese efficiently. Like "no pain, no gain", weak points could be the sweet spot because it has the space to grow once you know what to do and how to work on.
My schedule could be flexible so please feel free to contact me!

Private lessons to learn Japanese culture and languageKonnichiwa!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 ^)

This class is focusing on your speaking ability. Do you want to use Japanese in daily life? At work or school? Let me know your situation that you use Japanese, and practice practical Japanese!
