I have studied Japanese language at the university of Nagoya Japan and obtained JLPT Niveau 1 (The highest level of the Japanese Proficiency Test)I also studied Classical Japanese and Classical Chinese at KU Leuven. I have also obtained a Postgraduate in Korean Studies at KU Leuven. In 2011 I became the winner of the Japanese speech contest organised bij Nihonjinkai in Brussels.

About Me

Japan en de Japanse taal en cultuur zijn al heel lang mijn grote passie. Ik ben zeer gedreven en gepassioneerd om mijn ervaringen te delen met andere mensen.
Ik geef ook zeer graag les en begeleid mijn studenten individueel op het tempo dat zij wensen en met de inhoud die zij wensen.
Mijn jaren lange ervaring in het lesgeven zowel in Japan als in Belgie is dan ook een van mijn sterke punten.

I am glad that I ended up with Anne for Japanese lessons. She prepares lessons that are well prepared and tailored to the student. Anne clearly has a huge knowledge of Japanese and can explain everything very clearly.

My son and I are taking Japanese lessons with Anne and we love it! The lessons are well structured and logical, and Anne is very friendly and well prepared. Recommended!

Anne is a teacher that prepares her lessons in advance. You get a lot of attention as a student and I really felt welcomed from the first minute. Anne is very clear in her communication and organisation (and this also encompasses how she guides you towards the first lesson, making sure all is clear). It is clear that she has a profound knowledge of the Japanese language as well as the didactical methods to teach it. What I appreciated was her openness and the fact that you can shape the lessons to make them fit with your personal goals you have for studying Japanese, whatever they might be. I definitely recommend working with Anne!
Very nice teacher with a lot of knowledge. Lessons are very well prepared and tailor-made.

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.

Achieve Real Vietnamese Fluency in Just 2 Months – with a Native Speaker (5+ Years Experience, Proven Results, Tailored for You)
Speak Vietnamese Fluently in Just 2 Months! Hi! I'm Thương, a Vietnamese teacher from Hanoi – the heart of Vietnam's culture. I'm a patient, cheerful, friendly tutor who is passionate about helping international learners speak Vietnamese naturally and confidently. In my lessons, I use real-life stories and everyday conversations to help you not only improve your Vietnamese, but also understand the culture behind the language. Whether you're focusing on grammar or communication, I will always tailor the lessons to what you need most — so that you can see fast and meaningful progress. Whether you are: ✅ A complete beginner starting your Vietnamese journey ✅ Planning a trip to Vietnam and want to speak like a local ✅ Working or doing business in Vietnam and seeking deeper connections ✅ Moving to Vietnam to live with your loved ones ✅ Or simply fascinated by the Vietnamese language and culture — I have a personalized roadmap just for you. I’ve worked with students from Japan, South Korea, the U.S., Germany, China, and more – helping them not only master the Vietnamese language but also deeply understand the culture and people of Vietnam. I teach in the Northern Vietnamese accent (Hanoi dialect). I also speak English (TOEIC 800+) and Japanese (JLPT N2), which allows me to explain difficult concepts in an easy and understandable way. Outside of teaching, I love traveling, exploring, and taking international friends to discover local food, cultural sites, and hidden gems around Hanoi. I hold a professional certificate in Teaching Vietnamese as a Foreign Language. With over 5 years of experience, I have taught students of all levels – from absolute beginners to advanced learners aiming to use Vietnamese for work and daily life. What I offer: Vietnamese for everyday communication Vietnamese for travelers Vietnamese for work and business Correct pronunciation with the Northern accent Vietnamese culture, customs, and norms Focused skills practice: speaking, listening, reading, writing I also hold an International Tour Guide License, so if you're planning to visit Vietnam, I can guide you on amazing journeys across the country – from North to South. And when you’re in Hanoi, we can even study together offline at some chill cafés or beautiful cultural spots in the city – learning in the most fun and authentic way possible! Do you find Vietnamese tones hard to remember? Is the grammar too flexible and confusing? Maybe you’ve studied for a while, but still can’t speak naturally? Or you feel like Vietnamese is dry and difficult to enjoy? You might have thought: “Why is Vietnamese so hard...?” You’ve been there, right? 👉 I totally understand – many of my students have felt the same way at first. But don’t worry! With the right approach, Vietnamese can actually be fun, clear, and full of life. 🌱I’ll help you learn with simple, practical, and interactive lessons that match your pace and interests. Whether you want to speak confidently while traveling, understand your Vietnamese partner better, or simply explore this beautiful language and culture — I’m here to guide you. Together, we’ll turn confusion into clarity, and fear into confidence. 💪 Let’s make Vietnamese learning an enjoyable journey you’ll love! 👉 Don’t wait any longer – apply now and let’s start your Vietnamese journey together!
