Japanese courses in Geneva suitable for all levels and ages

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Konnichiwa!

We are two Japanese teachers: Rena and Guillaume.

We teach Japanese in pairs, suitable for all levels—beginner, intermediate, or advanced—and all ages: children, teenagers, adults, or seniors.


We cover all programs: conversation, vocabulary, grammar, hiragana-katakana, kanji.


Do you want to learn Japanese effectively and adapted to your projects?

Do you want to acquire useful knowledge and progress naturally in order to reach a current level of Japanese?

If so, we're here to help you make your Japanese study a reality!


– Rena takes care of the parts: pronunciation, conversation and writing (hiragana, katakana, kanji).

- Guillaume is responsible for the explanation of grammar, conjugation and vocabulary.


Since 2015, we have been perfecting this type of teaching.


. You have a travel plan in Japan, but you do not have which manual would suit you best: We have created an ebook exclusively dedicated to travelers.

. You want to study Japanese in school and you want to have a solid foundation: We have the materials and the manuals adapted to your objectives.

. You wish to live in Japan on a working holiday visa (PVT): We can train you effectively so that you can integrate quickly into Japanese society (training in job interviews, business code, creating social links, etc.)

For false beginners, intermediate or advanced students, during the first lesson, we will assess your level and adapt the program based on the result.

For beginners, we will first look at the following points in detail: Learning to introduce yourself, saying your name, your age, what you like, etc.

We can't wait to start classes with you!

Matane!

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!

If you already have some knowledge, we will choose together the grammar points on which you will focus to progress effectively :) 🍡 Advanced Reading and Listening For learners who already have a solid foundation, these courses help strengthen your reading and listening skills.

Learn Korean with a Native Tutor | Grammar, Speaking, Writing, and Polite Korean
✅ Want to speak polite and natural Korean like a native? People often get so caught up in the methodology of learning Korean language, but it's not about what method you use. It's about how much input you get and how often you practice it. Many Korean textbooks for foreign learners include expressions that sound unnatural or even rude in real conversations. I'll help you avoid these and speak clearly and respectfully, just like real Koreans do. ✅ Who is this tutor? I’m a native Korean tutor with 4+ years of experience. I have lived and worked in Korea all my life. I value language, nature, simplicity and honesty. Helping others is one of the most rewarding parts of my life — that’s why I’m here. ✅ What you'll get: - Vocabulary, grammar, and sentence building - Native expressions and natural tone - Personalized feedback and lesson notes - Flexible Zoom lessons - Cultural context and local insight ✅ Lessons are online via Zoom. - I'm in Korea. (KST time zone) - Please be on time so we can use the full 60 minutes efficiently. - Important: Please contact me before booking to schedule your session time. Let's build your Korean step by step. As your tutor, I'll guide you with care so you can speak and write confidently and naturally. Thanks, Yeon
