ようこそ ! Japanese can be a tricky language to learn and master because it's so different from English! I offer friendly, relaxed private tutoring online that is tailored to meet your needs. I can work with first-time beginners with no experience, to intermediate and advanced levels. Let me know if you're looking for 1.) a regular meeting for conversation practice, 2.) a regular meeting for homework help, or 3.) a structured course. I've worked individually with both children to adults with class options entirely in Japanese, mostly in English, or a mix of both. You can bring your own textbook and scan the sections for me, or I can provide all the materials. Message me anytime so we can discuss your goals/needs to see if we're a good fit for each other. If you're not sure what Japanese level you're at, we can also work on figuring that out. I'm excited to support you! 一緒に楽しんで頑張りましょう !
Información adicional
Online tutoring is available via Google Meet (30-90 min per session), Skype (30-90 min per session), or Zoom (30 min per session).

I offer a course in Japan focused on developing grammar and vocabulary—two aspects that are both difficult and frequent—in spoken language. This course aims to provide an innovative approach to linguistic techniques, without being a theoretical or academic subject.

During the lessons, I combine the theoretical aspect of the language, essential for speaking correctly, with the practical aspect, which allows one to express oneself understandably and to interact effectively with native speakers, while maintaining a certain critical distance from both.

Thanks to my experience in Japanese interpretation and my stays in Japan, I can convey a natural and spontaneous approach to the language.

The course focuses on grammar, vocabulary, and writing (kanji). Starting from the perspective of a speaker of an Indo-European language, it aims to allow learners to acquire the structure of Japanese naturally, freeing them from any unconscious biases related to their native language.

I also pay particular attention to the link between written and spoken language – an often surprising aspect in Japanese – so as not to separate these two dimensions.

Comprehensive Japanese classes for any student who is interested in taking their first steps in the language. The classes are designed to have an approach to the language both culturally and formally, so there will be didactic activities designed so that the student can feel a genuine interest in the language and advance around that. I like to spend time getting to know the student and their needs to create classes that are as personalized as possible. Since I also specialize in topics related to the history of Japan, I have no problems dedicating workshop classes to other aspects that are about this country. I am now at your disposal for classes! Keep in mind that the first class will be to get to know each other.

Foreign languages aren't just useful tools for making international friends; they're also a way to integrate and discover new cultures. As a bilingual native speaker, I know that learning a language requires a lot of work, both in the language you study and in the one you're born speaking. Between untranslatable vocabulary, new grammatical concepts, and new sounds to produce, there are plenty of exciting aspects to the art of knowing how to speak a language.

Passionate about international affairs and multilingual, I speak French fluently, Japanese since birth (born and raised in Japan), Spanish at intermediate level +, and English at B2 level. I'm a recent beginner in Korean but I already know a little of its grammar ^^
I offer online or face-to-face courses in Toulouse, focusing on pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary using explanatory diagrams with my graphics tablet, and exercises that I will propose during the courses.
