    Human medicine materials, biology +. Biochemistry + biostatistics and others for university students, as well as the English language for all levels and the Japanese language.
    In language learning lessons, it is determined according to the student’s level and desire. You can start from the first level for beginners. In Japanese language lessons, the book we learn from is Minna no Nihongo, which is considered a very rich book and suitable for learners of the Japanese language from scratch, and it provides a rich experience in grammar, words, and kanji that is appropriate for this stage.

    Student in Japan for 3 years, offers online courses!
    I have been a French student in Japan for 2 years now at APU University (OITA Prefecture)!! I also hold the N2, Japanese certification. I offer introductory and advanced Japanese language training, which is essential for traveling and communicating with Japanese people. Upon request, I can also assist with academic Japanese language training, which can be used for university studies in Japan. I prefer speaking and could, upon request, give you the opportunity to chat with some of my Japanese friends to familiarize you with the different accents and the Japanese language. I also have Japanese language textbooks provided by the university that I will refer to if needed. Being a big fan of manga and anime myself, I plan to use them to further the course!! Typical procedure: - discussion about everyday life - introduction of new words and KANJI/KANA - written and oral practice - introduction to a new grammar and putting it into practice - discussion and analysis of manga/anime or other media This course is aimed at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. よろしくお願いします!!
