Konnichiwa!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 ^)

My name is Ron, a dedicated Dutch tutor based in Suriname. Originally trained as an HVAC engineer with the intention of continuing my father’s legacy, I transitioned into teaching during the pandemic after discovering my passion for language education. This shift allowed me to embrace remote work while connecting with learners globally. With a friendly and adaptable approach, I prioritize creating engaging, personalized lessons that foster confidence in conversational Dutch. Outside of teaching, I take pride in my family life as a happily married professional who finds fulfillment in helping others achieve their language goals.

I provide Japanese lessons for Japanese language learners.
I focus on conversation practice, correcting mistakes and showing you more natural expressions.
We may also study grammar and practice reading and listening comprehension as necessary.
In my lessons, I may use Japanese textbooks ("Minna no Nihongo" beginner level, "Irodori" online site) or original materials.

For beginners, I also use English or Chinese. At the intermedite levels, lessons are primarily conducted in Japanese so that students can be exposed to as much Japanese as possible.

I know what it’s like to learn very different languages, so my classes aren’t the typical ones: we’ll focus on helping you speak, understand, and build confidence from day one.

🔹 Spanish for foreigners: natural, practical communication
🔹 English for Spanish speakers: improve your fluency and pronunciation
🔹 Basic Japanese: perfect if you’re starting from scratch

I offer relaxed and practical Japanese conversation sessions for learners who already have a basic understanding of the language (around N4 level or above).

This class is not a formal lesson with heavy grammar explanations. Instead, it focuses on helping you become more comfortable speaking Japanese in a natural and supportive environment.

We can practice:
Daily conversation (casual and polite Japanese)
Situational speaking (travel, restaurants, daily life in Japan)
Free conversation based on your interests
Review and light correction using your own textbook if you have one

As a native Japanese speaker with experience working in international environments, I understand how challenging it can be to start speaking a new language. I aim to create a relaxed space where you can practice without pressure.

If you are looking to improve your confidence and fluency, this class is for you.

Discover Japanese through music and let the language flow naturally into your body through singing.
This course is for people who want to sing Japanese songs naturally and confidently.
Learn correct Japanese pronunciation for singing while improving your Japanese through your favorite songs: anime songs, J-pop, traditional Japanese songs, and more.
We will work together on pronunciation, rhythm, lyrics, and expression to help you sing more naturally at karaoke, Japanese festivals, and cultural events.
The course is suitable for both beginners and those passionate about Japanese culture who want to finally sing in Japanese with greater fluency and more authentic pronunciation.
The first 20 to 30 minutes of the lesson are dedicated to Japanese pronunciation for singing. Afterward, we will practice your favorite Japanese song together.

As this is an online course, this program is more focused on learning Japanese through music than on professional vocal training.
● Please send me your song request at least two weeks before the first lesson so I can prepare the teaching materials.
● Lessons are primarily taught in English. I also speak some French and am currently studying the language.

Open to all levels of Japanese, based on the textbook Tobira OR Genki, I am flexible to the student and their needs, and I am able to help with all aspects, such as speaking (formal or informal), writing, and vocabulary. My goal is to help the student become comfortable, and depending on the time the student has as well as their level, I am able to accommodate and also make study sets as well; however, for beginners, time spent studying and memorising is critical. While I can help with all aspects, I am not the best at extremely formal grammar used in settings such as the workplace.
