Learn Japanese language and culture! (any level, JLPT N1 tutor)

Hello.

I am 23 years old Polish guy who just moved to Utrecht from Kyoto - yes, I know, quite a combination! I am currently pursuing MSc in Financial Management and possess two bachelor degrees - Economics and Japanese Studies - which I completed simultaneously.

I lived in Japan, Kyoto for a year where I attended 上級(advanced level, N1 and above) university course. I currently possess the N1 certificate.
I have also worked in a fully Japanese (Japanese capital, Japanese people, twisted Japanese business rules) company in Kyoto and am looking forward to sharing this experience with you!

I am open to teach anyone, be that a student or a working person, but I believe my knowledge would be the most useful for a person who is ultimately looking to use their gained skills in a professional setting.

If you wish to learn Japanese from the very beginning I am using the Genki textbook + workbook. Mastering (not only skimming through) Genki 1 and 2 with someone who can guide you along the way can get you very far in real-life conversation and - depending on the time commitment, will, and previous exposure to the language - can be done in a relatively short time.


For those who have already completed those textbooks - we will discuss your needs and adjust the lessons to that. Personally, based on the previous experiences I believe I could help you the most with "opening up" to freely converse in Japanese.

If you have any questions - hit me up! The lessons can be taught in Japanese, English, and Polish.

Konrad was very friendly and explained a lot of things right away about the system of learning Japanese. We got to start of the study quickly and he gave me home work which I'm happy about so I can study also at home before our next lesson!

Finanzas para niños: Aprende a gestionar tu dinero
Financial literacy is an important skill for kids to learn at an early age. I know many adults who would have loved learning about it earlier. They will learn about saving money, spending money wisely, and managing their finances. First, they will learn and think about how and why saving money: - short-term and long-term goals they can save for (e.g. a toy, a trip, college education). - how to create a budget and track their spending. - Compound interest and the impact of starting to save early. How to spend money wisely: - difference between needs and wants. - how to compare prices and make informed purchasing decisions. - learn what is impulse buying and method to take the time to think before spending. How to managing money: - Keeping track of spending and creating a budget - Different types of bank accounts, type of money and currencies - learn what are credits, how they work and how it can impact their finances in the future. This class is made for kids, so it'll include use games, puzzles, and interactive activities to help them understand the concepts while having fun.

Learn Korean and Japaness with a reriable teacher !
I currently live in Frankfurt. I have experience teaching Korean and Japanese to students of various levels at a language school in Frankfurt and also online. I am from Seoul, Korea and I majored Japanese studies. I completed the Korean language training course for foreigners, an expert course. But what more important thing than this theory class was that what difficulties the students have while I am teaching. Korean and Japanese are one of the difficult languages for German or English speakers. Therefore I provide a variety of course materials and provide customized classes. And I repeat until they get used to it. Let’s study fun and patiently with me. A reriable teacher! I know what it's like for you to learn a foreign language, because I learned English, Japanese, and German. What you need in the process of learning a foreign language is a teacher who listens patiently and teaches calmly. I will play that role.

Shall we 挑戦?

🇯🇵Native Japanese graduate teacher gives online lessons🇯🇵Beginner~Intermediate🌸
I am a Japanese woman who was born and raised in Osaka Japan. I studied cross-cultural communication at a university in Tokyo and followed a Japanese language teacher education program established by the Japanese government. These courses are intended for people who want to learn Japanese but also Japanese culture. Are you passionate about manga or cooking? Or do you want to chat with your Japanese or Japanese friends? Otherwise you want to travel or work in Japan? (Learn professional and important codes for all companies, officers and employees.) I would happily teach you the Japanese and Japanese culture you need :)

R. Mauricio
Basic Japanese language course (for absolute beginners)
The Japanese language is one of the most difficult languages to learn due to the complexity of its writing system and the many erroneous learning methods based on the acquisition of Western languages. I have developed a different learning system taking into account the acquisition of kanji in a functional way. You will be able to learn the basics of the Japanese language by studying its culture and kanji. You will quickly be writing basic kanji and using it from the beginning of learning the language. Likewise, you will quickly be able to understand basic issues of Japanese behavior in society and its traditional culture in a general way within an A1-N5 level.

Japanese Class from a native Japanese speaker living in Utrecht!
Japanese language, Japanese culture, anime etc has been increasingly popular in many countries worldwide lately. Japanese is a difficult yet very beautiful and interesting language to learn. If you would like to learn Japanese, and learn about the life in Japan in general, you came to the right place! I give fun easy going lessons by mostly encouraging you to speak, because taking it into practice and talking is the quickest way to learn!
