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 ^)

What are your goals?
Let's work together hand in hand to achieve them!

In my lessons...

📕🇯🇵 “Is textbook Japanese different from real Japanese?”
Sometimes it is! The textbook phrase “つまらないものですが” (“It's nothing special, but...”) is now outdated. Instead, ‘気に入ってくれるとうれしいです’ (“I'd be happy if you like it”) sounds more natural and leaves a better impression ☺️ You'll enjoy learning this kind of “real Japanese.”
🇯🇵🗾 How do you say “How are you?” in Japanese?
What should you say for casual greetings?
I'll gently explain cultural backgrounds and how to read emotions, making Japanese communication more enjoyable and understandable.
3 Create natural sentences with fun topics!
“Conjunctions are tough...” “Is this phrasing correct?”
When you feel that way, let's create sentences using fun themes!
“My Favorite Things” or “My Dreams”
With unique practice like this, you'll naturally pick up Japanese expressions.
4 Your Personal Feedback Notebook
During lessons, I'll correct the words you speak into natural, correct Japanese and write them in your notebook. Hiragana included if needed. Reading them aloud after lessons ensures you truly master usable Japanese.
I specialize in lessons that are “gentle, polite, fun, and bright.” Students often tell me, “I feel more confident!” and “I enjoy speaking now!” Let's level up your Japanese together using a learning style that suits you!
