Acerca de mí
Hello, nice to meet you. My name is scot. I am from the United States living close to Mitaka and Kichijoji. I have been living in Japan for over 16 years. I have taught every age from children of 4 years to seniors. Most of my experience is teaching Elementary, Junior and Senior High students. I have also taught Business English for corporations such as Kawasaki, Norichukin Bank, and Marubeni as well as government agencies Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Nuclear Regulatory Authority. I love travelling and experiencing new cultures. One of my favorite things about teaching English is meeting new people and helping them improve their knowledge and skill in communicating. I feel that communicating in another language can help everyone in understanding the world and the many ways of living.

Spanish is a global language. Around 500 million people speak it in over 25 countries. The importance and cultural impact of Spanish is increasing in our globalized world and now is the perfect time to get started learning Spanish or improve your skills.

My class will be dynamic, focused on a natural use of the language and constant speaking and listening. The type of exercises and assignments will be specific for each student and will depend on your preferences and your goals when learning Spanish! Do you wish to go backpacking in South America? Or are you maybe interested in business opportunities in Barcelona? We will focus on what you need and want!

Hicham
Bonjour Bonjour;

You're maybe planning to travel to France for Business or for vacations...Or you just want to learn French for Academic or professional reasons!

My name is Hicham (Here the French spelling of my first name make it sound "HiTChem" in English speaking countries - which i find awful to hear :) so the exact spelling to pronounce it right should be Heesham). And this is the perfect example that Pronounciation is one of the most important matter in French learning; not only for you to be able to understand French words and learn them, but also and mostly to be able to be understood when you speak them. Just like it's hard to understand a new english speaker with a strong foreign accent

Imagine: "Un ver vert va vers un verre vert". Which means that a green worm is going towards a green glass. This doesn't make any sense but it illustrates what we call Homonymes. The word homonyme comes from Latin, more specifically as "Homos" (similar) and "onoma" (name). And it get more complicated when Homophones have the same pronounciation but not the same meaning nor the same spelling. Or worst; "Homographes" which are written the same spelling but complete different meaning and pronounciation. And finally the most tricky ones are the perfect Homonymes like:" un TOUR de magie" and la TOUR d'un chateau. (Magic trick and Castle Tower)...

But don't worry - You don't need to understand what the Oceans are made of to be able to swim.

And this is here I come. I am born in France (born in 1978 in Orleans) - studied in France, Teach French in Morocco, UK, Spain and Italy for Communication Business purposes. I used to teach Sales in French to Non-native French speaker Callcenter Agents in the Philippines lately. Been teaching in English. Yes I have been learning and practicing English since 2012 and I am now perfectly fluent with an accent which is not French :) Yay :) And my role as your French teacher will be to give you the perfect coaching to make you improve your French skills just like I did in French and other languages.

Yes, I am the perfect example that anyone can learn a new language and become like a native one. I'm proud when I meet french people speaking english together when they cannot notice my accent and don't know I'm from France until I tell them.

Of course, I will provide you all the Grammar, Conjugaison, Orthographe and all the basics modules from the French Academy you need to practice and have a proper French conversation. But not only, I garantee you that you will be able to sing in French.(it will develop your French ear and your pronounciation)

My classes are customized for one to one classes or small group of people who want to have a real follow up on your learning evolution. From beginner to advance. It will include private sessions, customized exercises, funny home work... one to one conversations, French songs :) Yes I will sing too.

I will give you all the tools and tricks that I used myself to reach my English level. So together, we will make sure to find the right path for you to learn and practice French with a purpose.

Contact me if you have questions (the pricing offer is per student for maximum group of 10 people). One to one French coaching can be organized as well;

Feel free to contact me

Santiago
Hello,

My name is Santiago and I am native Spanish speaker from Uruguay. I am offering individual and personalized virtual Spanish classes to improve both your oral and written communication. The main focus of my classes is focused on developing fluent and structured communication of the Spanish language either to prepare international exams, or to be able to communicate properly in the professional field or to reinforce and maintain prior knowledge of this language.

I am a graduate, graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in the USA. Having learned English as a child at the Ivy Thomas Memorial School in Uruguay, and lived a year and a half in Thailand, followed by 4 years in the USA I acquired great knowledge and fluency in the English language.

In Thailand I spent a year and a half studying communication arts, which helped me, prepare for my studies in the US. I had several communication classes, learning techniques of how to speak better using not only our words but also our body to help us speak more naturally, calmly, and without getting nervous if we get stuck or forget what we wanted to say. During my career in the US, I was constantly writing essays for my classes, in addition to having to present projects in front of my teachers and classmates. At the same time, I was working at university and after graduation I worked for a year, mainly having long phone conversations with people from all over the country.

If what you are looking for is to improve your knowledge of the Spanish language, I will help you. My methodology is simple. Each person is different and I adapt the content of my classes to the needs and interests of my students. We all learn in different ways and at different times,

- Need help building, brushing up and adapting your Resume and Cover Letters for your job hunt?
- Need help preparing for interviews in English at Foreign/International companies?
- Interested in hearing about job hunt strategies and platforms?

- Applying for positions at International companies is a very different process than applying for positions in Japanese companies.
- Foreign interviewers screen and interview with a different mindset and specific expectations : it's always worth hearing from those who've gone through that process many times, managed HR processes themselves.

Let's see how we can make your job hunt easier and more efficient!

I am a doctoral student at Meiji University, in Tokyo, and I would like to bring my experience in teaching Spanish to foreigners to Japan.

In Salamanca, the mecca of Iberian Spanish, I was able to teach young people from all over the world from the first levels of acquisition such as A 1 and 2 to the more academic Spanish of levels C.

I live in Tokyo, so I could travel or teach my courses online. I speak naturally Japanese (N1) and English.

If you want to start studying Spanish, take it up again or just start from the beginning, don't hesitate and contact me!

My name is Gabriel, and I'm a certified English Teacher from South America! I speak both Spanish and English at a native level. I've recently relocated to Tokyo and I'm on an adventure learning about your beautiful country and language. I majored in English and Linguistics, so I have a lot of knowledge about how language acquisition works in our brains! My previous jobs were at a bilingual school and online working with adults, preparing them for exams and teaching them English for future life challenges. In classes, we're going to use games, technology and talk about YOU a lot! Besides, I'm going to share with you very interesting practical tips for passive language acquisition ( for outside the classes). Looking forward to getting in touch with you! :)
