Learn real Japanese language and culture : Speak Confidently in Daily Life, Business, and Entertainment

Van 42.83 € /h

Interested in Japanese language and culture?

Do you want to understand what’s being said in Japanese movies, anime, manga, or songs? Or maybe you’d like to level up your Japanese for work? I’d love to help you on your journey!

I have a wide range of interests in both traditional and modern Japanese culture, and I’ve also worked professionally training and leading a Japanese language team at a major company. This means I can share not only the language itself but also tips on how it’s really used in everyday life and business.

My lessons are flexible and designed around you:

- Bring along your favorite materials (like books, manga, or lyrics), and I’ll help explain the grammar and vocabulary so you can use them in real-life situations.

- Or, if you prefer, we can follow a structured plan based on your level and goals.

- We can also just have relaxed conversations, and I’ll give feedback to help you get more confident and natural.

Learning Japanese can be fun and rewarding—I’d be happy to guide you step by step!

Over

I’m originally from Okinawa, Japan, and I’ve been living in the UK for over 10 years. Back in Okinawa, I taught English in primary schools as well as privately to high school students and adults. I’ve also taught Japanese both in person and online, in Japan and here in the UK.

Outside of teaching, I’m a singer and graphic designer—so if you enjoy creative things, I’m sure we’ll have plenty to talk about!

TECHNOLOGIES FOR LEARNING.

Hey,

My name is Laurie and I am an independent FLE teacher, graduated in French and Romance languages and literature since 2012. I have five years of experience under my belt (abroad and in Belgium). I have created a teaching method for online courses.

The course includes:
-The material (articles, videos, exercises from images and texts, grammatical theory, links to the exercises...). I use Google Doc so it's best to have a Gmail address to access it.
-The correction of exercises outside of class (the written expressions are corrected outside of class, or with the student, according to his needs).
-Access to an application (free) to study vocabulary on your smartphone.
-A vocabulary sheet - pronunciation - grammar / conjugation, sent after each course.
-If necessary, a vocabulary recording (for beginners).
-The realization of online exercises and tests from the sent vocabulary sheets.
-Motivation, laughter, good mood :-)

My method:
- It's based on speaking.
-For grammar I use a question/answer method (learned during the training at the CERAN center).
-We work on pronunciation with the verbotonal method (exercises for setting your voice, for rhythm, etc.). I might even make you sing! :-)
-Everything goes through the spoken word before the written word, but I clearly adapt to the needs of the students.
-The course is a little different for children and adolescents: I use interactive games and cards via webcam.

See you soon!
Laurie

I have experience and passion in teaching English and achieving good results. Our focus after lessons will also be in the areas of reviews, periodic assignments and examine results progressively.We will also discuss trouble areas, creating good foundation and making use of different methods to move ahead and achieve set goals.

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

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.

Moving to a new country can be hard (having lived in Spain, I know the feeling). Let me support you in learning Dutch as well as finding your way to integrate in the Netherlands. As a cultural anthropologist, I am trained to build bridges between cultures, and I approach differences with curiosity. We will design a learning pathway fully tailored to your needs. I like to use your favorite hobbies as a guideline for the classes: let's make music or play games while your learn Dutch!

Japanese is a beautiful language brimming with culture, but unfortunately, it's also difficult to get started. If you're lost for the trees (or the kanji), or haven't even dared to try it yet, but have suddenly been bitten by the Japanese bug, then you've come to the right place.

I'll teach you the basics of Japanese and grow completely at your level. You'll receive customized learning materials, and I can provide homework assignments if needed. Once you've mastered the basics, we can expand to cultural nuances and more advanced language skills. You can also "request topics." Is there something specific you'd like to learn? Are you preparing for a vacation, or do you simply want to improve your writing? Let me know!

I teach Japanese lessons for beginners, with a clear structure and a focus on understanding, repetition and practical application.
I'm currently studying JLPT N4 myself, which gives me a good understanding of the challenges beginning students face and how grammar and vocabulary can best be built up step by step.

My classes are designed for students who want to build a strong foundation in Japanese without becoming overwhelmed.
