About Me

I have studied in multiple countries, including Hong Kong, Taiwan, Belgium, Australia, and Malta, which has given me a deep appreciation for different cultures and language learning experiences. Throughout my education, I was immersed in school programs taught in English, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Dutch.

My passion for languages extends beyond the teaching —I enjoy learning new languages myself and understanding the challenges and strategies that come with it. I have also completed teacher training with a linguistics course, which allows me to understand both the theory and the practical aspects of language acquisition. Because of this, I know how it feels to learn a new language and what learners truly need. For me, language learning should be fun and engaging, and I hope my students feel the same! 😊

Konnichiwa!こんにちは!

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 ^)

I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives.

I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job.

I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!
