Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Konnichiwa!We are two Japanese teachers: Rena and Guillaume.
We teach Japanese in pairs, suitable for all levels—beginner, intermediate, or advanced—and all ages: children, teenagers, adults, or seniors.
We cover all programs: conversation, vocabulary, grammar, hiragana-katakana, kanji.
Do you want to learn Japanese effectively and adapted to your projects?
Do you want to acquire useful knowledge and progress naturally in order to reach a current level of Japanese?
If so, we're here to help you make your Japanese study a reality!
– Rena takes care of the parts: pronunciation, conversation and writing (hiragana, katakana, kanji).
- Guillaume is responsible for the explanation of grammar, conjugation and vocabulary.
Since 2015, we have been perfecting this type of teaching.
. You have a travel plan in Japan, but you do not have which manual would suit you best: We have created an ebook exclusively dedicated to travelers.
. You want to study Japanese in school and you want to have a solid foundation: We have the materials and the manuals adapted to your objectives.
. You wish to live in Japan on a working holiday visa (PVT): We can train you effectively so that you can integrate quickly into Japanese society (training in job interviews, business code, creating social links, etc.)
For false beginners, intermediate or advanced students, during the first lesson, we will assess your level and adapt the program based on the result.
For beginners, we will first look at the following points in detail: Learning to introduce yourself, saying your name, your age, what you like, etc.
We can't wait to start classes with you!
Matane!

Japanese you actually use! Learn real Japanese with native local uni student. Not a textbook-type teacher, practical, spontaneous, and fun!Everyone from Beginners to advanced!
Want to learn real casual Japanese from someone who actually uses it?
Whether you’re casually curious or getting ready to go to Japan, I’m here to help — we can meet right here in Brno!
I’m a natural at mixing Japanese while talking in English, so you’ll get used to it in no time!
You can learn Japanese as if you are talking to a friend, or I can also be teacher-like if that’s more comfortable!
If you are more advanced, and want to learn formal/business Japanese, of course! I can guide you the proper etiquette, manners, phrases(敬語), etc...since I have experiences working in 4 star hotels in Tokyo.
If you are curious about other cases, feel free to contact me.
I’m a Japanese university student currently living in Brno.
I spent over 5 years in the U.S., so I can explain things clearly in English (IELTS 7.5), and I’m especially great at explaining how to pronounce and explaining grammar/culture from unique perspectives!
— no confusing grammar talk unless you want it (no worries, I will be flexible!)
If you’re planning to visit or study in Japan, I can help you feel confident before you go:
from ordering food and asking for directions to cultural tips and everyday manners. I will provide you on how to actually survive and have a blast!
If you’re just interested in the language or culture, we can keep it casual and fun — talking about anime, music, trends, or anything else you’re into.
I focus on real-life Japanese — including slang, casual speech, and expressions that textbooks won’t teach you — especially those used by young people.
Lessons are relaxed, flexible, and built around your pace, interests, and schedule.
Let’s make learning Japanese something you look forward to!!

I’m an architecture student currently studying full degree in Brno, if you are interested in architecture I would love to talk!!!
