About Me

Learning a language is a great gateway to delve into the world's cultural richness, be it your own or a culture you encounter. Having spent my childhood moving from city to city and living in several countries, crossing oceans and borders for my study, this has become one of my fundamental questions: How can people from various backgrounds meet each other and live together harmoniously? As a language teacher, I encourage my students to open themselves up to embrace diverse cultural richness through active and student-led learning with the unique teaching methods I established.

Reviews (1)

We were warmly welcomed at Marie's home for a group Japanese lesson, organized for my daughter's birthday. She adapted the lesson to my daughter's interest (manga) and birthday. The lesson was clear in structure and a very nice way to get acquainted with the Japanese language and customs. Two of the three girls would like to continue Japanese language lessons with Marie online after this lesson.

This is individual Japanese/Japanese language instruction for primary and secondary school students whose native language is Japanese or who are growing up in a bilingual environment. By reading aloud a variety of texts and writing compositions, students will gradually improve their Japanese skills. ・Learning programs adapted to each level, objective and environment ・Those who want to improve their Japanese skills in a bilingual environment ・Those who wish to take entrance exams or pursue higher education after returning to Japan Living outside of Japan, knowing the world of languages other than Japanese, and knowing the language of Japan, which is far from Europe, all have the potential to broaden one's horizons and the world. It is an irreplaceable experience. I would like to use my experience living in Europe as a child and my university studies as a returnee in Japan, and help them learn Japanese together so that they can develop Japanese as an important language for them.
Are you interested in learning Japanese language because you love Japanese pop culture, traditional art, or history?

This is an ideal class to kick start your leaning Japanese language for practical communication or for your deeper understanding of the culture.

Chiaki
Japanese Lessons - Born in Tokyo, I have a Master's degree in Language Education and am certified in Japanese language teaching
Hello!🍡 My name is Chiaki (千明 in Japanese, it means "a thousand lights") and I am a Japanese teacher in Lausanne. Passionate about foreign languages and cultures, I studied Japanese teaching at university and obtained a master's degree in language teaching. I truly believe that a good teacher is also a learner. Through my own experiences with languages like English, German, Arabic, Italian, Korean, and French, I have come to understand the challenges, doubts, and joys that come with diving into a new language. For me, learning a language is more than just words. It’s a way to see the world through a new lens, to understand different cultures, and to build bridges between people. I believe that this knowledge can break down barriers and foster a more peaceful world. 🕊️ As a Japanese teacher, my goal is to offer my students the chance to discover the world through the “Japanese prism”🌈 If you dream of learning Japanese, I would be happy to accompany you :)

Alice
Native Japanese teacher gives Japanese lessons at all levels (18 years of experience). Personalized methodology
All my lessons will be based on the correct interpretation of the nuances of the language, and this is where my "TRI-CULTURE" will serve you best! I will teach you the language and its grammar, as well as the culture and customs through different media chosen especially for each student. I start with Hiragana Katakana which are the basis of the Japanese language, then I continue with the grammar rules necessary to found your own sentences. Then I begin the more elaborate grammar rules of conjugation using different media (texts, videos, songs, etc.) with explanations of sentence nuances. I'll cover Kanji (for those who are interested) and I'll explain how they work, which isn't always very well explained when you start learning Japanese alone. I always give homework from one class to the next so that you don't forget what we learned in class. For JLPT preparations I will base myself on past papers or other materials which will allow you to work on your gaps (Listening, Reading or Writing). I also do exam and interview preparation coaching, particularly working on Keigo and polite turns of phrase.

Ayaka
Let's learn Japanese with a native through a casual talk
-------About me Name: Ayaka Origin: Osaka Japanese: Standard Japanese, Kansai dialect Jobs: Flight Attendant (past), Yoga Instructor (active) Hobbies: Traveling, Yoga, Photography, Walking and hiking, Cooking, Skiing, Animal lover ----------About the Lesson--------------------- The main focus will be on "Speaking." Q. Why is speaking the main focus? A. We want you to experience the joy of speaking Japanese through free talk. Just learning words from manga is not easy to understand what natives say in daily life. I will assist you in learning vocabulary and acquiring natural expressions by speaking with native Japanese speakers. -----A message to the students at the end----- I love cultural exchange and have a friendly personality. Having traveled to various countries and learning German, I understand the challenges and joys of learning a new language firsthand. This makes me happy to be able to help you learn Japanese. I look forward to the day when we can have enjoyable conversations together.
