English and/or German Language - Conversation Practice

Hello - my name is Lisa and I am originally from Germany. I am living and working in Japan for almost 3 years now and since April I am a student myself improving my Japanese skills. Therefore I will be very flexible and happy to help you with English and/or German. I don't have any further teaching experiences, but supported students before back in 2012 when i was an exchange student at Sophia University as well as in 2015 when I did my masters degree.
I am fluent in English and don't really have a strong accent at all, which should make speaking with me quite easy.

I'm looking forward to meeting you and help you to improve your language skills. I am open to meet around my area at a coffee shop for example as well as somewhere around Tokyo closer to your area or online via Skype, Zoom etc.
Let me know if you have any questions. :)

About Me

(German below) Hey - my name is Lisa and I am originally from a city close to Düsseldorf and Köln (Cologne) in Germany. I have been to Japan multiple times as a tourist and also as a student. At the moment I live in Japan permanently and used to work here for more than 2 years. However since I want to improve my poor Japanese skills, I decided to join a langauge school from April.

In my free time I love to travel, explore new places and do a lot of sports - well thats also because I love to eat! And Japan has a great variety of food and especially desserts.

Hallo - mein Name ist Lisa und ich komme aus einer Stadt in der Nähe von Düsseldorf und Köln. Ich war schon oft in Japan - sei es als Tourist oder als Student. Aktuell lebe ich in Japan seit fast 3 Jahren, von denen ich über 2 Jahre hier gearbeitet habe. Seit April bin ich allerdings selber wieder Student, da ich meine geringen Japanischkenntnisse verbessern möchte.

In meiner Freizeit liebe ich es zu reisen, neue Orte zu erkunden und mache gerne viel Sport - das liegt allerdings auch daran, da ich gerne sehr viel esse! Vor allem Süßes. Und Japan hat "leider" zu viele tolle Restaurants und Desserts!

Education

I did my Bachelors both in Germany and Japan in - Social Sciences focusing on Politics and Sociology as well as Business Administration.
I finished my Masters in Japan in Human Resource Management.

Experience / Qualifications

I do not own any offical certificates, however I used to teach German/English before when I used to study and live in Japan both in 2012 and 2015.

Nataliia
English
All of us were studying English at schools and universities. However, in some period of time we find out that we forgot almost everything we knew before. Someone can read and write yet, but afraid of speaking. Someone feel comfortable with books and TV, but get lost when he meet foreigners. Someone need English for Business. Someone doesn't understand these "amazing" English Tenses. Of course, there are people who have never learnt English and want to start from the very beginning. I can show you, that English language is not an invincible monster, and learning of the second foreing language is extremly interesting and useful process. During the lessons we will use work materials, listen audio, read books and periodicals, watch movies and speak, speak, speak...

Marianne
French and English tutoring - beginners to advanced level
Hi, nice to meet you. My name is Marianne and I come from France. I speak French English and German fluently and a bit of Japanese. I would love to teach you French or English ! We can just use oral conversation, or learn grammar and conjugation through enjoyable exercises, for instance using songs, movies, books, poetry ... It's up to you and what makes you feel comfortable, have fun, and seems the most efficient to you according to your goals. I can teach you both languages from the basics. It's completely fine if you don't speak those at all to start with. I can also help with translating the basics to Japanese if needed. I hope to see you soon ! はじめまして。 マリアンです。22歳です。フランスから来ました。 フランス語と英語とドイツ語が話せます。日本語が少し話せます。今勉強していますから。 私の趣味は縫うことです。 よろしくおねがいします!

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.
