Online Japanese "GANBARU" class with native Japanese tutorWelcome to my class! Please tell me what you aim with your Japanese study, for education, for JLPT, for traveling. Also tell me how you have studied Japanese. I carefully think which method and materials would work best for you. My class is customized for you and I am not the type of tutor who uses same materials for anyone. Before class time I devote preparing class for you and after class I will dedicate extra time for review to make your next class to be better. I know how to study Japanese and guide you to what you aim for (please take a look at my profile). I expect you to work hard, really hard, not only during class but before and after as well. I might ask you do homework to strengthen what needs extra practice. If you have a question that you noticed after class, contact me. Once you decide to take my classes, please trust me, study very hard for what you dream to get and make great effort for yourself. I have got your back!

Easy peasy Japanesey! Private lessons for the Japanese language!Easy peasy Japanesey! こんにちは(Konnichiwa)!!! A native Japanese tutor is here. Let me support your language journey with my hardest!! My lessons will be provided in English and Japanese!
First of all, I truly appreciate and respect your decision to learn Japanese—one of the most challenging languages to master.
Currently, I am also learning Arabic and French myself, so I completely understand how tough it is to learn new languages from the start, and there's no easy way to acquire a new language. That's why I'd love to help you with mine, which happens to be one of the hardest!

Japanese lesson with a native speaker in Den Haag or onlineI’m from Hiroshima, Japan! I live in Den Haag. We can practice talking Japanese in person or online.
I am 30 years old and from Hiroshima Prefecture. I have been living in the Netherlands for two years. While living in the Netherlands, I think it can be difficult to find opportunities to practice Japanese, but I would love to create opportunities for you to practice and improve your Japanese skills.

Japanese Lessons - Born in Tokyo, I have a Master's degree in Language Education and am certified in Japanese language teachingA passionate teacher of Japanese (my native language), I offer personalized, interactive courses adapted to all levels.
🍡 Build your grammar foundations
My comprehensive courses are based on books such as Minna no Nihongo or Irodori, as well as my own materials (slideshows, personalized documents). We approach vocabulary, grammar, conversation and listening in a progressive and interactive way.
Are you a beginner? No worries, we will work from the basics using French or English to help you. If you already have some knowledge, we will choose together the grammar points on which you will focus to progress effectively :)
🍡 Advanced Reading and Listening
For learners who already have a solid foundation, these courses help strengthen your reading and listening skills. If you have texts or content that you would like to explore, we will use them in class. Otherwise, I will provide you with resources adapted to your level and interests!
🍡 JLPT exam preparation
Prepare effectively for the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test), a recognized exam that validates your level of Japanese. Whether it's to boost your chances for studies, a job or simply to challenge yourself, my courses will guide you with targeted exercises and strategies adapted to your level.
In the first lesson, we will discuss in Japanese/French/English to assess your level of Japanese, your expectations for the Japanese course, as well as the books we will use.
Each one-hour lesson takes place online or at my home in Prilly.
Organize your classes at your own pace: once a week, every two weeks, or even in intensive sessions lasting several hours!
I look forward to supporting you in your learning of Japanese, and sharing my culture with you! 🌸

- 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.
