    Private Japanese Lesson ― Conversation, Grammor, Reading comprehension, Writing, Academic Japanese

    Hello. My name is Emi. I am from Fukuoka, south of Japan, and currently live in Tokyo, and work at the office.
    I have a university degree in economics and have worked for over 20 years in several companies, building good relationships with colleagues and clients. In my mid-30s, I joined an art college and completed a master's degree in Art Studies. I am currently enrolled in a graduate program, writing my doctoral thesis on Spanish paintings. I also work as a university tutor helping students with their studies.

    Based on my experience, I can offer lessons for everyday life, business or office, academic contexts like university classes, and so on.
    The basic style of my lessons is mainly conversational, sharing and discussing experiences and knowledge on a variety of topics such as everyday events, work and study, cultural and scientific events, news articles, etc.
    The major goal is for you to master and be able to use expressions appropriate to the context and to be able to understand correctly what others say (what is written), and to convey your ideas and thoughts more effectively.
    To achieve this, I also focus on grammatical structures and patterns, if necessary. Learning about sentence structure will also help you to understand what the other person says (or writes) correctly.

    And I can also support those who want to enjoy essays or novels written in Japanese. Reading texts written by Japanese also gives you an insight into our culture and way of thinking and allows you to learn more vocabulary and expressions and how to use them effectively. If there’s a specific text you’d like to read, let me know.

    Lastly, lessons are conducted in Japanese, but I can also understand English, although not fluently, so you can use English if you have difficulty expressing yourself in Japanese. (I am also learning Spanish and can understand simple sentences). So, I hope you can relax and enjoy the lessons.

    Thank you for reading to the end.
    If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to help you improve your Japanese language skills and enjoy Japan and its unique culture!

    Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
    For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

    Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
    Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.
