Japanese with a former beginner, certified teacher
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
No, Japanese is not an exotic language or one reserved for manga fans, and impossible to really master... even for French speakers! As proof, here I am after several years of learning, diversifying my language course offering. After Dutch, German, English and Russian, I am adding Japanese to my range.○ I teach full-time; it’s not a hobby ○ Good news: for me, learning is not limited to long lists of vocabulary. My classes take place in a relaxed and caring atmosphere, I am in opposition to the strict-rigid framework of some schools
In class, we combine learning grammar (a crucial and comforting foundation for beginners) with numerous practical exercises and role-playing exercises so that the student can manage on their own in the real world.
Above all, I transform language into a kind of game/code that must be deciphered. It is then enough to "grasp" the logic... It is "enough" of course - but that is my job - I will take care of it!
I have a myriad of paper materials but I prefer PowerPoints and other fun, interactive tools projected on my TV/computer screen when the course is online.
➤ Theory, exercises, supports provided free of charge with our courses
✦ We are a team, get involved; write to me outside of class ✦
■ By email, text message, or WhatsApp: for your questions, clarifications, requests between classes
■ My courses are tax deductible, I issue invoices.
I like to differentiate myself from those distant teachers who don't make you want to learn.

Sophie is above all a person who is passionate about the languages she teaches. She offers courses that adapt to your needs and demonstrates a lot of pedagogy in her courses.
Furthermore, she is very friendly and puts you at ease straight away, which means you don't feel like you're back at school.
I therefore highly recommend to anyone who would like to learn English or Russian to take lessons with Sophie

Dear future students/parents of students: Dutch is indeed poorly taught in French-speaking schools.
But, yes, we can learn to appreciate it (Or stop being afraid of it?)
My classes are often punctuated with laughter, I am not a fan of the strict-rigid atmosphere of some schools. Nevertheless, I make it a point of honor to ensure that this benevolence does not affect the learning and progress of the student.
✦ Effective and pragmatic teaching technique ✦
I combine learning grammar (essential for beginners) with numerous practical exercises and role-playing situations to ensure that the student will be able to cope in the real world.
Above all, I transform language into a kind of game/code that must be deciphered. It is then enough to "grasp" the logic
I have a plethora of paper materials but work mainly using PowerPoints and other fun and interactive tools projected on my TV/computer screen when the course is held online.

I like to differentiate myself from those distant teachers who don't make you want to learn.
Maybe our lessons will be the highlight of your day?
Being a student myself, I have the advantage of understanding the student.
I think that studying a language is not only about learning vocabulary lists.
I have been teaching for 7 years, and have already helped around fifty students of different ages.
My Erasmus in Manchester in a situation of total bilingualism has enriched the way I teach and I can pride myself on guaranteeing a fast and pleasant progression! ;)
-> NOBODY has "no gift" for languages, the key is just to let you guide.

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.

Highly Experienced Native Vietnamese Tutor with a Proven Track RecordSpeak Vietnamese Fluently in Just 2 Months!
I am passionate about helping learners not only master Vietnamese but also gain a deeper understanding of Vietnamese culture. I will guide you to pronounce naturally like a native speaker and communicate confidently in any situation.
The biggest challenge for Vietnamese learners is pronunciation and addressing people correctly. With six tones and a complex system of pronouns that change based on formality, age, gender, and family relationships, it can feel overwhelming. But don’t worry! I’ll guide you through it and help you gain confidence from the very first lesson!
Whether you're a student, a professional, living with Vietnamese people, or have Vietnamese friends or colleagues, I’m here to support you. I always tailor my teaching approach to keep you motivated, engaged, and increasingly confident in using Vietnamese. With just 2 months of learning with me, you'll be able to communicate confidently!

Chats about Japan and basic Japanese conversationKonnichiwa!
I'm married to a Japanese man, I have lived in Japan in Kamakura near Tokyo for over 30 years.
I have a few free hours and if you want to chat and exchange about culture, cuisine, life, or even learn Japanese
contact me to make an appointment (because I work too!)
In a very friendly and unpretentious spirit!
A little clarification, I'm not interested in manga or cosplay.

Online chit-chat practice with native Japanese tutorThis online conversation class is for those who would like to try often and talk more. You are the main person in my class, so please let me know what you would like to talk about, your hobbies that make you stay up, your future job hunting in Japan, everyday life, etc. I am all ears! Shall we 挑戦?
Sachiko
Japanese Lessons with Sachi, I am an experienced Japanese teacherI enjoy cooking, painting, traveling, reading, and yoga. My lessons are extremely well planned and organized so there’s no time wasted and I enjoy forming a trusting relationship with my students. When students trust their teacher they feel free to ask questions and know that it’s okay to ask the same question repeatedly until they fully understand.
Another important feature of my lessons is the quality of my follow-up reviews. My reviews are meticulous, complete with footnotes that offer supplementary information. Because of my detailed feedback students not only learn during my lesson, but after it as well. I’m so happy to know that some of my students print out my reviews and keep them in a folder for self-study!
From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank all of my students I’ve met during my teaching career. They always make me laugh, feel warm inside, and motivate me to become a better teacher. Learning is a long journey so let’s have fun together and make it worth our time! I am looking forward to getting to know you!

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! 🌸
