About Me

I have 10 years of Japanese studying experience, I passed JLPT N1 in 2017. From 2018-2022 I lived in Tokyo for bachelor's study. And now I started my new life in the Netherlands, and I want to keep speaking Japanese.

JLPT tests are hard for European language speakers. Well, I believe languages should be means but not goals (the goal should be mobility and communication!), and I don't want you to be discouraged. Let's make life easier and crash these exams!

Vuoi parlare l'italiano? Italiano con Rob per tutti
Ciao, my name is Roberto :) 
I graduated in Political and Economic Science at the University of Milan. After working for a year for an American company in Milan, I moved to Australia, where I have worked, studied and traveled for two years.
It has been an incredible experience! I had the opportunity of visiting beautiful places, discovering so many different cultures and developed myself from a personal and professional point of view.
Since two years, I have been living in Haarlem - a wonderful city close to Amsterdam - and to the coast 🌊 - in the Netherlands. I love teaching and helping people to find out more about Italian culture, history, and arts. I would love to use all the modern techniques of teaching that I learned and practiced them with you. Teaching is an extraordinary passion! Parliamo italiano!
