Japanese Class from a native Japanese speaker living in Utrecht!

Japanese language, Japanese culture, anime etc has been increasingly popular in many countries worldwide lately. Japanese is a difficult yet very beautiful and interesting language to learn. If you would like to learn Japanese, and learn about the life in Japan in general, you came to the right place! I give fun easy going lessons by mostly encouraging you to speak, because taking it into practice and talking is the quickest way to learn! It's a safe non judgemental space to make mistakes as much as you have to!

About Me

Hello!
My name is Alethea, and I am a violinist based in Utrecht. I have studied under Theodora Geraets, and Chris Duindam at Utrecht Conservatory. I have been teaching since 2019, and currently taking courses in the art of teaching. I love to help people progress, to not only teach but learn from each student. I believe each student is unique and has different needs in regard of methods and approach of lesson. Last but not least, I hope to be a teacher that would make the student leave the lesson with more motivation, encouragement and smile on their face:)

Education

I started Violin at the age of 7. I have studied with Yuuko Araki in Tokyo Japan. At the age of 17 I started studying at The Royal Conservatory of The Hague under Theodora Geraets. Now I am taking Bachelor Degree in Classical Violin at Utrecht Conservatory under Chris Duindam. I am also a member of National Youth Orchestra of the Netherlands, and UYO Orchestra.

Experience / Qualifications

Excellent teacher!!
I started taking violin lessons at the age of 7. After years of training, I am currently continuing my violin studies at Utrecht Conservatory. I have also attended music theory classes for 6 years because it is very useful to have some knowledge of it when playing any instrument. If you would like, I would be more than happy to share some knowledge of music theory along with the violin lessons. Lessons are private and not in groups.

Send a message explaining your needs and Alethea will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"

Kokugo - Japanese as Heritage Language for Native/Multilingual Children
This is individual Japanese/Japanese language instruction for primary and secondary school students whose native language is Japanese or who are growing up in a bilingual environment. By reading aloud a variety of texts and writing compositions, students will gradually improve their Japanese skills. ・Learning programs adapted to each level, objective and environment ・Those who want to improve their Japanese skills in a bilingual environment ・Those who wish to take entrance exams or pursue higher education after returning to Japan Living outside of Japan, knowing the world of languages other than Japanese, and knowing the language of Japan, which is far from Europe, all have the potential to broaden one's horizons and the world. It is an irreplaceable experience. I would like to use my experience living in Europe as a child and my university studies as a returnee in Japan, and help them learn Japanese together so that they can develop Japanese as an important language for them.

Risa
Learn Japanese culture and language ! (Beginners/intermediate/Advanced)
Hello there! はじめまして! I am Risa from Tokyo, Japan. I have various experiences in teaching Japanese culture and language from children to adults in English and Spanish. I'm learning various languages as a non-native speaker, so I know how learning foreign languages can be challenging, but at the same time, so fun! :) The key to fluency is repetitive practices, from my experience. What is your purpose to learn Japanese culture and language? In the first session, let me know your specific needs and objectives so as we can take the best way to achieve these goals. Together we will practice the diverse proficiency skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking). The class will be semi-structured and flexible according to your needs and goals. Feel free to contact me!

Online Japanese "GANBARU" class with native Japanese tutor
Welcome 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!

Fun and Easy Japanese Speaking with a Native Speaker!
konnichiwa! Let's start learning the Japanese with me! I'd like to help you to learn the native conversation, vocabularies and grammar, and culture. Based on your interests or requests, I can customize the class for you. Let's start talking about the fun and easy topics with me! I'm Chisa, 22years old.

Akiko
Experienced Japanese tutor: beginners, business Japanese, JLPT
Let me share my passion for languages with you. I am a native Japanese speaker who has lived around the world. As an adult, I learned English and Spanish, and now I'm also studying Chinese and Russian. For beginners, I find it best to start by learning basic grammar and vocabulary. For intermediate level and above, it depends on your preference, we can focus on conversation or working on JLPT exam, read news articles together, etc. I have over 7 years of experience working for Japanese and American financial firms in Tokyo's financial district. Much of that experience involved verbal and written translation between senior Japanese and American business people. If you are starting a new job with a Japanese firm, or have a temporary posting in Japan, I can help you prepare with the language and skills necessary to succeed! - Over 6000 hours of experience giving Japanese lessons - Worked with kids, adults, business professionals - I use "Genki" or "Minna no Nihongo" for beginners, "Quartet" or "Tobira" for intermediate leaners, but most important part of our lesson is that I will make you speak, rather than I explain the grammar for 30minutes. - "So matome", "Shinkaizen Master" for JLPT preparation, In the trial lesson, we will refine your needs, have demo lesson to show you my lesson style.
