    Chinese and Japanese language proficiency teaching(简体中文,繁體中文,日本語)

    I have been teaching Chinese and Japanese for 5 years, during which I've honed my skills in language instruction and developed unique methods tailored to the intricacies of Asian scripts. My teaching approach encompasses not only linguistic fundamentals but also cultural nuances, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the languages. Through years of dedication and exploration, I've cultivated a deep appreciation for the richness and diversity of Asian languages, allowing me to impart knowledge with passion and precision.

    About Me

    Having lived in both China and Japan, I've immersed myself in the vibrant cultures of East Asia. Beyond language, I understand the intricacies of daily life in this region, where customs, traditions, and social norms shape the way people interact and thrive. My journey in language teaching extends beyond mere communication skills; it delves into the essence of how people coexist and flourish beneath the umbrella of a shared language. This unique perspective sets apart the allure of learning Asian languages from the European counterparts. As someone deeply connected to the fabric of East Asian life, I bring not just linguistic expertise but also cultural insights to my teaching approach, enriching the learning experience for my students.

    Education

    Graduating from Ryukoku University with a degree in International Communication.

    The Department of Ukrainian Language at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv chose to close in the second year because of the war.

    Experience / Qualifications

    The most fluent languages ​​I speak are Chinese, Japanese and English. I also speak some Ukrainian and German. Can understand some Russian.

    I first came into contact with language education when I was in Ukraine. I teach Chinese in an institution. This is where it all begins.

    Chiaki
    Japanese Lessons - Born in Tokyo, I have a Master's degree in Language Education and am certified in Japanese language teaching
    Hello!🍡 My name is Chiaki (千明 in Japanese, it means "a thousand lights") and I am a Japanese teacher in Lausanne. Passionate about foreign languages and cultures, I studied Japanese teaching at university and obtained a master's degree in language teaching. I truly believe that a good teacher is also a learner. Through my own experiences with languages like English, German, Arabic, Italian, Korean, and French, I have come to understand the challenges, doubts, and joys that come with diving into a new language. For me, learning a language is more than just words. It’s a way to see the world through a new lens, to understand different cultures, and to build bridges between people. I believe that this knowledge can break down barriers and foster a more peaceful world. 🕊️ As a Japanese teacher, my goal is to offer my students the chance to discover the world through the “Japanese prism”🌈 If you dream of learning Japanese, I would be happy to accompany you :)
