Saki - TokyoC$37

C$37Casual Japanese Conversation with Japanese University Student

Trusted teacher: Have you ever felt native Japanese sounds so different from Japanese you learn in a textbook? My lessons provide Japanese learners with an opportunity to learn and speak casual Japanese which native Japanese, especially young people use in everyday life. So, the lessons focus more on fluency than grammar which also help you to pronounce Japanese naturally. Any levels of Japanese learners are welcomed.

C$19Japanese you actually use! Learn real Japanese with native local uni student. Not a textbook-type teacher, practical, spontaneous, and fun!

Everyone from Beginners to advanced! Want to learn real casual Japanese from someone who actually uses it? Whether you’re casually curious or getting ready to go to Japan, I’m here to help — we can meet right here in Brno! I’m a natural at mixing Japanese while talking in English, so you’ll get used to it in no time! You can learn Japanese as if you are talking to a friend, or I can also be teacher-like if that’s more comfortable! If you are more advanced, and want to learn formal/business Japanese, of course! I can guide you the proper etiquette, manners, phrases(敬語), etc...since I have experiences working in 4 star hotels in Tokyo. If you are curious about other cases, feel free to contact me. I’m a Japanese university student currently living in Brno. I spent over 5 years in the U.S., so I can explain things clearly in English (IELTS 7.5), and I’m especially great at explaining how to pronounce and explaining grammar/culture from unique perspectives! — no confusing grammar talk unless you want it (no worries, I will be flexible!) If you’re planning to visit or study in Japan, I can help you feel confident before you go: from ordering food and asking for directions to cultural tips and everyday manners. I will provide you on how to actually survive and have a blast! If you’re just interested in the language or culture, we can keep it casual and fun — talking about anime, music, trends, or anything else you’re into. I focus on real-life Japanese — including slang, casual speech, and expressions that textbooks won’t teach you — especially those used by young people. Lessons are relaxed, flexible, and built around your pace, interests, and schedule. Let’s make learning Japanese something you look forward to!! ———more about myself——— Architecture: I’m an architecture student currently studying full degree in Brno, if you are interested in architecture I would love to talk!!! music: I absolutely looooove ONE OK ROCK!! I have been to their lives in Japan, and am going to one in Prague this year!! I also listen to Green Day, fall out boy, twenty one pilots, Ellegarden, radwimps, etc! I was a vocalist/ guitarist in 軽音部 (kei-on music club) while high school and love Karaoke! Anime: I love anime, and my all time favorite is Hunter x Hunter, Full metal Alchemist, JoJo’s Bizarre adventure, Death note, NANA, Ouran high school host club, and so many more I can’t choose!

Halu - Tokyo, JapanC$48

C$48Private Japanese lesson Tokyo(On line, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Machida)

Trusted teacher: Hi, My name is Haru and I have been teaching Japanese for 15 years now. I am currently teaching 7 students, all foreign nationals living here in Japan. Their Japanese language ability levels range from basic conversational ability all the way up to JLPT level 1. My lesson style is ‘fun but strict’! If you really want to improve your level of Japanese, please try my class! <Daily Conversation・Business Talk > Some people can read and understand Japanese, even very well, but their speaking ability is relatively low. This is often due to a lack of regular speaking opportunities! During a 1 on 1 lesson, you can be in a distraction-free environment and do not have to be nervous about making mistakes - I can give you immediate feedback and corrections! <Basic Program> From beginner up to JLPT N1 level, class activities are based on your specific needs. For beginners, we will usually begin by building the foundation of basic grammar. For upper-level students, we will begin by practicing ‘skills for description’ and ‘skills for the expression’. <JLPT> Every Japanese student has heard of ‘JLPT’ (Japanese Language Proficiency Tests) which are held in July and December from levels 5 up to 1. Some companies have specific requirements for these qualifications. I can teach you according to your desired level. <Custom Program> Do you want to try Japanese Cooking? You can learn practical Japanese whilst cooking traditional foods!

Sachiko - Greystones, IrelandC$75

C$75Japanese Lessons with Sachi, I am an experienced Japanese teacher

I 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!

Private lessons to learn Japanese culture and language (Hettange-Grande)

Maki

For a long time I had been looking for a Japanese teacher in Luxembourg for private lessons until I found Maki-sensei. Her teaching style is really meeting my needs: she is encouraging me to talk more in Japanese while working on my vocabulary and grammar. She is using a range of teaching materials, such as text books, audio clips, short movie-clips, and articles from web-sites, which makes her lessons very enjoyable and rewarding. After the lesson Maki-sensei provides me with a write-up with newly learned words and corrections. I am always looking forward to the next lesson and strongly recommend her for anybody wanting to learn Japanese or about Japanese culture.
