Practice Japanese with a native speaker – online or in-person private lessons in Helsinki

Easy peasy Japanesey! こんにちは(Konnichiwa)!!! A native Japanese tutor is here. Let me support your language journey with my hardest!! My lessons will be provided in English and Japanese! First of all, I truly appreciate and respect your decision to learn Japanese—one of the most challenging languages to master. Currently, I am also learning Arabic and French myself, so I completely understand how tough it is to learn new languages from the start, and there’s no easy way to acquire a new language. That’s why I’d love to help you with mine, which happens to be one of the hardest!

👋 About Me Hi! I’m Jennifer Mebae, a Japanese teacher with over 5 years of experience teaching private students, company clients, and small groups (up to 9 people). I’ve helped many learners successfully pass JLPT N5, N4, and N3. 🌍 Multilingual Support As someone who is half Japanese and half Swiss, I teach with a deep understanding of both language and culture. I can explain Japanese using English, German, French, Portuguese, and a bit of Italian—making learning more comfortable and flexible for you. 🎌 Culture & Values In my lessons, you won’t just learn the language—you’ll also discover the culture, traditions, and values behind it. From daily etiquette to deeper ways of thinking, I love helping students connect with the real spirit of Japan. 🌱 Your Progress Matters I customize each lesson to fit your goals and learning style. The best part of teaching for me is seeing your confidence grow as you improve. よろしくお願いいたします。🌸

Mes cours tournent en grande partie autour d'un manuel qui est à se procurer extérieurement mais ma priorité est de m'adapter aux envies de l'élève. Cela se déroule généralement les dimanches mais les horaires peuvent varier en fonction des disponibilités de l'élève et des miennes. J'offre également la possibilité d'assister au cours par deux, dans le cas où des ami(e)s souhaiteraient y participer ensemble.

Konnichiwa!こ ん に ち は! Are you going to Japan? Do you like Mangas? The culture and the Japanese language attract you but you never dared to start? On the contrary, you already have a good foundation and want to take the JLPT exam? Or maybe you have to speak Japanese at work? My courses are adaptable according to your level and your objectives: - Discovery of culture and language (great beginners and false beginners) - Improvement to prepare JLPT 1-5 exams - Professional needs We can work writing and speaking, with a method (Japan Foundation) or any other desired medium. Whatever your motivation and level, Maki Sensei is here to help! (^ O ^)

Konnichiwa (Hello), I am Japanese native from Osaka and currently living in Geneva, Switzerland. I teach at Japanese School in Geneva and also offer private Japanese lessons from a complete beginner including children to an advanced learner. After understanding each learner's level, interest and goal, I will offer a main textbook and overview of the course plan. I will be using balanced approach that will improve listening, speaking, reading, and writing through proven textbooks, exercises and weigh on the practical conversations. For JLPT preparation, I will offer lessons with the text suitable for the target level across required skills. I can teach in Japanese or English fluently and in French to a limited extent. I offer my lessons online, face to face at my place or near my place. All my students are repeated students who enjoy engaging and interactive atmosphere. I hope to see you soon in my lesson!

I am a Japanese woman who was born and raised in Osaka Japan. I studied cross-cultural communication at a university in Tokyo and followed a Japanese language teacher education program established by the Japanese government. These courses are intended for people who want to learn Japanese but also Japanese culture. Are you passionate about manga or cooking? Or do you want to chat with your Japanese or Japanese friends? Otherwise you want to travel or work in Japan? (Learn professional and important codes for all companies, officers and employees.) I would happily teach you the Japanese and Japanese culture you need :)

Vous souhaitez apprendre le japonais ? Je propose des cours spécialement conçus pour les débutants complets – aucune connaissance préalable n'est nécessaire ! Dans mes cours, vous apprendrez les bases de la langue japonaise écrite : les hiragana, katakana, ainsi que les premières notions de grammaire. Nous mettrons tout cela en pratique grâce à des conversations simples et des lectures de phrases. Pas de stress ! Nous avancerons à votre rythme, et vous n'aurez jamais à aborder des notions complexes sans avoir bien maîtrisé les bases. L'objectif est de vous enseigner sans pression, avec plaisir et curiosité. Ayant une spécialité en Arts, je serais ravie de vous transmettre également mes connaissances en art traditionnel japonais, ajoutant une dimension culturelle unique à votre apprentissage de la langue. N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour plus d’informations ou pour convenir d’un premier cours !

For the Portuguese course: we will see basic grammar, vocabulary and conjugation for the English course: we will see the same thing as for the Portuguese course (grammar, vocabulary and basic conjugation) and for the Japanese course: I would learn the basics that I studied at university

I have been a French student in Japan for 2 years now at APU University (OITA Prefecture)!! I also hold the N2, Japanese certification. I offer introductory and advanced Japanese language training, which is essential for traveling and communicating with Japanese people. Upon request, I can also assist with academic Japanese language training, which can be used for university studies in Japan. I prefer speaking and could, upon request, give you the opportunity to chat with some of my Japanese friends to familiarize you with the different accents and the Japanese language. I also have Japanese language textbooks provided by the university that I will refer to if needed. Being a big fan of manga and anime myself, I plan to use them to further the course!! Typical procedure: - discussion about everyday life - introduction of new words and KANJI/KANA - written and oral practice - introduction to a new grammar and putting it into practice - discussion and analysis of manga/anime or other media This course is aimed at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. よろしくお願いします!!

My name is Mika. I have over 10 years of experience as a Japanese teacher. I teach Japanese at various levels, from beginner to business. I also have extensive teaching experience in language schools, where I have participated in the creation of course curricula. Thanks to this experience, I can create a program tailored to your goals. My specialty is beginner level! I can teach with any textbook, but I love teaching with GENKI! But... video lessons are a little stressful, aren't they!? How does it work...? Are the teachers strict? Is it possible to learn Japanese without going to school...? Don't worry!! Grab a drink, sit down, and let me do it ;) I have taught many students and I am currently studying French because I live in France now, so I can understand your feeling. ★Important★ Remember these 3 things when you study: 1) a notebook and a pen 2) a drink 3) and your smile :) And here I am! I'm waiting in front of the computer! Let's study together!

Stage d’été en juillet et août possible. D’origine japonaise, résidant en pays francophones depuis plus de 35 ans, je connais très bien toutes les subtilités de ces deux langues et de leurs cultures. Diplômée dans l'enseignement du japonais par l’État japonais, et expérimentée dans l’enseignement supérieur (école de commerce), dans des associations et des entreprises, j’enseigne ma langue maternelle depuis 2011 en Essonne où j’habite, après avoir consacré de très nombreuses années à l’éducation japonaise de mes enfants bilingues et biculturels. Les cours par webcam fonctionnent très bien depuis le confinement. Je propose des cours, allant de l'initiation à l'approfondissement, à tous les âges à partir de 9/10 ans. Cours sur mesure, adaptés à des besoins de l’élève. Les débutants complets sont les bienvenus, ainsi que les groupes de 2/3 personnes.

Apprentissage de l'écriture sous forme de travaux dirigés. Initiation à la culture. Entraînement en phonétique. C’est la première rencontre auditive qui laissera des traces définitives, les premières heures sont très importantes du point de vue phonétique et syntaxique.
