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 ^)

On the other hand, BEMBA is dominant on the Copperbelt, Luapula, Muchinga and Northern province.Actually it's the second most spoken language after NYANJA.
Thirdly, TONGA is the widely spoken language in the Southern province of the country.

In my sessions, I use fun, interactive approach explaining concepts simply, using real-life examples, and adding conversation practices. For example, flashcards and games to make the class engaging and stress-free. I adapt to each student's pace, celebrate progress, and share Spanish culture through music, food, and traditions to make the language come alive. Homework will be use if I feel is needed for you to practice improving. This would not be a hard class just try your best to listen and will be really fast to learn!
