About Me

I studied calligraphy in Japan for 10 years.
Doing calligraphy in my busy days makes me feel relaxed.

I studied Japanese culture and European culture at university.
I signed up because I wanted to teach calligraphy while traveling around Europe, which I love.
I can also teach various Japanese cultures. Cooking, origami, language, etc.

Education

I went to university in Japan for four years.
I majored in comparative culture and was able to gain a deeper understanding of Japanese culture.
In addition, by conducting comparative research on the cultures of Japan and Europe, I have come to understand the advantages and similarities between the two cultures.

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.

I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

With six years of experience teaching Chinese performance to children and adults, my approach is dynamic and performance-based, incorporating character acting. I believe making language learning enjoyable and INTERACTIVE sets me apart.

The course curriculum encompasses recitation, monologue DRAMA, Mandarin POP music, and FOLK songs. It welcomes individuals with an interest in Chinese culture, spanning from traditional philosophy like Taoism to contemporary pop culture.

Whether you're a beginner or advanced learner, I will assist you in confidently expressing yourself in Chinese and enhancing your understanding of China!

Let’s learn in a relaxed and enjoyable setting, perhaps over a cup of coffee at a café.

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!

A course to learn Spanish based on documents from Hispanic and Latin American culture (films, music, literature, comics). A dynamic course, at your own pace. Immerse yourself in the world of Spanish: its culture, its stories, its musical richness.
