Let's study Japanese (Japanese) efficiently with Amazon best seller author & a friend of super famous J-POP musicians!

I passed the Japanese teaching test and taught 1000 lessons and have 100 students over the world (including all platforms) so you can have a professional lesson at a reasonable price and we can focus on your personal goal from beginners to fluent speakers.
My favorite topics to chat about are J-POP/Rock. I even used to hang out with super famous musicians .I can't tell who they are for their privacy, but we can talk about Japanese music, backstage and Japanese music industry.

I also translate subtitles for movies.

For beginners, I use teaching materials and focus on the Genki textbook. But I can customize the lesson without it.
For JLPT I use a JLPT textbook. I published a book about how to get high scores on exams using only short-term study and it's a best seller on Amazon so I certainly know plenty of tips. Let's study efficiently together!

For students who finished Genki-->We will start another textbook for intermediate degrees

Also, I'm studying Java programming, so I am teaching programming Japanese terms to students.
so my lesson helps you to work with Japanese programmers!

Me as a Teacher
I know many Japanese learners have headaches for particles like the difference between 'が' and 'は', 'に'and 'で', 自動詞(はいる)and 他動詞(いれる). As a professional teacher, I am willing to explain and practice with you.


The style chart of my lesson is like below.
My Lessons & Teaching Style
Complete beginner:
--->Yes-->Start with the easiest letter.We can order foods in the end of the lesson. (talk about a textbook for next lessons)
---->Yes, but personal purpose&goal--->Let's target to it!

Not a complete beginner:
-->Students who finished Genki-->We will start another textbook for intermediate degrees
-->For travel to JP-->Role play for a variety of travel situations
-->JLPT -->N1/N2/N3 -->Practicing the exam & discussion based on each level
-->JLPT -->N4/N5 -->Practicing the exam & conversation based on each level
-->Can do daily conversations-->Choose a topic from a list and conversation
-->Still learning daily conversations-->Genki textbook and actual conversation based on it(I recommend the textbook but tell me if it's difficult. I can customize the lesson.

*I basically teach online but I also teach once a week at library in Rotterdam. Please contact me about the availability.
Extra information
I also offer intensive courses.

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 ^)

The goal of this class is to achieve JLPT N1. This is for those who already obtain N2 or who have the knowledge equivalent to N2.

After achieving N2, maybe you lost your goal and don't know what to do or what to aim at. Maybe, N1 is on of your option. Achieving N1 is for sure a tough and rough way to go, but that is why I'm here!

Hello! I’m Ryohei, a native Japanese speaker and tutor from Japan.

I can teach a wide range of topics, from basic Japanese characters, vocabulary, and grammar to more advanced and business-level Japanese. Whether you are just starting to learn Japanese or want to improve your existing skills, I will adjust my lessons to your level and learning goals.

As I was born and raised in Japan, I can teach not only correct written Japanese, but also natural and colloquial Japanese used in everyday conversations. I can also explain differences between textbook Japanese and the expressions that Japanese people actually use in real life.

Have you ever wondered why a character in an anime or movie says something in a particular way, or why they behave in a certain manner? I can explain these things while taking Japanese culture, customs, and communication styles into account. This will help you understand not only the language itself, but also the cultural background behind it.

I believe learning a language should be enjoyable and practical. Feel free to ask me any questions, and I’ll do my best to help you improve your Japanese step by step.

If you’re interested in learning Japanese with me, please feel free to send me a message! I look forward to meeting you and helping you enjoy learning Japanese!
