WHO AM I
╰══• ೋ•✧๑♡๑✧•ೋ ೋ•✧═╯

My name is Lizzie, born in 1991 in Toulouse. Graduated with a degree in Japanese Language, Literature and Civilization, I have been giving private lessons since 2018. I went to travel to Japan for a total of 1 and a half years, from 2015 to 2017. I return to Japan every 2 years or so.

When I returned to France, I decided to become a private Japanese teacher, specializing in teaching beginners. My classes are intended for people who are starting from scratch or who already have some background and who wish to obtain a JLPT N5 or N4 level.

I want to share my passion, tell you anecdotes and teach you to speak and write this language!

PRIVATE LESSONS
╰══• ೋ•✧๑♡๑✧•ೋ ೋ•✧═╯

My courses are tailored to you. Long-term learning? Express? Without learning kana? Leaving for Japan soon? Choose the training that suits you, at your own pace!

I prefer to have a little discussion with the student before starting, to know their level, their pace, their preferences, their hobbies, their passions etc... My lessons will be based on my past experiences in Japan, what I was taught and my own books. All the exercises are adapted to each of you.
We will study together oral comprehension, writing, reading, translations...

The courses will be held in person or remotely (for all of France).

No travel, no group lessons (except for pairs of 2), no children under 16.


For any other information, do not hesitate to contact me!
Yours,
Lizzie

About Me
My name is Lizzie, I live in Toulouse since always and I have two adorable cats who live with me!
I am passionate about travel, arts of all kinds, music, language meetings and a lot of other things!
My thing is Japan. Since I discovered Japanese prints when I was studying in college, I fell in love with this country! His language, his culture, his art!
Education
I got my bachelor 's degree in 2009. Then I went to the University of Toulouse le Mirail from 2010 to 2013, about a degree in visual arts where I got my DEUG.
Experience / Qualifications
I lived 1 / 2year in Japan, from 2015 to 2017. When I arrived in Japan I did not speak a word of Japanese, then I met the good people, locals who did not speak a word of French nor English, and two French expatriates who helped me a lot! Thanks to them and my personal efforts, very eager to learn by myself, in about a year I reached a level that allowed me to discuss almost normally with anyone!

Student in master 1, having made a year of exchange in Japan, I suggest you to discover the Japanese language through different media. Each course is individualized to maximize student progress.
If you are interested in Japanese culture, and want to learn an atypical language, do not hesitate!

Long-time Japanese, I offer all those interested in Japanese culture or who prepare a trip for Japanese language and civilization courses to discover or rediscover a culture that is sometimes difficult to assimilate.

I adapt my pedagogy according to the student and his motivations.

I propose several modules each dedicated to the learning of the language and its writing to a further development for those who wish to focus on a specific area (Ex: political or economic vocabulary).

Beginning, you will learn to speak, but also write in hiragana, katakana and with some kanji. At the intermediate level, I offer more advanced training focused on grammar.

Graduated with a bachelor's degree in Japanese, I offer an apprenticeship that will allow you to quickly acquire solid foundations and speak fluent Japanese and useful in everyday life.
Having studied Japanese myself in high school and university using classical methods, I realized once in Japan that the language I had learned was sometimes far from the reality of that used in the everyday life!
So I created my own course materials myself to teach my students more natural Japanese. The lessons are written by me and I use various supports for the exercises.

I can of course adapt my lessons according to your level, beginner or more advanced, and to your needs and objectives, whether academic, professional or personal.
For example, I can help you with a trip, a professional project, an exam (bac or partial) or a JLPT type competition.

My journey:
After a literary baccalaureate with Japanese option and a month-long language internship in Kyoto, I obtained a Japanese LLCER license with honors at Paris 7 Diderot University. I studied the language but also the culture, literature and Japanese history.
During my studies I gave support courses to undergraduate students, as well as beginner level courses.
I then spent 6 months at the University of Ochanomizu in Tokyo, where I had the opportunity to give French lessons to Japanese students.
I took the JLPT N2 in 2019, which corresponds to a C1 level.

I am flexible and available at times that suit you, lessons can be done at my home or yours according to your preference. I offer a reduced rate for group lessons.
Feel free to contact me for more information!

Asuka
Hello. I’m Asuka, a native Japanese speaker. I’m currently living in the Toulouse city centre. I’m not a professional language teacher but I’m interested in the career path as a Japanese teacher.

When I was living in Tokyo, I met many Japanese learner. They work hard on the learning, they love Japanese culture. Simply, I was impressed by their enthusiasm. At the same time, that made me think that I’d love to support them as a Japanese who was born and raised in Japan, who is also as very curious about foreign matters as they are.

My lesson will be casual. I’m thinking of free talk style in Japanese and English. To distinct it from just a language exchange, I’ll make some efforts. Such as, I’ll try to talk easy Japanese and let you talk more than me, corrections can be happened, questions are always welcome, and if you have materials you want to use during a lesson, I’ll accept them of course! If you prefer to focus on grammar, reading rather than just listening and talking, that will work too! I can flexibly make adjustments for lessons.

Don’t worry even if you’re a complete beginner. I truly respect your curiosity and support you. If you’re an intermediate learner, you might be struggling. It’s okay, every small effort is leading you to the next level! Advanced learners might be tackling with 敬語. Don’t worry even Japanese people make mistakes. Let’s continue to learn it with fun!

Don’t hesitate to contact me. I’m looking forward to seeing you!
よろしくお願いします!

Foreign languages aren't just useful tools for making international friends; they're also a way to integrate and discover new cultures. As a bilingual native speaker, I know that learning a language requires a lot of work, both in the language you study and in the one you're born speaking. Between untranslatable vocabulary, new grammatical concepts, and new sounds to produce, there are plenty of exciting aspects to the art of knowing how to speak a language.

Passionate about international affairs and multilingual, I speak French fluently, Japanese since birth (born and raised in Japan), Spanish at intermediate level +, and English at B2 level. I'm a recent beginner in Korean but I already know a little of its grammar ^^
I offer online or face-to-face courses in Toulouse, focusing on pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary using explanatory diagrams with my graphics tablet, and exercises that I will propose during the courses.
