Let's discover the Japanese language!
Nice to meet you!
My name is Asuka, I am half Japanese and half German.
I was born and raised in Hamburg where I received my secondary education in a German and a Japanese school.
After my graduation I have been working as a interpreter and translator for events as well as for different agencies and companies.
As a language teacher I have been giving private classes to learn speaking, reading and writing.
My approach is to teach useful words/phrases and to get a feeling for the language.
I am happy to share my enthusiasm for languages with you :)

I have been living in Switzerland for 14 years, where I work as a teacher and translator. I am a native Italian speaker. I obtained the federal qualification for teaching adults and also completed a Master's degree in teaching Italian as a foreign language at the Università Cattolica of Milan. I am a teacher of Italian at middle schools in Zurich and also work at language schools. I am a CELI certification examiner.
Learning a new language can be fun! I use a pragmatic, inductive and communicative approach so I can speak without fear. I have a deep knowledge of Italian and German grammar. I also work with authentic materials, comics and videos. Learn Italian also through lessons on art, culture and food and wine! For business Italian courses, I can also devote lessons inherent to the relevant terminology.

Hey,
My name is Ina, I'm a Norwegian who grew up abroad and has lived in the United Kingdom for the last 5 years.
Completing my International Baccalaureate at an international school in Taiwan, I studied Film and Television at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland.

I am TEFL certified, and have spent my last year working in the Scottish TV industry, working on programmes for channels like the BBC and Channel 4.
I would love to help you practice conversation skills, basic grammar and improve your confidence in expressing yourself in English!
Looking forward to working with you,

Hi, Mi name is Paul. I'm a certified (TEFL, ELE) teacher with over 10 years of experience in language teaching. I am actually teaching business clients and individuals.
I always try to keep the classes informal and relaxed. It's important that the students like the class, and that they feel comfortable. That results in progress, and that's exactly what we want.
The focus is on conversation (so pronunciation!) and understanding but also reading and writing are important to improve active vocabulary.
Now grammar is also important to understand the structure of a language, but I only touch grammar when needed, so that depends a lot on the level (from A1 to C2).
For lower-level students who still need some native language in class, I speak fluently Spanish, Dutch and some German and French.
The first class is free of charge, so just try it! I'm sure you'll like it.

I am originally from Reggio Emilia and I have a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Italian, English and German. Both degrees were obtained at the University of Applied Sciences ZHAW in Winterthur (in 2014 and 2016). For 12 years, I have been teaching Italian privately and tutoring adults and children of different nationalities (including Italians), from a beginner to an academic level. From a linguistic point of view, my strengths are an in-depth knowledge of Italian grammar plus "verbal creativity" (use of synonyms, different levels of connotation and register, specialized languages, ...).
My aim is to help my students reach their goals, whatever it might be. I don't insist too much on the achievement of certain levels (A/B/C), but I focus on the needs and preferences of each individual, which can range in any direction (from writing without mistakes to widening your vocabulary to getting by on holiday in Italy to understanding the logic behind a language ...). To do this, I set a first meeting exclusively to understand language level, difficulties, objectives, and deadlines of the person in front of me. This is the starting point to create a customized programme. This way, nobody will get bored: my student will play an active role in the learning process, having fun and falling more and more in love with the bella lingua :-)
My teaching techniques include an "entry test" to understand the student's linguistic "weaknesses", training in listening, reading, speaking, and writing and a "final test" to check improvements and learning pace. I select teaching materials with the students so that they are based on students preferences. These teaching materials might include translations, dictation exercises, dialogues, songs, videos (taken also from YouTube, Instagram, FB...), reading books and magazines. I am available for both live and online lessons.
