My approach is to establish a learning routine online and offline to create well-organised lessons aligned to clear learning goals.

After many years researching different Japanese textbooks and learning resources, I have accumulated enough experience to design my own content. This way, I will tailor and provide all the material you need for the classes, like slides, handouts, exercises, quizzes, videos, and after class, so you can keep practicing the language also offline.

My methodology is adult-oriented. For this reason, each meeting is 60 minutes long.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Japanese Language and Literature, and completed a Japanese Language Teacher Training and a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certification.

I am a well-organised professional, who values your time and effort, and will structure your learning path to solid foundations, so you can build confidence to communicate. Whether your motivation to learn Japanese is travelling, working, passing a test or watching anime, I can help you to get positive outcomes.

Vanessa is very attentive to your needs and interests because she customises a study plan that better fits you. Also, being a language learner herself, with a broad background in other languages, she understands the language learning struggles her students face. She shares a wide range of learning resources and motivates me to keep going, which makes learning Japanese easily accessible and enjoyable.

I highly recommend Vanessa for online Japanese tutoring. She is very committed to her classes, well-organised planning each lesson, and quick to manage possible online technical issues. Her learning materials are original and easy to understand. I feel very motivated because she is always encouraging me to speak more and keep engaging with Japanese culture between classes, by watching a movie, cooking a dish, listening to podcasts, etc.

It's been 2 years since I started my classes with Vanessa sensei and I'm impressed by how much I have been able to understand and speak in this period. She is very professional at planning and customising lessons, and knowledgeable about grammar and culture. She makes learning efficient and enjoyable at the same time. I'm always looking forward to the next class!
