      Sumire sensei est une excellente professeure. Très patiente, ses cours sont très bien expliqués, je ne peux que recommander cette prof qui m'a aidé à débuter en japonais, ce que je n'aurais pas pu faire tout seul. Merci Sumire sensei !

      Sumire is an excellent Japanese teacher. She shows great patience and exemplary kindness. She makes learning Japanese exciting. I feel like I have made huge progress. In a very short time, I learned to communicate using simple sentences. She also taught me to read letters quickly. I highly recommend Sumire to anyone who wants to learn or deepen their knowledge of Japanese.

      Sumire-san is particularly caring, which instills confidence for the long journey that is learning Japanese. I started from scratch and I see progress session after session. A big thank you to her for her adaptability, gentleness, and kindness.

    Ce cours est recommandé pour ceux qui ont terminé le niveau débutant du japonais (jusqu'à la leçon 50 de Minna no Nihongo) et ceux qui comprennent la grammaire de base mais ne peuvent pas parler couramment en utilisant les structures de phrases. Il y a des manuels sur une variété de sujets, ainsi qu'une révision de la grammaire, afin que vous puissiez pratiquer la conversation de manière approfondie !


    Les débutants complets qui ne peuvent pas lire les hiraganas et les katakanas, il y a un texte avec l'alphabet. Ne vous inquiétez pas.Ceux qui peuvent lire les hiraganas et les katakanas devraient commencer par des structures de phrases simples. Nous allons préparer les manuels, donc tout ce dont nous avons besoin, c'est de votre motivation.
