नमस्ते ! Namaste ! Bonjour ! Hello ! My name is Rijendra Shrestha, I live in Kathmandu and I speak French, English, Newari and Hindi. I am a Nepali and French language teacher, translator and author of French grammar books. I have a deep interest in other cultures and how people learn new languages. During my four years in France, I met people from different countries who were interested in Nepal. Thanks to them, I learned many things, of which I was not aware about my own country and culture. Thank you for reading my profile. धन्यवाद ! Dhanyabaad ! Merci ! Thank you !

Ich als Lehrkraft
I am sure that you already know few words in Nepali, "namaste", "yoga", "Himalaya", "stupa", "yak"... Helping my students to learn Nepali is my main motivation. I have been teaching Nepali for 7 years and French for 12 years. I am a certified teacher with a master degree in teaching French as a foreign language. I am very patient with my students and believe that everyone learns at different pace. All my teaching methods suit my students' needs. Being once a student of French and English languages, I know what difficulties and challenges one faces while learning a new language.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I teach in a friendly atmosphere during our one-to-one lessons. I use diverse tools to make the lessons interactive and entertaining, such as famous Nepali songs lyrics, restaurant menus, pictures from the daily life in Kathmandu, interactive online vocabulary exercises. If you are a beginner, you will be learning how to greet in Nepali, introduce yourself, ask basic questions, talk about your family, useful sentences for shopping... In a few lessons, you will also learn to make simple sentences using basic structures of Nepali and Nepali alphabets. If you want to learn Nepali for a specific purpose, we can plan the lessons together to meet your goal. Hope to see you soon in class !

Rijendra is a wonderful teacher and has been making my Nepali learning journey both enjoyable and tangibly successful. His teaching style is an excellent mix of spontaneous and structured that feels purposeful while allowing for questions and learning based on what pops up in conversational. I’d highly recommended him for supporting your Nepali learning journey

Another great lesson with Rejendra. We practiced full sentences to help with speaking. He is really great at going through and reinforcing already known word.

I highly recommend Rijendraji. I have studied several languages before, and I have never made progress this fast. His lessons are varied, practical, and easy to use in real-life situations. He creates a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere, which makes it comfortable and stress-free to speak Nepali, even as a beginner. I also really appreciate that he shares cultural insights during the lessons, which makes learning Nepali even more interesting and meaningful. Thank you for being such a great teacher!
