こんにちは、Yumiです。ベルギーで2人の子どもを育てながら、日本語を教えています。日本だけでなくモロッコにも住んでいたので、文化の違いや日常の面白い話を共有するのが大好きです。
私自身も言語を勉強中なので、覚えるだけじゃなく「使える日本語」を楽しみながら身につけることの大切さがよくわかります。レッスンでは、日常会話やニュース、食べ物の話など、暮らしに役立つ日本語をリラックスして学べます。
旅や文化の話を交えながら、一緒に日本語を話す楽しさを体験してみませんか？少しずつ、あなたのペースで日本語の世界を広げていきましょう！
Hi, I’m Yumi! I live in Belgium, raise two kids, and teach Japanese. I’ve also lived in Japan and Morocco, so I love sharing stories about cultural differences and everyday life.
As a language learner myself, I focus on helping you enjoy using Japanese in real life—through conversations, news, food, and more. Let’s explore Japanese together in a fun and relaxed way!Me as a Teacher
★ I love teaching Japanese and sharing Japanese culture.
I’m a certified Japanese teacher and have taught in Japan, Morocco, and online one-to-one lessons.
★ I know learning a new language can be tricky.
I’ve studied French and Moroccan Arabic, and now I’m learning Dutch myself—so I understand how it feels to struggle, make mistakes, and have those “aha!” moments.
★ I’m friendly, patient, and easygoing.
Feel free to relax in my lessons and ask me anything—you’re never bothering me! Let’s make learning Japanese fun together. My lessons & teaching style
■ Trial Lesson
In the trial lesson, I’d love to get to know you—your study background, motivation, and goals. This helps me tailor the lessons to your needs and make learning meaningful from the very start.
■ Free Conversation
We’ll chat about any topic you like! This is a great way to practice daily Japanese naturally. During our conversation, I’ll introduce useful grammar, vocabulary, and expressions to help you speak more confidently.
■ Let’s Read Japanese News
We’ll read Japanese news together, check your understanding, and discuss the stories. This not only improves your Japanese but also gives you a deeper insight into Japanese culture and society.My teaching material

I'm always looking forward to lessons with Yumi-sensei. We laugh a lot! She's very patient with me, even though I sometimes make the same mistake 4 times in the same lesson!

Yumi’s lesson motivates me to speak and apply the new vocabularies and grammatical rules in the conversation. I am looking forward to taking her lesson soon.
