About Maria Paola
Hello! My name is Maria Paola, and I am a professional translator, with a Master's degree in Translation. My passion for foreign languages and cultures, especially Japanese, led me to specialize in this field. I was lucky enough to study for a year at a Japanese university, an experience that deeply enriched both my language skills and my knowledge of the local culture.
Through my studies and direct contact with Japan, I have developed a comprehensive approach to teaching Japanese, which combines theory and practice in an effective and engaging way. Whether it's grammar, conversation or culture, my lessons will help you progress with confidence and fun.
I love to travel to Japan whenever I can, to immerse myself again in its fascinating culture and, of course, its wonderful food!

Konnichiwa! If you want to learn Japanese and immerse yourself in a fascinating culture, you're in the right place! I'm Maria Paola, passionate about Japanese language and culture, and I can't wait to share this wonderful adventure with you!
My teaching method
Learning Japanese can seem like a challenge, but with the right approach it becomes fun and engaging! I use a mix of interactive techniques to help you memorize vocabulary and master grammar without stress. In practice, I like to make everything more visual and practical: we will use images, quizzes, and lots of real-life situations, because theory is not enough – you have to put yourself out there!
Each lesson is a little journey: not only will I teach you the language, but I will also make you explore unique cultural aspects, from traditional holidays to manga and anime, to Japanese cuisine. Get ready to discover Japan in 360°!
How a typical lesson of mine unfolds
Warm-up: Let's start with a short conversation to warm up, reviewing what we learned in the previous lessons. We'll talk about how your day went or your plans, in Japanese of course!
New content: I introduce a new topic, whether it's a grammatical structure, new vocabulary, or maybe some kanji! I explain everything with practical examples, and don't worry, we go at your own pace.
Interactive Practice: Let's do role-playing games, quizzes, or discuss an anime scene. This is where you can let your imagination run wild and apply what you've learned!
Q&A and closing: at the end, there is always room for questions and doubts. And I leave you with a little creative task or exercise for the next meeting. Thank you!
My teaching approach
Every student is different, and my lessons are adaptable to your needs. If you are a complete beginner, we will start with the basics: hiragana and katakana! If you already have a basic, we can go deeper into grammar or advanced conversation.
Additionally, I like to incorporate elements of Japanese culture into each lesson. You may be interested in learning why Japanese people say "Itadakimasu" before eating or how they celebrate Tanabata, the festival of the stars.
Who are my lessons aimed at?
My classes are open to everyone, from kids to adults, from beginners to more advanced students. Do you want to learn Japanese for study, work, or simply for passion? I will help you achieve your goals, whether it's preparing for a trip to Japan or reading your favorite manga without translations!
Whether you are a high school student, a professional looking to improve your language skills, or a Japanese pop culture enthusiast, my lessons will offer you the perfect mix of fun and serious learning.
I can't wait to start this journey with you! Book a lesson today, and I promise that learning Japanese will never be this interesting and enjoyable! またね!

L’aiuto di Maria Paola è stato fondamentale per superare l’ultimo anno di liceo. Mi ha aiutato molto con la letteratura capendo anche cosa volevano i professori da me. Le lezioni erano sia istruttive che divertenti. Consiglio a tutte le persone che vogliono migliorare il proprio livello di inglese
Maria Paola mi ha dato lezioni di inglese. Mi sono trovato molto bene grazie al suo metodo di insegnamento. Mi ha aiutato nella comprensione del testo e nella letteratura, ha inoltre migliorato il mio livello nel dialogo. Le sue lezioni non annoiano, ma invogliano a scoprire. Super consigliata
