Ich als Lehrkraft
I have been teaching Japanese on italki since May 2022. I completed the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in July. So I can teach you Japanese using different methods.
I studied English in New Zealand and Portuguese in Portugal from scratch and currently studying Spanish so I understand the challenges and joy of learning new languages.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My course will primarily focus on the following areas:
*Free talk
We can engage in conversations about various topics that interest you. This approach ensures your satisfaction and keeps you motivated throughout the learning process
*Japanese common phrases and grammar
Having completed a Japanese teaching course and gained experience teaching on platforms like italki, I am confident in my ability to employ diverse teaching methods
*Japanese business in the hospitality industries
From my professional experience in hospitality industries, can teach you the common words and phrases used in these fields
I want your Japanese to be improved and at the same time let's make learning Japanese fun!

Getting familiar with Japanese for beginners/「初中級」日本語の基礎(きそ)から応用(おうよう)まで
I've learned with Makoto san for a month before I'm going to Japan. He prepare a real situation I may face when traveling such as order a food, asking for a direction etc. It helps me a lot when I am in Japan. Creating new experiences for me when I can speak a short conversation with Japanese.
Also Makoto san is a good listener, always support his student. He makes me confident speaking Japanese. He is a very good teacher.

I have done a number of lessons with Makoto Sensei and I always find our lessons very fun and interactive. Makoto Sensei is very patient and I always learn new vocabulary during our dialogue practice. I also enjoy the materials he sends for preparation before class.

A truly wonderful teacher who's passionate about the subject of language learning. No question is too big or too small - if you want to learn the nuances in the Japanese language and really understand context in which different phrases should be used, this is your guy!

Makoto does an excellent job of tailoring each lesson to what I want to work on. He asks me for feedback and takes my responses into consideration when preparing our next lesson. He is patient and kind and makes me feel comfortable even though sometimes it can feel embarrassing when you are trying to speak in an unfamiliar language. I always enjoy our lessons and feel like I am learning a lot.
