Hello! I am Eriko. I was born and raised in Yokohama, Japan and now I live in Spain. I enjoy cooking Japanese and Spanish cuisine and eating together with friends. I like walking in the beautiful countryside like ‘los pirineos’ and exploring and experiencing different countries and cultures. I completed a Advanced Japanese teacher training course and now I have 7 years’ experience both in house and online. In my classes, I speak Japanese where possible, but if necessary I can explain in English or Spanish. I encourage my students to feel as relaxed as possible, and try to build a good relationship between student and teacher.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have lived in Spain since 2016 and have taught Japanese to Spanish students in several language schools in person to children and adults in small groups and one-to-one. During this time, I also completed a Advanced Japanese teacher training course at The World Japanese Language Center in Australia. I now teach online classes to groups and one-to-one.
I worked for a number of companies including a major Japanese electronics company past 20 years in Japan and through my working experience in Japan, I have also mastered honorifics and business manners, so if necessary, we can also practice business conversation such as Keigo together.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
The most important thing to know, is that our lessons will be fun, friendly, and enjoyable. I love to teach through conversation, I am the teacher but the lesson is based on you. I will always have a lesson planned, but I like to adapt the lesson as we go, for whatever suits you best on the day. I am currently learning Spanish and English so I understand the difficulty and embarrassment you can sometimes feel when trying to learn a language. You will never feel embarrassed with me. I encourage my students to feel as relaxed as possible, and try to build a good relationship between student and teacher. I’m sure we’ll have fun studying Japanese together!
Eriko-san is a patient, bright and optimistic teacher. She is always very supportive and the classes go by like a breeze. I always look forward to our sessions! I'm delighted to have started Japanese and be learning it so easily thanks to her!
Es siempre un placer contar con ella, sus explicaciones y su simpatía.

I don't have much time for Japanese classes and I still can't really talk in Japanese, but slowly I know I'm improving thanks to Eriko sensei! When I started, it was really embarrasing for me to even try to speak in Japanese and I went blank whenever I tried to say something. As I don't have much time, I still struggle to conjugate verbs when speaking, I still mix formal and informal Japanese and most of the time I forget some words and grammar that I actually know. But with Eriko's help, now I actually do full Japanese classes in which I mostly talk in Japanese and only use Spanish or English when I really don't know how to explain or ask something. This is a big step for me and although the process will be difficult and slow, I will keep trying until I can actually maintain a conversation in correct Japanese. Thank you for being patient and kind to me, Eriko sensei, I'm really learning a lot!

I've been taking weekly lessons with えりこ先生 for just under a year, and they're always engaging, informative and fun.
With her help, I've now managed to complete the Genki I textbook, applying the grammar to tasks and conversations during our lessons. Studying alongside her has been invaluable, as I've been able to apply practical, real-life context to the material in the textbook, making it much more engaging. Not to mention, えりこ先生 is always very dedicated and supportive, helping me stay motivated in my continued studies!
I'm looking forward to studying more with えりこ先生!
ありがとうございます!

Learning Japanese is hard work. I had a super engaging lesson on katakana today. Thank you Eriko-sensei! I look forward to reading hiragana, katakana and kanji without relying on the romaji in the future. I am excited for my Japanese to gradually get better and better.

I had a very positive experience with Eriko. I learnt so much in only one hour. I was impressed with the range of materials, and although it was tough, I still had a lot of fun learning hiragana for the first time. I am glad I found Eriko! I cannot wait for more lessons improving my fluency in Japanese from beginner level onwards. Thank you Eriko.
