The new learner is always welcome=) Feel free to approach me if you have any question. My name is Tadahiro Murooka. I was born in Osaka, in 1972. And I live in Tokyo now. My hobby is English, observing people, and weight training. Needless to say, I love eating Japanese food =) Especially, I found myself fond of it more than any other countries food now. And I would like to draw pictures when I have the time but I don’t at the moment… however, I want to engage in such creative work someday. Some of my friends tell me that I am approachable. So you can feel free to give me any kind of question or request. I have student who is struggled with Dyslexia. Nowadays, such problem is very common. So I welcome such student as well=) Learning language is fun and rewarding but also sometimes challeging to continue without let up. Let's enjoy it with me!! I prefer to use GENKI book. It has two sections, Conversation & Grammar section and Reading & Writing section. I would like to cover both section because I believe that Speaking & Listening and Reading & Writing has the mutual relation. And as passing by chapters, we may talk everything in Japanese as much as we can. So learing both are the important thing for the student who wants to reach the intermediate or more level. As for me as a teacher, laying the foundation is the most important. In order to do that, I use the white board, audio file for shadowing or repeating practice with many homework. I'm sure that you can be confident in Japanese through my lessons!

Sensei is a fantastic and very skilled teacher. He is strict about pronunciation and stress on the words, because both significantly affect understanding in Japanese. He is empathetic about my current situation, (recently laid off from primary job), and really cares about me as a student and person. He is patient with me in my linguistic infancy in Japanese. I’d be lost without him!

Sensei is the best teacher on this platform. He has a gift for explaining his beautiful language in a way that can be understood by Non-Japanese speakers. He will push you hard only because he believes in his students’ full potential. He is also compassionate and empathetic to a student’s personal situation. He should be commended. I highly respect him and am indebted to him for his loyalty in teaching me…
