About Me
italki teacher since Nov 25, 2021
私は、外資系の製薬会社で長い間働いていました。そこで新しい薬を開発する仕事をするとともに、外国人とのコミュニケーションの重要性を学びました。 私は元々、日本語を学び、日本の文化や歴史に興味を持っている外国の人が好きで、そういう人に日本語の勉強をサポートしたいと思っていましたので、リタイア後、日本語教師を目指し、昨年公認の日本語教師の資格を取りました。 趣味は、ゴルフ、プロ野球観戦、映画鑑賞、旅行、ミステリー小説、プラモデルなどです。 My name is Fujio HAYAMA. I was working for some foreign affiliated pharmaceutical companies for a long time, and in charge of new drug development. I learned importance of the communication with foreigners there. I originally like foreigners who are studying Japanese and interested in Japanese culture and history, so I really want to support such learners of Japanese. My hobbies are golf, walking, professional baseball movies, traveling, mystery novels etc.

I've been taking lessons with Hayama-sensei for a few months now. I think I have written a review before but thought I would write another. Hayama-sensei is very knowledgable and capable when it comes to teaching Japanese. He has been very helpful in my aim to improve my language skills. I especially recommend anyone who wants to work in Japan to take lessons with Hayama-sensei.

This is my 2nd class with Hayama-san. He is very patient and explains things clearly. He provided materials way in advance for preparation. He aligns his explanations based on your level and understanding. I look forward to future sessions.

Mr. Hayama is patient, knowledgable and exceeds at explaining complex grammar and vocabulary in simple terms in Japanese. When working through our learning material in lessons, I am encouraged to bring my own thoughts and summaries. That teaching style has already led to a noticeable improvement in my reading comprehension within only a few lessons. He even takes his time to write feedback after every lesson, which in turn motivates me to devote more of my free time to studying Japanese. Further, Mr. Hayama's knowledge goes beyond teaching Japanese and as such, every lesson so far has been a new learning about Japan's history and culture for me.
