About Me
italki teacher since Dec 1, 2021Interest topicHistoryBusiness & FinanceTravelMusicFood
My name is Harumi. I was born and raised in Japan.
I studied music in a college in LA, and then went to Brazil.
I leaned Portuguese there just by listening, and it opened my eyes how important it is to use your ears when you learn a language.
Now I'm back in the US and teach music and languages online besides making YouTube videos.
I love traveling, and I used to do backpacking in all over the world.
Olá! Tudo bem? Sou Harumi.
Sou japonesa casada com brasileiro.
Fui ao Brasil e morei lá uns sete anos. Atualmente moro nos EUA dando aula on-line.
Gosto muito de viajar e conhecer as pessoas!
こんにちは！はるみです。
私は日本で生まれましたが現在はアメリカに住んでいます。
日本語、英語、ポルトガル語とスペイン語を話します。
日本語以外にオンラインでポルトガル語やブラジル音楽などを教えています。Me as a Teacher
I've been teaching more than 20 years now.
As a language teacher, I started teaching Japanese in Brazil in 2014.
But I also taught music, English and other materials for kids in Japan, so teaching was always my passion.
I started teaching online in 2019, and now I teach every single day.
I love to see the students' progress so every level is welcome in my lesson.
Recently I started to learn Chinese and French online, too, in order to, of course, improve my language skills but also to understand my students' difficulties.
I've been discovering a lot of things by learning languages as a student, and that's helping me to set my mind and to reflect to and to improve my own lesson.My lessons & teaching style
I have materials to practice building Japanese frases in your head and start speaking right away.
I'm also good at explaining grammar.
If you're a total beginner, don't worry, I'll explain everything in English or other languages, but I also want you to challenge to listen pure Japanese and try to understand the context.
For intermediate and advanced students, I use articles and stories to strengthen their proficiencies.
I love talking about culture or history, too.
I can always customize your lessons depending on your needs, or I can measure you level instantly.
From my lots of teaching experience I always have ideas what you need to do in order to improve your skill to achieve your goal.My teaching material

Harumi-sensei is very good at explaining things and always adds additional information on general usage of words, phrases and concepts. I'm not trying to be a language teacher or get a certificate, just want to learn to speak and write for everyday life. Harumi-sensei caters the lessons to your needs. Always recommended.

A wonderful first lesson with Harumi-sensei, we talked about a lot of interesting stuff, she is very patient and helpful when you don't find the right words to express yourself. Highly recommended!

Its a little frustrating at times, the whole learning something you don't know. I stumbled a little today, but we'll dust ourselves off and continue through. There is never any pressure with Harumi-sensei and she will explain things again as needed.

Harumi-sensei's lessons are fun and informative. She's always motivational even when I make the same mistakes (always forget to include certain Japanese counters). Always cheery and encouraging.

Harumi-sensei sensei has a good grasp of what your level is and will push you accordingly. I do not ever feel like things are out of reach, but do feel the push to try a little harder each time.
