I was born and raised in Ibaraki Japan and I currently live in Barcelona Spain.
I have studied English in America for a year when I was in high school. After high school, I went to Melbourne Australia to learn hospitality management for a year.
After my study I’ve worked in hospitality industry for more than 5 years in Japan. I have taught Japanese through Italki for about 3 years. Teaching Japanese to people from other countries was one of my dreams and I am glad to make that happen now!
Me as a Teacher
I am a friendly and open person! If you are first time learning Japanese on Italki, you may be nervous at first but I promise I won't be make you nervous. We can talk about each other and if you make mistakes I can correct you:)
My lessons & teaching style
Let's practice Japanese in everyday conversations. The phases written on your Japanese textbook are not always useful for everyday speaking conversations. If you have your own textbook, I can teach you how you can use the phases/ words in casual conversations. If your Japanese is basics, I can use PDFs to teach you greetings and some grammars!
For those who don't have opportunities to use Japanese, I can provide with you the chance to practice your Japanese!
日常会話を中心にしたレッスンを行なっていますが、もしレッスンにリクエストがあれば、お応えすることも可能です。日本語のテキストやわからない単語やフレーズがあれば、日常会話でどのように使えるか教えることもできます。みなさん一人一人に合わせたレッスンを行います。
