About Me
italki teacher since Apr 23, 2022InterestsTravelMedical & HealthcareSports & Fitness
Hello, my name is Makoto. I like traveling, I traveled to around 30 different countries. I used to live in New Zealand and Portugal. I lived in a few places such as Hokkaido, Gunma, and Okinawa.
I enjoy reading manga and watching Anime . My favorite one is Slam Dunk. I also like many others like One piece, Kimetsu no Yaiba, Tensura, Danmachi.
I like sports too, especially tennis, basketball, and Rugby.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Japanese on italki since May 2022. I completed the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in July. So I can teach you Japanese using different methods.
I studied English in New Zealand and Portuguese in Portugal from scratch and currently studying Spanish so I understand the challenges and joy of learning new languages.My lessons & teaching style
My course will primarily focus on the following areas:
*Free talk
We can engage in conversations about various topics that interest you. This approach ensures your satisfaction and keeps you motivated throughout the learning process
*Japanese common phrases and grammar
Having completed a Japanese teaching course and gained experience teaching on platforms like italki, I am confident in my ability to employ diverse teaching methods
*Japanese business in the hospitality industries
From my professional experience in hospitality industries, can teach you the common words and phrases used in these fields
I want your Japanese to be improved and at the same time let's make learning Japanese fun!My teaching material

I've learned with Makoto san for a month before I'm going to Japan. He prepare a real situation I may face when traveling such as order a food, asking for a direction etc. It helps me a lot when I am in Japan. Creating new experiences for me when I can speak a short conversation with Japanese.
Also Makoto san is a good listener, always support his student. He makes me confident speaking Japanese. He is a very good teacher.

I have done a number of lessons with Makoto Sensei and I always find our lessons very fun and interactive. Makoto Sensei is very patient and I always learn new vocabulary during our dialogue practice. I also enjoy the materials he sends for preparation before class.

A truly wonderful teacher who's passionate about the subject of language learning. No question is too big or too small - if you want to learn the nuances in the Japanese language and really understand context in which different phrases should be used, this is your guy!
