Hi. Nice to meet you.
My name is Shimpei.
I run a design studio in Kyoto and have a business career of nearly 30 years.
I have been to USA, China, Russia, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Turkey, India,
and South Korea on business.
While taking English online lessons, which I continue to do, I also wanted to teach Japanese to people who are interested in Japan. So, I got a professional Japanese qualification.
I have a patient personality, so I think students will be able to take classes comfortably.
My hobbies are swimming and learning foreign languages.
Me as a Teacher
I am currently teaching Japanese at the Kyoto City International Association.
Students of various levels come every week, so I prepare various teaching materials and conduct lessons according to the level of the students on the spot.
I have taught Japanese to people from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Belgium, Bulgaria, Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Australia, France, and Canada.
I want to support people who are interested in Japanese.
I am also learning English and Chinese online, so I know that learning a language is like a long journey.
I'm a patient and hardworking type, so I'm sure I can help Japanese learners.
My lessons & teaching style
The grammar course
I give the learners a worksheet that I made in advance. On the day of class, grammar is explained using my own PPT, and worksheets are used for conversation practice.
Illustrations are the main contents of the worksheet. Therefore, learners think for themselves and practice speaking. Conversational skills cannot be acquired in classes that only read Japanese textbooks. Let's practice speaking Japanese with the worksheet I made. I will follow the flow of "Minna no Nihongo for grammar course.
Free conversation
All levels of learners are welcome. We will talk about Japanese articles and free topics for learners. Let's talk about Japanese traditions, food, life and travel.
