Japanese Conversation through Food and Culture Hello, I’m Micchi, a professional Japanese teacher living on Awaji Island, known in Japanese mythology as the island of creation. I offer topic-based Japanese conversation lessons for B1 and above learners who want to improve their speaking skills through food, culture, dashi, tea, and daily life. For nearly 30 years, I have been involved in Japanese food culture, including home cooking, seasonings, dashi, umami, tea, and daily food life. Through our conversations, you can practice speaking Japanese while exploring the values, aesthetics, and cultural feelings behind Japanese food, tea, dashi, seasons, and daily life. This will help you understand natural Japanese expressions and the kind of communication that goes beyond the literal meaning of words. In my lessons, we may talk about miso, soy sauce, katsuobushi, kombu, chopsticks, food habits, Japanese tea, Chinese tea, Taiwanese tea, kimono, and life on Awaji Island. All lessons are conducted in Japanese only. I speak at a natural speed, explain simply, and correct your Japanese when needed. My teaching style is calm, gentle, and practical. You do not need to speak perfectly. I will support you in finding your own words in Japanese while enjoying meaningful cultural topics. This is not a business Japanese lesson. Free conversation is welcome when the topic is related to Japanese food, culture, tea, dashi, or daily life. If my available times do not fit your schedule, please feel free to send me a lesson request!
