About Me
italki teacher since Apr 25, 2024Interest topicMusicTravelFoodArtEnvironment & Nature
■I have been interested in cross-cultural communication for more than 20 years, and I majored in Human Sciences at Keio University. I have been teaching as a qualified professional since January 2024. Every day I see my students grow is rewarding and happy. I am convinced that THIS IS MY CALLING！
■My partner was transferred to Vietnam before. In my late 20s, I learned Vietnamese from scratch and went through trial and error until I could speak it, going to school, taking private lessons at university, and so on. It has enriched my life and is NOW useful when teaching Japanese.
■I love… Nature🌍/Food /the 4 seasons of Japan /Ghibli movies /Fujii Kaze /Shodo /Kimono /Kendama, etc...Me as a Teacher
🔸As an online Professional Japanese teacher, I have been teaching on other platforms since January 2024. I'm from Tokyo and I speak standard Japanese.
In my work, I have experience in radio talks and hosting large conferences, so I am good at teaching speech contests and interviews (including dictation, pronunciation, and accent).
＜WELCOME!!＞
🔸Those who want to make summer memories with their children in Japanese! (＝summer camp)
●Those who start Japanese from scratch
●Intermediate/advanced learners who have already taken the JLPT test but want to re-learn especially Speaking
●Those who want to travel to Japan or who love Japanese culture
●Those who love the SOUND of Japanese etc...My lessons & teaching style
I based on "Marugoto" and more.
You can listen to a lot of audio before the lesson, and in the lesson, you can focus on the output practice. Instead of simply reading the textbook, it is a training to take your eyes off the textbook and replace it with your own words.
※ I'm interested in the relationship between language and culture, and I like not only serious Japanese but also informal Japanese, comedy, movies, songs, poems（including Japanese TANKA, HAIKU）, dialects, etc.My teaching material

Another amazing lesson with Misao. She tailors lessons to what I want to learn and helps me with my goals even when they seem too ambitious to complete. She is so encouraging and with her I have the confidence to learn a lot of Japanese!

Misao was very friendly and well prepared! She was engaging and fun to talk to. She was great at exploring the things I find interesting about Japanese culture and focusing on them as ways to learn. She even wrote my name using kanji and explained the meaning to me!
