About Me

Hi, there. I’m Tomoko.
I'm Japanese native, and I passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test.
I have taught English at high schools in Japan for a long time, which makes me an experienced educator. Funny teacher, sttudents say
I'm sure that I am an experienced and good at reaching.
My hobbies are playing golf and visiting some Power Spots.
I started playing golf recently.
I enjoy plaing it because I can see my "score" getting better.
As I live in Osaka, near Kyoto and Nara, I often visit temples and shrines there by chance.
The Grand Ise Shrine is also my favorite. I visit it twice a year.
I like traveling, too, especially spots with hot springs.Me as a Teacher
As an experienced educator, I am good at grasping your levels and goals, and can provide you with lessons that fit you.
I also know how to motivate and encourage you.
My lessons will sure be fun and easy to understand.
I can use English in teaching the beginners.
Why don't you boost your Japanese with me?My lessons & teaching style
In my lessons I will teach you effectively using many flashcards, worksheets, and pattern practice. Let's speak as much as possible.
I have two courses ready; 1. the Basic Grammar Course for Beginners and 2. Conversation-based course. In the former, you can learn to speak Japanese the basis. Basically, I will follow the textbook, "Min-nano Nihongo." I have taught some "zero beginners." In the latter, we'll talk on some specific topics each time.
Either way, I will send you "Feedback Sheet" after the lessons, which are highly reviewed by my students, saying "Great! Understandable!", "That makes reviewing the lesson easy."
Let's get started learning together!My teaching material

Tomoko先生のレッスンは楽しくて面白いです！
I am always looking forward to my lessons with Tomoko先生, and have productive (and fun!) progress in them. But beyond even that success, are the feedback sheets provided after every lesson. They are an excellent summary of what was covered, and what should be reviewed. This dramatically reduces the burden of note taking, allowing me to focus on my primary objective, learning the language.

Tomoko-san is a great instructor! Tomoko-san encourages me to keep trying and is very patient. I appreciate that Tomoko-san wants to learn more about my goals and help me progress! Tomoko-san prepares for every lesson and her expertise as a teacher shows. I like that Tomoko-san switches up the teaching method if I'm getting stuck. Tomoko-san always spends the time necessary to make sure I understand everything before moving on.
