About Me
italki teacher since Dec 16, 2024InterestsEnvironment & NatureFoodPets & AnimalsReadingTravel
Hello everyone, I am from Hokkaido in Japan.
I have lived in the UK for more than two decades, with experience teaching Japanese in a local secondary school for 5 years, where I introduced Japanese culture and traditions along with the Japanese language into my lessons. I have recently become a certified teacher.
I love animals, nature and yoga, all the simple things in life because less is more.
I would like to meet lots of people from around the world.Me as a Teacher
I am reliable, conscientious and determined to assist you to learn to your fullest potential.
When learners need help, I am someone who is patient and caring to support my students every step of the way, no matter how difficult it is.
My goal as a teacher is to help my students improve to the best of their ability however large or small the progression. Persistence is the key.
Hopefully my friendly manner and positivity as a certified teacher will help guide you to become more fluent in Japanese. Please feel free to ask me anything if you have any questions.My lessons & teaching style
I would like learners to focus on listening and speaking practices from dialogue for beginners which are the colloquial every day phrases used in conversations in Japan, rather than learning formal academic phrases from general text books.
I will use pictures, whiteboard and some resources along with a lesson.
I am flexible with my students' goals and preferred method of learning; textbooks (Genki ) are also available.
I teach in both English and Japanese.My teaching material

Rie 先生 is a super friendly teacher who deeply cares about her students. She is full of positive energy, and is very supportive, caring and cheerful. After each lesson I'm very happy and am always looking forward to the next one! If you want to speak Japanese in a friendly atmosphere I recommend booking a lesson with Rie 先生.
りえ先生はすごくやさしい先生で生徒さんを大事にする。ポジティブなエネルギーがいっぱいで、すごく思いやりでウキウキしている。僕は毎レッスンの後いつも元気になって今度のレッスンを楽しみにしている。親しみやすい先生と日本語の会話をしたい場合、りえ先生のレッスンはおすすめ！

Rie is a fantastic teacher. I am gearing up for a trip to Japan and she is teaching me functional Japanese that will be useful for day to day interactions. She is patient and teaches at a pace that suits me. Would highly recommend!

My Japanese is very basic and I have only studied from books before, but she's patient and friendly, so I'm starting to feel more comfortable speaking with every lesson. I'm really enjoying her lessons, and I would definitely recommend her, if you're looking for a more informal way of learning, focusing on useful sentences and vocabulary.
