Hello, my name is Dai.
I have been a Japanese teacher in Japan for five years.
I have studied abroad in the United States, so I can speak English.
My hobbies are traveling, games, manga, etc.
My favorite manga are Slam Dunk and Dragon Ball.
I have loved games since I was a child, and have played most of the famous games such as Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy.
I have traveled to about 12 countries.
I have traveled to the United States, Canada, Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, the Philippines, Italy, France, Germany, etc.
I love the cultures of various countries, so please tell me about your country.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Japanese face-to-face for 5 years
I have a lot of experience teaching Japanese. Some of the students I've taught passed the JLPT N2 in just one year, even though they couldn't speak Japanese at all.
The first step in learning Japanese is to not be afraid of making mistakes.
It's okay to make mistakes, so let's talk a lot!
The fastest way to improve is to talk a lot about your favorite Japanese topics.
I'm looking forward to talking with you allMy lessons & teaching style
Lessons are conducted in both English and Japanese.
Of course, lessons in Japanese only are also fine.
Currently, I have taught over 500 lessons.
I recommend that beginners who are learning Japanese use a textbook.
I use "GENKI".
This book is written in English and is aimed at beginners, and is used by many Japanese language learners.
By using this book, you can understand Japanese smoothly.
If you have studied Japanese before and are confident, you can take lessons without using textbooks.
I think I can provide lessons that suit each individual.
I can also teach simple Japanese that can be used in various places to those who are planning to travel to Japan.My teaching material

Dai sensei did a great job making me feel comfortable speaking. He understood when I was struggling and helped me correct as I was speaking.

It was another fun class reading a manga, and learning about the different gitaigo/giongo (onomatopeia) in class that are common in manga. Dai explains well, and I can easily understand what new words/expressions mean, as well as what kind of context you could use/find them. Great class!

I had a great first lesson with Dai. We talked a bit about my past experiences with Japanese, and my goals for the class. Dai was very attentive, and very encouraging. Except for a few words here and there, we spoke only in Japanese, and if there was a new Japanese word, he took the time to explain it a bit in Japanese first before saying an English word.

先生には、ただ文法を翻訳して、自分で中国語の文法書を読むように言うのではなく、文法の概念についてもっと説明してもらいたいと思います。
