About Me
italki teacher since Jan 12, 2025InterestsSports & FitnessMedical & HealthcareMusicTravelReading
My name is Norio. I was born in 1951 and raised in Saitama, Japan.
In 1995, I took Japanese Language Training Course and I have been teaching Japanese to foreigners of various occupations since then.
I really enjoy riding my motorcycle. I have travelled across the American continent by motorcycle alone. Also, I have ridden around some countries in Europe.
I do work out at the gym at least 3 times a week.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Japanese for over 30 years. At first, I just volunteered. In 1995 I took Japanese Language Instructors Qualification Course, and ever since I’ve been a teacher to foreigners of various occupations. I believe language is an important means of communication. I’d like to help you improve your Japanese, and stimulate your interest in learning it more. I’ve always strived to help people who visit Japan. And what better way than to teach them Japanese! I’m very patient when I teach. I like to take time when preparing for my lessons. This way I never lack material nor topics in conversations with my students. Lesson type I can offer ranges from individual to small/large group.My lessons & teaching style
I endeavor to prepare well for my lessons. I do so by preparing teaching material appropriate to your needs and your current Japanese level. I own lots of course material, and I’m constantly creating new ones. My lesson components range from very basic Japanese (starting from hiragana and katakana and simple kanjis), to the higher and advanced levels (JLPT N2 and N1). Beside grammar and sentence structure, I like to incorporate every-day conversation too in my lessons. I believe these are vital for your daily life in Japan. With your help and cooperation, I know I can create a significant learning experience which will help you achieve progress in your Japanese learning journey.

Classes with Norio-sensei have been very productive, especially in terms of grammar and filling knowledge gaps, using lecture-style lessons. Norio is always very friendly and helpful when answering questions, and occasionally suggests expressions that make sense in context, which enriches vocabulary. When necessary, he also uses a whiteboard to write and provide examples. 次のクラスを見ること楽しみにしています！

Norio-sensei prepared a whole lesson with material according to my goals in Japanase, it was very personalized. He's very sweet and patient. I'm looking forward to watching his class again next week :)

Norio was very kind and explained everything. He wrote down all the points that needed to be explained for me. I enjoyed improving my vocabulary while having a conversation.

Norio-san is a friendly and engaging teacher who makes lessons enjoyable and comfortable. He came well-prepared and created plenty of opportunities for me to speak. He was patient and supportive, always ready to help when I didn’t know how to express something. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and encouraging language tutor.
