Me as a Teacher

わたしは　にほんごきょうしの　しかくを　もっています。わたしの　レッスンは　しょきゅうしゃに　いいです。わたしも　えいごを　べんきょうしていますから、げんごを　べんきょうすることの　むずかしさが　わかります。げんごの　べんきょうの　ゴールは　かんぺきな　にほんごじゃ　ありません。げんごは　コミュニケーションのためです。わたしの　じゅぎょうでは　はなすきかいが　たくさん　あります。まちがえは　いいですから、たくさん　はなしましょう！ I have a certificate as a Japanese teacher. My lessons are good for beginners. I’m also studying English, so I understand how difficult learning a new language can be. I believe that conversation is the most important part of learning a language. The goal is not to speak perfect Japanese. Language is for communication. In my lessons, you will have many chances to speak. It’s okay to make mistakes — let’s speak a lot and enjoy learning together!

My lessons & teaching style

My all lessons focus on speaking. I provide students many opportunities to speak Japanese. I think studying language is just tools for the communication. You have many opportunities to speak Japanese in my class. You don’t have to worry about making a mistake. Let’s talk in Japanese a lot with me!

Although I was a bit nervous at first, Hirona's kind and supportive attitude helped me feel more at ease ✨ Her explanations were clear and well-paced, and I’m motivated to continue learning and improving with her guidance. I’m really looking forward to our next lesson, ありがとうございました！☺️

ひろなさん is a great teacher. She adapted very quickly to my knowledge level and we did some challenging hiragana practice in class. She has ignited my motivation to dedicate time to learning Japanese again, and I am looking forward to more classes with her.

Hirona is an excellent tutor! During the very first lesson, she made me feel comfortable and at ease. She has a great eye for detail, especially when it comes to pronunciation, and she explains things very clearly. Her patient and cheerful personality made the lesson fly by with plenty of laughs. I’m looking forward to my next session!
