About Me
italki teacher since Aug 29, 2018
Hello! I like learning languages and I am very interested in knowing why you like to learn different languages. We can share our experiences on language learning and talk about a lot of different topics.
I was born and raised in Japan until I was 19 and came to the U.S. After I learned English I learned Spanish (by watching telenovelas!) and Korean ( got hooked on Korean dramas!) and took some French and Italian courses. And now I'm learning German for about a year now. I am starting to learn Brazilian Portuguese also. I love learning languages because I will understand other cultures and how other people think in different languages.
こんにちは! 私は現在カリフォルニアのロザンジェルスにすんでいます。日本人の方で英語を習いたい方もご連絡を!
Me as a Teacher
As a language learner, I know what is more important in learning different languages. For some people memorizing words and phrases will work, for some people just having a real conversation with a native speaker will help. So let's find what works for you and learn together!
日本人の方へ、英語を勉強していらっしゃる方で、英語を勉強したい方は日本語を使って説明ができますので、是非一度レッスンをお試しください。上級の方には英語でのレッスンが効果的だと思いますが、日本語での説明の方がより効果的に内容の把握をすることができると思います。
My lessons & teaching style
I can teach you the way you like. If you like to learn grammar, we can study grammar. If you like to chat and learn we can chat! Because not all of us are made the same so why should language learning be the same for all, right?
I will create customized lessons after going through a few lessons and I will determine what will work best for my students. And we will focus on students' weak points and work on those particular things they are struggling with.

Lesson was phenomenal. Ryoji was extremely patient and very helpful. I really enjoyed my time and felt like Ryoji really cared about my progress. I will definitely request another lesson with him and highly recommend anyone to take a lesson from him. Thank you, Ryoji!
