My name is Yoshito. I'm from Kochi, Japan. I love travelling and cultural exchange. I lived in Cardiff, Wales, France, Korea and Poland.
My favourite films are "Psycho", "Tokyo Story", "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg", "Cold War", "Parasite" etc... Too many to name!
I love learning languages as well. I'm mainly focusing on Mandarin at the moment.
J'ai vécu en France pendant un an et c'était la meilleure expérience de ma vie. Cela m'a aidé à améliorer mon français.Me as a Teacher
I’m patient, encouraging and understanding. During my Polish and Korean lessons on iTalki, I say "I don't understand." "Can you say it again please?" hundreds of times and make tons of mistakes. It's a process of language learning! During our lessons, I repeat and paraphrase as many times as you wish until you understand. I want my lessons to be a place where you can make mistakes and you don’t feel any pressure. Please consider our lessons as conversation with a Japanese friend. I’d like to focus on having fun.
I’m not here to practice my English but to help you learn Japanese, so I’d like to talk with you in Japanese as much as possible. However, I wouldn’t force you to speak Japanese.My lessons & teaching style
僕のレッスンは会話中心です。皆さんが好きなトピックについて楽しく話しましょう!文法の説明は少しにして、できるだけ会話の練習をしたいです。
I put a great emphasis on conversation practice. I mainly speak Japanese so that you can immerse yourself in the language. I believe that this immersion will help you improve your Japanese. If you don't understand, I'll use lots of drawings, photos and gestures.
I respect how you want to learn Japanese. As a language learner myself, I like experimenting with methods and I think people should learn languages as they wish, so I’d like to tailor my lessons to your needs and interests.
During our lesson I'll write down new words and expressions in our Google Doc file. Hope it will be useful when you review.My teaching material

Yoshito 先生 is seriously an amazing teacher! His ability to understand english yet communicate ideas and teach entirely in Japanese is a powerful way to boost your comprehension. I always find myself learning a lot while also having a laugh here and there. Yoshito 先生, Thank you for all your efforts! I look forward to any of the next lessons!

Yoshitoさん is a really kind and down-to-earth teacher! What I enjoy most is that I can take my time to find the words I'm looking for in my head without feeling stressed. Great for those who feel very nervous about speaking in their target language. Definitely recommend!

Great as always! If anyone wants to work on pitch accent/pronunciation then Yoshito-sensei is the teacher to see. He has far more knowledge about pronunciation than any other teacher I know.

Truly a great teacher all-round, he is super patient with repeting things more than once and all my questions, that always puts me at ease, and he is also extremely competent in explaining the use of the language in a real-life way and also in a grammatical way. Our lessons are packed with speaking and listening practice, useful vocab, and much more and I always learn a lot, yet it always feels like I've just chatted and had fun with an old friend!
