Greetings!
Thanks for checking out my profile.
My name is Miki. I was born and raised in Japan. I'm here because I find it rewarding to be able to help people improve Japanese and enjoy teaching. I worked as a TA at a university in the US so I have experience helping with university courses.

Me as a Teacher
I have taught children as young as five years old. For children, I use puppets and power point slides to learn words and grammar together. Conversation lessons are fun tool for the Japanese learners to talk about their favorite things, recent news, or about their family and friends.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are the place for people to practice safely without judgements. You are welcomed to talk about any topics of your interest in Japanese, and I will type out words and phrases that suit the most so that you can review after the class. However, if the topic does not align with the italki community guidelines, I will have to end the lesson immediately and your account will be reported.
Lessons with cancellations within 24 hours and no show will be charged in full unless emergency.

I had a very good trial session with Miki. She was very patient and adapted well to my beginner level of Japanese so we spend the full 30 mins talking in Japanese while only resorting to English as a translation aid whenever I did not know some word.
