Hi I'm Kiki!
初めましてキキと申します。
I was born and raised in Cleveland Ohio and now am living in Nagoya, Japan. I love Japanese language and culture. Some of the things I enjoy include: cosplay, anime and manga, video games, fashion, cooking.
私はアメリカのオハイオ州クリーブランドに生まれて育ちされました。今は名古屋に住んでいます。日本語も日本の文化が大好きです。（特に和食、和菓子、とアニメと漫画）私の趣味は：コスプレ、アニメと漫画、ゲーム、ファション、料理
I have a daughter under one years old. I take care of her full time so you may hear her in the background.
1歳未満の娘がいます。預かったりしていませんので後ろに聞こえてくる可能性があります。
I am self taught in my Japanese so I understand the difficulty of learning a new language very well.
私は日本語を自習だけで学びましたので語学の難しさをよく知っています。Me as a Teacher
You could say I am an alternative thinking teacher. I only expect my students to try their best.
普段の先生と違うと言えるかも知りませんが生徒に対する期待は一つだけです、皆ができるだけ頑張って欲しいです。
I don't want to just have you feel like you are memorizing words and repeating me. I aim to give each student the confidence to not only understand, but confidently express themselves through English.
単語を覚えさして真似ることだけではなく生徒に英語をわかるような自信と自分の意見や言いたいことを心から言えるように差し上げたいです。
I try to refrain from using a lot of Japanese, but also see no sense in forced immersion when a student is struggling to completely understand a word or topic.
日本語をいっぱい使いことはしないですが無理やりさせたくないので生徒が特に困ったり理解していないの場合は英語だけではなくて日本語でもはっきり教えたいと思います。My lessons & teaching style
Lessons tend to be more conversation and output based, but the key to my lessons is the individualization to each student.
キキのレッスンは大体会話とアウトプットに集中しますがポイントは生徒たちに一人一人を合わせてレッスンを提供することです。
We will use materials and activities that interest you, and theres no strict curriculum or textbooks. Games, debates, videos, quizzes; these are all different ways you can expect to enjoy my lessons.
貴方が使いたい教材を使用します。カリキュラムや教科書は固定じゃないですからトピックとやる事は生徒に合わせます。いくつのやることの例えは：ゲーム、議論、動画、クイズMy teaching material

I was nervous before taking the lesson, but I was able to enjoy it. She is very kind and her explanations are easy to understand, so I would like to take her lessons again.
