I’m a certified Japanese teacher and started to teaching Japanese since 2017. I'm teaching one on one lesson in Italki and group lesson at a Japanese culture center in NC.
I am very beginner friendly since I'm teaching a lot of beginner students now. If you just started learning Japanese, do you want to try my lesson?
For intermediate, you might have a experience that you were just focus on listening in a group conversation and couldn't talk a lot. I totally understand and I can help you with my teaching skill, patience, and encouragement. The more you speak Japanese the more you can improve! So please don't hesitate to make mistake in my class!My lessons & teaching style
★Every one is welcomed! ★
For beginners, I am usually using the Genki text book and my original google slides along with the textbook to improve your understanding more and show more example sentence of practical use.
For intermediate and advanced students, I use some textbooks, some articles, sometimes youtube videos ,songs, anime, newspaper articles to practice conversation, listening and reading.
I can give a lesson if you are interested in health and nutrition(I am working as a dietitian for Japanese people)
I recommend you to book a trial lesson, we can talk about your learning aims and make a plan for you.My teaching material

It was a very nice first lesson with Maiko-san! She explains the meaning behind phrases. She interacts with you to make sure you understand how to introduce yourself properly. She provides a fun and safe environment for you to learn.

Maiko-sensei was very friendly and encouraging during my trial lesson. I liked that she typed the words into the chat so that I could see them. I would recommend Maiko if you are nervous, she made me feel at ease.
