About Me
italki teacher since Apr 29, 2020InterestsFoodSports & FitnessTechScienceTravel
Hello! My name is Risa. I was born in Tokyo, so I speak standard Japanese. In my free time, I study physics as a student at the Open University in the UK and I also enjoy swimming and cooking. Especially, I love cooking cuisines from all over the world. Please share your country's dish recipes with me!
こんにちは、りさと申します。東京生まれです。2020年からitalkiで日本語を教えています。レッスンでは、私が先生という立場ながら、皆さんから色々な知識や経験をシェアしていただくことが多く、「私が生徒みたいだな〜！」と思う場面がよくあります（笑）。私も皆さんに日本の文化や面白い経験を伝えられるよう、日々頑張ります。
*Between 2020 and 2024, I donated the lesson fees from 300 of my classes to Malala Fund. Thank you so much for taking my classes!Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Japanese professionally since 2020. I completed the Japanese language education course online. I specialise in 1:1 classes and I have significant experience teaching intermediate students. I will work with pre-intermediate students who only speak everyday conversation and develop their range so that they can speak on different topics such as social problems, science and art.
My classes will be fun and relaxing and also focus on your progress. I believe in students studying proactively, not me telling students what to do. I am a facilitator rather than an instructor and I guide you in my classes while you work it out for yourself. My lessons & teaching style
If it is possible, I recommend using a textbook from my list and taking classes twice a week. The rate of improvement is quite different compared to once a week lessons! I give homework as much as you want and you can contact me on chat seven days a week at any time. So, don't leave the part you don't understand until the next lesson: ask me questions and accelerate your independent learning.

いつものようにリサ先生の授業はスピーキングに基づいています。授業前は、私の趣味と関する語彙を教えたり、スピーキングのトピックを提案したり、授業ではその新しい単語を使って話します。それで、教科書も使いますから、そこで書いてあるトピックについても話して。
リサ先生の授業を受けて、日本語で複雑なトピックについて話せるようになりました。それで、よく間違える文法はだんだん直していきます。

りさ先生、そろそろ2年前からレッスンを受け始めましたので、ありがとうございました！私は新型コロナウイルスのロックダウン中にレッスンを始めて、それ以来続けています。りさ先生の私にぴったりで、分からないことを説明してて、文法や会話や説明など色々なことを間違っているところを指摘してくれています。JLPT勉強の頃にも、JLPT特有の科目を練習しているとき、すべての質問はいつでも答えられます。これからもよろしくお願いします！

Thanks. This time we went over some text books focusing on moments when you want to tell your friend to stop doing something bothersome and some other grammar points. And like always Lisa tailors our lessons so they go smoothly
