I believe that everyone has their own reason for wanting to learn Japanese—whether it’s to learn about the culture, use it for work, or study abroad. Drawing on the language and communication skills I developed as an international flight attendant, I strive to quickly understand each student’s needs and offer lesson plans that match their level and goals.
However, in any class, I place the most importance on giving students time to actively participate and express themselves. I want to help as many people as possible experience the joy of communicating their thoughts in a foreign language and the satisfaction of being understood. My lessons & teaching style
For beginner students I can use English o Spanish , but for those who want to increase their chances of listening to Japanese, even a direct method is available. I have worked with many kind of textbooks, Minano nihongo, Marugoto,Tsunagunihongo, etc... I am sure that we can find out the best way of learning japanese for you!
Si quieres dar clases en español o inglés, podemos. Si prefieres dar todo en japonés, ¡también! He trabajado con muchos tipos de materiales , por ejemplo, Marugoto, Minnanonihongo, Genki, entre otros. ¡Seguro que encontraremos un método más apropiado para tu nivel y objetivo!My teaching material

It was a great lesson. Rina is really friendly. She explains grammar well and in an easy way. Also she challenges me so there’s a good balance in her lessons.

I'm super rusty but was able to follow along with how clearly my teacher spoke. I look forward to getting back into Japanese study. 楽しみにしています。

I just started lessons with Rina and have enjoyed them so far. I appreciate that the lesson is completely in Japanese as it helps with both my listening comprehension and speaking skills. The materials are on level and I know she will help me further my skills over time

Llevo teniendo clases con Rina-sensei desde hace casi 9 meses y siento que he aprendido muchísimo con ella. En cada clase dedicamos tiempo a practicar listening, conversación, nuevo vocabulario/kanjis y píldoras de gramática. Son clases supercompletas que se me pasan volando, porque su manera de ser y su manera de explicar animan a cualquier alumno. Siempre prepara material muy interesante que permite, además de aprender japonés, aprender sobre su cultura.
Espero seguir aprendiendo con su ayuda durante mucho tiempo :)
