【お知らせ/NOTICE】
2月末から4月末までの2か月間、アメリカにいる予定です！
アメリカでもレッスンはしますが、スケジュールの時間が変わります（日本時間→アメリカの時間（PST））。5月からは日本に戻る予定ですので、スケジュールもこれまで通り日本時間に戻ります。
ご理解のほどよろしくお願いいたします🙇🏻
I’ll be in the United States for about two months, from the end of February to the end of April!
I will continue teaching lessons while I’m in the U.S., but the schedule will change from Japan time to U.S. time (PST). I plan to return to Japan in May, and the schedule will go back to Japan time as usual. I appreciate your understanding 🙇🏻
こんにちは！Hi! I’m Emi, a native Japanese speaker from Japan. I studied English literature and Japanese linguistics at a university in Kyoto and help learners speak Japanese naturally. 🗣️👍✨Me as a Teacher
私は高校や大学で留学生に日本語を教えてきました。この経験を通して、私は日本語学習者の皆さんにとって日本語を身につけることがどれほど大変なことなのかを知りました。
私は皆さんのペースに合わせて日本語を話します。わからないところは皆さんにちゃんと理解してもらえるまで丁寧にゆっくり説明します。私がなんていったかわからなかった箇所は他の日本語で言い換えるか、英語で言い換えることもできます。
I have taught international students Japanese at high school and university. Through this experience, I realized how hard it was for Japanese learners to acquire the ability to speak Japanese.
I will speak Japanese at your level. When you have something you don’t understand, I will explain kindly until you truly understand. I can rephrase what I said using plain Japanese or English if you want. My lessons & teaching style
私のレッスンは会話が中心です。
初級者から上級者まで歓迎します！
不自然な言い回しや発音、文法的なミスがあったら、指摘し訂正します。
リラックスした雰囲気のレッスンなので、間違いを恐れず、むしろたくさん間違えてくれてOKです^ ^
私はレッスン中たくさんチャットにメモを残すので、復習してください。知識を定着させ、それを活かしてくれれば皆さんの日本語はみるみる上達しますよ！(^^♪
My lessons will be mainly free conversation.
I'll welcome all-level learners!
Whenever you say unnatural expressions, mis-pronounce, or make grammatical mistakes, I'll point out and correct them.
The atmosphere in my lesson is very relaxing, so please don’t be afraid of making mistakes! Or rather, it's okay to make many mistakes! ^ ^
I'll take many notes in the chat during a lesson, so please review what you've learned. If you retain knowledge and make use of it, your Japanese will rapidly improve!My teaching material

どうもありがとう for レッスン 150! Thank you for being a 素晴らしい先生, エミさん!
I'm very happy that I found my way to your classroom, almost 2 years ago! All the progress I've made with my Japanese studies has been thanks to you and our 楽しい lessons together.
Let's hit 200 before the end of the year! がんばって!

This teacher is really fantastic. She will often point out things that you do that sound non-native, so you can perfect your linguistic ability and sound more like a native Japanese. It is hard to find a teacher that points such things out. I definitely recommend this teacher.

Great lesson with Emi! We reviewed the workbook on ~ので that I did, and practiced that grammar point. We also learned the next grammar point "need to" and practiced it. Emi told me some interesting things about kanji and reminded me how to distinguish katakana ソ from ン. Emi always happily answers my questions and helps me understand!

Every lesson with Emi-san is full of laughter and I feel really accomplished when we finish. We are now having bits of conversation in simple Japanese, something I wasn't sure I'd ever been able to do, and it's all thanks to her enthusiasm and niceness that motivates me to keep up studying.
