Hello! I’m Seika, a professional Japanese teacher.
I was born and raised in Tokyo, so I speak standard Japanese.
I can speak English and Korean and am currently still learning these languages.
I really like learning new languages because it gives me a chance to find a new world.
Hence, I decided to teach Japanese to those who are interested in Japan, Japanese culture and Japanese language through italki.
Nice to meet you. I’m looking forward to talking with you!
안녕하세요! 세이카입니다.
저는 도쿄에서 나고 자라서 표준어로 이야기해요.
저는 대학생 때부터 한국어 공부하기 시작하고 지금 일상회화정도는 할 수 있게 되는데 그 과정이 정말 재미있고 행복한 시간이었어요. 그리고 재밌게 공부를 하는 방법도 찾았어요.
그래서 italki에서 저의 경험을 살려서 재밌게 일본어 공부할수 있는 수업을 하고 싶다고 생각했어요.
편하게 이야기하면서 재미있는 시간 같이 보내요~!!

My first class with Seika sensei was great! She tailored her speech to my level, and had prepared materials in advance to continue with where I had been learning with a previous tutor. She wrote all corrections in a Google document, and highlighted key points within the vocabulary and grammar we studied together. Her explanations are very clear, and she ensures I am speaking a lot during the class to build upon that skill. Her Korean and English abilities are also excellent. I'm so happy I found Seika sensei, and look forward to studying together. 今日はありがとうございました :)

아이토키에서 지금까지 총 4명의 선생님들과 수업 해봤는데, 그중에서 가장 맘에 드는 수업이라 패키지 끊고 정착했어요!!
친구같은 편안한 분위기, 몰랐거나 틀리게 쓴 단어 혹은 문법 실시간 피드백, 자연스러운 대화 유도 등 정말 만족합니다 ㅎㅎ
추가적으로 일본에서 쓰이는 단어나 말 등을 알려줘서 더 알아가는 게 많은 수업인 거 같아요!
무엇보다 한국어를 하실 수 있다는 게 가장 큰 장점! 수업은 일본어로 진행됩니다만 중간중간 모르는 단어를 한국어로 알려주셔서 더 확실히 알아갈 수 있어요 ㅎㅎ
先生今日もありがとうございました😉

Seika-san’s classes are always so much fun and informative. Student-teacher rapport and a comfortable learning environment are one of the most important things that affect learning and improvement. She does very well in providing these while also teaching you natural Japanese and appropriate usages. Top-tier teacher! いつもありがとうございます!

Seika先生 provides a lot of interesting materials, like helpful example sentences or worksheets matching the recourses we use or the topic we decided to talk about. It is very helpful for the understanding of the grammar but also it helps me to remember those patterns better. And it gives me chances to speak. Even though I am shy, I feel safe talking to Seika先生. I like that she is giving feedback. Often it is hard to see if there is an improvement so it is nice to hear it from your teacher.
She is very patient, even when I make stupid mistakes, she corrects it without giving me a bad feeling. Which is very important to me.

Seika is a very patient and friendly teacher, she never makes me feel uncomfortable when I have to think about something a bit longer or make mistakes. She always gives good hints and makes it so easy to have a conversation with her. She is always well prepared and gives very good advice for grammar problems. Which makes it way better to understand. You can tell she is putting a lot of effort to create helpful and good classes.

Today we we continued working on the goals for the end of the year and finalised them. Having a plan is always very motivating for me and make it sound doable, so am very happy that Seika先生 puts everything in a order. I like her teaching style, it is very helpful!
