To maximise your lesson time, I may ask you to start our lesson a few minutes early or a few minutes late if I have 2 lessons in a row without any break. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. m(_ _)m

みなさん、こんにちは。麻衣子（まいこ）です。
私（わたし）は大阪（おおさか）に住（す）んでいます。大阪（おおさか）で生（う）まれ育（そだ）ちました。
オーストラリアで10ヶ月間（かげつかん）、アイルランドで1年間（ねんかん）英語（えいご）を勉強（べんきょう）しました。
私（わたし）は旅行（りょこう）、ハイキング、読書（どくしょ）、映画（えいが）やアニメを見（み）るのが好（す）きです。
Hey everyone. I’m Maiko.
I live in Osaka, born and raised.
I have studied English in Australia for 10 months and Ireland for a year.
I like traveling, hiking, reading books, watching movies and Anime.Me as a Teacher
私（わたし）は日本語教師養成講座（にほんごきょうしようせいこうざ）を修了（しゅうりょう）しています。
アイルランドに留学中（りゅうがくちゅう）は言語交換（げんごこうかん）をしていました。
私（わたし）は一人一人（ひとりひとり）の様々（さまざま）な目標（もくひょう）に適（てき）したレッスンを心（こころ）がけています。
違（ちが）う言語（げんご）を学（まな）ぶのは大変（たいへん）です。だからこそリラックスして楽（たの）しく学（まな）びましょう！
I completed the official "Teaching Japanese as a Foreign Language 420 hours course".
When I studied abroad in Ireland, I took part in language exchange.
I always try to customise each student's lesson based on their goals.
Learning a different language is not easy, that's why I think it's important to learn in a fun and relaxed manner!My lessons & teaching style
私（わたし）のレッスンは会話（かいわ）が中心（ちゅうしん）です。趣味（しゅみ）や生活（せいかつ）のこと、日本語（にほんご）の文法（ぶんぽう）や発音（はつおん）、敬語（けいご）など何（なん）でも好（す）きなことを話（はな）しましょう。
また、教科書（きょうかしょ）『みんなの日本語初級ⅠとⅡ』『中級から学ぶ日本語』を持（も）っていればれば、それらを使用（しよう）することもできますので、学（まな）びたい課（か）を教（おし）えてください。
もし大阪（おおさか）に興味（きょうみ）があれば、大阪弁（おおさかべん）のレッスンもありますよ。
My main lesson is “Conversation” . Let’s talk about hobbies, daily-life, Japanese grammar, pronunciation, polite language and whatever you want.
Also, I can use the textbooks “Minna no Nihongo 1 and 2” and “Cyukyu kara manabu Nihongo” so if you have those textbooks, please let me know what lesson you want to study.
If you are interested in Osaka, there is Osaka-dialect-lesson as well.My teaching material

This is the review for my 100th lesson with 麻衣子さん over a year and a half. In that time I have studied everything from sonkeigo and kenjyougo for formal conversations such as visiting Ryokan to casual conversation and Osaka dialect.
Through all those lessons 麻衣子さん has been consistently patient, well prepared and a delight to talk to and I have always looked forward to each lesson.
Having started as a beginner having come from from two other classes during my time in college 麻衣子さん assessed my abilities and weaknesses in a nonjudgmental way, allowing me to pick up right where I left off and alway improve my speaking ability.
Out of 100 lessons 麻衣子さん has been ready on time 100% of the time. I could not recommend anyone else more highly to guide you on your Japanese journey.

Another awesome lesson with まいこ先生！Time just flies in lessons with her! You are so safe to make mistakes, and まいこ先生 easily and so readily customizes the lesson to your needs and interests. As always, already looking forward to next time! ありがとうございました。
