After I graduated, I was working as a Japanese TA in the US for 3 years.
As a TA, in addition to leading weekly lectures, I organized drill classes (conversation classes), graded quizzes and assignments, and held frequent help sessions for students in need of help or who want additional study material.
Through my experience in the US, I learned that the most crucial aspects of a successful teacher are Knowledge, Skill, Personality/Philosophy.
I work closely with my students to correct their mistakes and my work experience in addition to my intricate knowledge of Japanese grammar and skill will make learning Japanese fun and rewarding!My lessons & teaching style

I want you to be able to control Japanese grammar and be confident when you speak Japanese.

I made some sentences in class today and it was great! Ikumi-sensei's teaching method is different from other ones I have encountered and it really works for me. I can see how I am improving, because I can actually understand why I do things rather than just doing them! Thank you Ikumi-sensei!

I enjoyed the flow of the lesson very much. She knows how to find a way to connect with the students and she can provide feedback by the end of the lesson very very well. Excellent!

いくみ is very friendly and professional, I had a good practice even though the time was short, but I have already learned interesting things. We reviewed the particles and I practiced in building some sentences. The word order is very different both from English and Chinese so I'm getting hold of it. 今日ぼくは家で食べます. 私はお父さんとレストランにいきます。
ありがとうございました育美せんせい、またね。
