Living in Tokyo, Japan

Hello, my name is Kaori. I am originally from Japan, but have been living in beautiful Istanbul, Turkey for the past 14 years. When I moved to Turkey, the only Turkish word I knew was “Merhaba”, which means “hello”. But now I can speak Turkish fluently. Turkish people love to communicate with others so it makes my life more fun! I can also speak Japanese, English, Russian, Turkish sign language and Farsi. I enjoy traveling, visiting museums, listening to music, playing the guitar and painting. I also love cats so living in Istanbul is great as there are many friendly cats that share the streets and parks with people here. I have experience teaching Japanese at several language schools in Istanbul as well as teaching students privately. I have taught beginner students as well as advanced students who were interested in learning conversation. In my lesson we will learn grammar based on a text book called, “Minna no Nihongo”, including hiragana, katakana, and kanji. However, if you are not interested in reading or writing Japanese, I can also teach using the Latin alphabet. I will also teach you conversational Japanese and we will practice everyday conversation. If you are studying towards the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test-JLPT, I can also help you with this.

Kaorisan is a great conversationalist and she always teaches me so much during our talks. She also is great at explaining complex grammar, both in Japanese and Turkish.

It was quite fun. We had a conversation about various topics and interests. I feel like I am getting more confident in my speaking and listening abilities.
