🔥One of italki’s “Most Popular This Week”╏🏆Top 20% of teachers by bookings ╏7 years╏🏅ASD / ADHD Support Certificate╏🏅Completed Phonetics Course╏🏫Teach at schools & companies 👩🏻‍💻About me Hello, I'm Natsu(なつ)! Call me Nattie. I am a certified Japanese language teacher with over 7 years of experience. I currently teach on italki, at online schools, and for companies. I also occasionally work as an examiner for Japanese speaking tests. When I was a child, the first book I asked my parents to buy was a book of world flags. That was the beginning of my interest in cultures and languages. Now, I’m happy to support people interested in Japan and the Japanese language. 💼Experience Currently, in addition to teaching Japanese, I am also involved in the planning of TV programs. I have experience working at a newspaper company and a design company. 🎯Strengths I am good at teaching Beginner & Intermediate grammar. If you know grammar but struggle to speak, we can also practice conversation while reviewing grammar together! I studied phonetics at university, and I continue studying linguistics and Japanese education to improve my lessons. 📚Lessons  ★1-on-1 Lessons   ├─ Interactive Conversation   ├─ General Japanese (Grammar)   ├─ JLPT   └─ and more!  ★Group Classes *Minimum class size: 1 student   ├─ Mystery Games   ├─ Dialects Quiz   ├─ Traditional Events   └─ and more!   📍Details are at the bottom.   💡Recommended for fun, different lessons. 📩If you are even a little interested, feel free to try a lesson!

Having had lessons with other tutors who mostly offered a free conversation format, I was looking for somebody who had higher qualifications and could teach grammar in detail. I was pleasantly surprised in my trial lesson because she seemed very well prepared, she has lots of activities to offer. I was a little nervous because she doesn't speak English, so not having English to fall back to was a little scary but she is really good at understanding what I mean even when I'm not able to form the sentence I want. Her speech feels very clear, I was even surprised because of how well I manage to understand her despite the occasional word I need to search in the dictionary. On top of her skills as a teacher, she is very nice to talk to and I feel very safe talking to her. So far I have taken a trial lesson and a grammar lesson and I'm very happy with how much she's already managed to teach me. I'm very excited and I'm looking forward to continue learning with her. Thank you so much!

단순히 읽고 답하지 않고, 자유롭게 생각하며 말할 수 있게 수업을 하셔서 재미있고 적극적으로 참여하게 됩니다.

잘하지 못하는데 편안하게 이끌어주셔서 너무 재밌게 수업받았습니다 전에 다른곳에서 화상수업한적이 있었는데 잘못하고 어려워서 불편했던 적이 있어서 화상수업에 좋지않은 인상이 있었는데 너무 젛은 선생님을 뵙것 같아 기쁘고 다시 열심히 할 용기가 생겼습니다 꾸준히 수업할 계획입니다 ☺️

She always chooses materials that are just perfect for me. For example, today my lesson was about imperatives, and we read common signs that used imperatives that I might see on my up coming trip to Japan. My lesson with Conatsu is always fun, and I learn so much!

선생님께서 처음부터 끝까지 정말 친절하게 수업을 진행해 주셔서 편안한 분위기에서 즐겁게 공부할 수 있었습니다. 제가 일본어로 말할 때 천천히 기다려 주시고, 자연스럽게 대화를 이어갈 수 있도록 잘 이끌어 주셔서 틀릴까 봐 부담을 느끼기보다는 편하게 말해 볼 수 있었어요. 수업 내내 분위기도 밝고 재미있어서 시간이 정말 빨리 지나갔습니다. 실제로 대화를 나누면서 일본어를 사용하고 있다는 느낌이 들어서 특히 좋았습니다. 선생님께서 반응도 잘해 주시고 친절하게 설명해 주셔서 일본어 공부를 더 열심히 해 보고 싶다는 생각도 들었습니다. 오늘 수업 정말 즐거웠고, 다음에도 꼭 다시 수업을 듣고 싶습니다. 감사합니다!
