I’m Tama, your Japanese teacher. 標準語（東京弁）で、ビジネス日本語やJLPT対策を専門に教えています。I specialize in Business Japanese and JLPT prep using standard Tokyo dialect. 世界46か国を旅して、多文化の魅力を発見しました。I’ve explored 46 countries, gaining unique cultural perspectives. バレエやウクレレで「楽しく学ぶ」ことの大切さを体験！Through ballet and ukulele, I value learning with joy and creativity. あなたの目標に合わせて、楽しく日本語を学びましょう！Let’s enjoy learning Japanese together, tailored to your goals! 2020年（ねん）に検定試験（けんていしけん）に合格（ごうかく）しました。 I passed the exam in 2020 and became a qualified Japanese teacher. 2024年（ねん）から日本語学校（にほんごがっこう）でも教（おし）えています。 Since 2024, I have also been teaching Japanese at a Japanese language school. 2017年（ねん）から、国際交流協会（こくさいこうりゅうきょうかい）でボランティアの日本語（にほんご）の先生（せんせい）をしています。 I have been teaching Japanese since 2017 as a volunteer at an international association. 私（わたし）は勉強（べんきょう）を始（はじ）め、2020年（ねん）に検定試験（けんていしけん）に合格（ごうかく）し、本格的（ほんかくてき）な日本語教師（にほんごきょうし）になりました。 I started studying and passed the exam in 2020 and became a qualified Japanese teacher. 2024年（ねん）から日本語学校（にほんごがっこう）でも教（おし）えています。 Since 2024, I have also been teaching Japanese at a Japanese language school. 私（わたし）と一緒（いっしょ）に楽（たの）しく日本語（にほんご）を勉強（べんきょう）しましょう。 Let's enjoy studying Japanese with me! 私は基本的に日本語（にほんご）で教（おし）えます。 I basically teach in Japanese. 簡単（かんたん）な英語（えいご）を使（つか）って説明（せつめい）することができます。 If you wish, I will explain in simple English. レッスンでリクエストがあれば、いつでも気軽に（きがる）にお知（し）らせください。 Please feel free to contact me and let me know your lesson requests.

I am always motivated to do better because of Tama Sensei. She makes learning fun and challenging at the same time. I like to be challenged, so this is great! I have much work to do, but I have faith that I will do well!

Tama is an excellent teacher, I highly recommend her! I have been taking lessons for a while now, and I am doing it as a hobby, so I am slow. She is very patient and works with me so I understand all the concepts and vocabulary. I look forward to my lesson every time!

タマ先生ありがとうございます！I enjoyed reading the story today. I learned so many new vocabulary words. I cannot believe that we have finished our first textbook together. That is exciting. Thank you for always being so patient with me and I am grateful for your guidance. See you next class :)
