About Me

italki teacher since Aug 5, 2021

Hello! My name is Makoto! It is very nice to meet you. A little bit about myself, I am originally from Osaka, Japan, but I went to the United States for university and studied Theater Arts. I am friendly, fun-loving and patient so please do not worry about making mistakes as that is a part of learning! I also believe learning a new language can be so much fun so I am very excited to learn with you. I would be more than happy to do various lessons based on your goals, needs and interest. For example, we can focus on conversational skills and phrases to pronunciation.

Me as a Teacher

Ever since I got back from the States, I have been teaching English to Japanese people both in-person and online. I always try to make the learning as fun, painless and productive as possible as a teacher. I myself learned English from zero so I totally understand how challenging (and fun) it can be to learn a new language. However, talking from my experience, by being able to speak English made my world much bigger. I am very passionate about education in general!

My lessons & teaching style

I would like to do a lot of conversation practice and pronunciation practice through free talk. I would be happy to teach you phrasing etc. as well. I offer lesson on my dialect(Kansai dialect) too! I am sure that being able to carry a smooth conversation will be a great asset for you! Since I speak both English and Japanese, I can assist Japanese people in Japanese when teaching them English and vice versa. Please let me know what you prefer! I am looking forward to it!
