こんにちは、日本語教育のプロ、マリです。私は10年以上にわたり日本語教育の現場で指導を続けてきました。その中で培った「自然な会話力」の養成や、「JLPT対策」、そして「ビジネス日本語」指導のノウハウを活かし、学習者の皆さま一人ひとりの目標達成を全力でサポートしています。レッスンでは、学習者のレベルや目的に合わせて最適な指導方法を提案し、実践的で楽しい学びの場を提供することを大切にしています。また、アニメや旅行などの趣味もレッスンに取り入れ、より身近で使える日本語を身につけていただけるよう工夫しています。日本語力を本気で伸ばしたい方、ぜひ私と一緒に学びましょう。皆さまの夢や目標の実現に向けて、誠心誠意サポートいたします。 I am a kind, responsible and patient teacher. My more than 10 years of experience as a Japanese teacher have allowed me to create a fast and efficient method for students to learn Japanese. I understand that every students is different and that each student has different goals and capabilities. I aim to use each lesson as an opportunity to help you improve your language skills, but still personalize the lesson to your capabilities. I will always try my best to assist each student in the vest way possible. The first step is to know the student's goals. Once we know the student's level, we will develop a study plan to help the student achieve his/her short- and long-term goals. Classes are conducted 100% in Japanese, and the main focus is on developing the student's speaking ability. Lessons can be purely conversational or tailor-made to provide activities to deepen grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. I have also prepared hundreds of students for the JLPT. My teaching style is fun and an exciting, yet rigorous approach to helping students achieve their goals. Let's work hard together!

Wonderful as always! I tried out a quick 30 minute session to see how I felt about it, and it was such a nice little snippet. We did a few minutes of conversation work, and then a brief lesson. I still felt like I learned a lot in that time frame!
