Hi!
I was born and raised in Okinawa, Japan
Since I graduated from Uni, I've been working in a company connecting Japan and Europe.
I've been a pro kickboxer since I was 16 and I'm the Okinawa champion.
I'm good at coaching you on minute differences between Japanese and English in an easy way so You can logically understand step by step.
I love an anime and game

1) I've been a Japanese teacher at a college school in the US Air Force base in Japan.
2) My primary focus is to build vocabulary so students can boldly lead discussions, and speak fluently.
3) I've trained exchange students, engineers, college students, children, and so on.
4) I've also worked as a guesthouse staff and office worker in Japan, so I'm used to explaining Japanese culture and manners to tourists and expatriates :)
5) I was ever praised by my friends and students for my teaching methods.
As a result, most of my friends were able to pass the JLPT-N1 and N2 test with my support and some of them are working as skilled workers in Japan.My lessons & teaching style
◆I can do role-plays with you imagining various situations to improve your discussion ability.
◆My lessons vary from formal to informal and focus on real-life Japanese that you can't learn from any textbooks.
◆I make your writing skill more clear and natural for Japanese people.
(It'd be smooth if you can prepare your tentative text or something)
◆I quickly explain the grammar, vocabulary, and idiom using examples in an easy-to-understand way.
(I summarize your unlearned content in a notebook and send it to you after the lesson)
◆I give you homework based on "Minna no Nihongo," "GENKI" or every lesson to fill your weakness as required.My teaching material

I always have a great time in class and learn a lot. Ryoma makes the classes very interactive and is a great listener, making sure to correct any minor mistakes while encouraging further conversation. His English is very good and it's something you can always fall back on in case you forget a word or can't manage to say something correctly. I've been progressing greatly and will continue to take his class.

Ryoma san is a such a great teacher and I highly recommend him in regards to learning Japanese! Ryoma san is patient, kind and will give you the push you need with speaking Japanese. He gives clear and thorough explanations and catches you when you trip up (which is a lot in my case. haha) I am learning a lot working with him and look forward to my future lessons!!

Ryoma-san is great. He adapts easily to whatever you need and can understand the different issues a student has swiftly. He also knows his English and it makes it easier for us beginners to feel like we can express ourselves and get our message across. Great find!

Nothing but good things to say about his lessons!
Nice guy to chat to, his main focus with the current lessons are conversation based, he is very patient and goes through the grammar/ breaks down the sentences very well-!
Looking forward to future lessons with him- would definitely recommend!
