Me as a Teacher

I have been teaching Japanese to non-Japanese people since 1995. These years I have been assigned to academic writing classes at universities in Osaka, so I can help you write passages such as essays. Meanwhile I have practiced foreign languages such as English, Spanish, Korean and recently Chinese. I believe I have tips to offer from my learning experiences. I also have taught more than 1900 lessons at italki as of April 2025, which has helped me to improve my teaching online.

My lessons & teaching style

I keep my comments to a minimum and let you speak as much as possible. I first use pictures, mimes and Japanese in my lessons, before I explain things in English. I encourage my students to prepare for lessons and review them. I will work together with you to find a way to make your lesson beneficial and comfortable for YOU. I am here to listen to your needs and customize our session to fit those.
