Most Japanese kids lessons taught on italki! Licensed kindergarten teacher *:) I was working as a kindergarten teacher for three years after I graduated college. After that, I lived in the US for two years to learn English. I have experience as working at a Japanese language school and teaching Japanese language to private students. I've been a professional teacher for eight years. English is my second language, so I can empathize with others who are also learning a new language. 日本では大学卒業後、幼稚園教諭として3年間の経験があり子どもの拙い日本語を優しく指導してきました。そして英語を学ぶ為、渡米し二年間コロラド州に住んでいました。現地の日本語学校での職務経験とフリーランスとして多数の生徒たちに日本語を指導してきましたので、プロの講師としては8年目になります。英語は私の母国語ではないので、私も他言語を学んだ一人として、他言語を学ぶ人の気持ちがよくわかります。

I am certified to teach Japanese and currently teach at a language school in Taiwan and for private students. I teach general Japanese, business Japanese as well as exam preparation for JLPT, to students from various backgrounds. Some of my students started to learn with me from Hiragana, the most basic letters in this language, and some others are advanced learners who are required to use Japanese for their jobs. I am so happy for what my students and I are doing together to improve their skills, and having good time in each class.

日本語ゼロでも大丈夫! 一緒に勉強しましょう。Don' t worry even if you are a beginner. I taught some elementary school students who came to Japan and didn't know Japanese at all. I taught them from Hiragana,greetings and also told them about life style in Japan. I was by their side and also supported school lessons. And I taught some International students how to prepare for JLPT. They enjoyed studying with quizzes I made. Now I teach some American students who have returned to America. 私は日本語ゼロで日本に住むことになった小学生に日本語を教えました。ひらがなや挨拶から始まり、日本での生活についても話しました。彼らのそばについて学校の授業のサポートもしました。 また、大学の留学生にJLPT対策のクイズを作り、楽しくクイズをしながらJLPTの勉強を教えました。 今、アメリカに戻ったアメリカの学生に日本語を教えています。

Frequently Asked Question

What age group do italki Japanese tutors teach?

italki Japanese tutors teach a wide range of age groups, from young children (typically starting around age 3) to teenagers and adults. They tailor their lessons to meet the specific needs, interests, and learning styles of each age group. For younger learners, tutors often use interactive methods, such as games and songs, to make the lessons engaging and enjoyable. For older students, they may focus on more structured lessons that include grammar, vocabulary, and conversation practice. This flexibility allows italki tutors to effectively support learners at any stage of their Japanese language journey.

Do I need to purchase specific materials for lessons?

Most italki Japanese tutors provide their own teaching materials, including worksheets, exercises, and digital resources, which are tailored to the specific needs of their students. However, some tutors may recommend additional supplementary materials or resources to enhance the learning experience, especially if there are specific goals or areas of focus. It’s a good idea to discuss any required or suggested materials with your tutor before starting lessons to ensure you have everything needed for effective learning. Overall, you typically won’t need to purchase specific materials upfront, as your tutor will guide you on what is necessary.

How often should my child attend lessons?

The frequency of lessons for your child can vary based on their individual learning goals, schedule, and preferences. Generally, it’s recommended that children attend lessons at least once a week to maintain consistent progress and retention of what they learn. However, some students may benefit from more frequent sessions, such as two to three times a week, especially if they are preparing for a specific event or exam.

Ultimately, the best approach is to discuss your child’s needs with their tutor. Together, you can create a schedule that balances regular practice with their other commitments, ensuring they remain engaged and motivated while learning Japanese. Regular communication with the tutor will also help assess progress and adjust the frequency of lessons as needed.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

To determine if your child is making progress in their Japanese lessons, consider the following methods:

1. Regular Feedback from the Tutor: Most tutors provide ongoing feedback about your child’s performance. They can share insights on improvements, areas that need more attention, and specific skills that have developed over time.

2. Assessment Tests: Some tutors may conduct periodic assessments or quizzes to gauge your child’s understanding of the material. These can help track progress in areas like vocabulary, grammar, and speaking skills.

3. Progress Reports: Many tutors offer progress reports that summarize what your child has learned, highlighting strengths and identifying areas for further development. This can provide a clear picture of their advancement.

4. Skill Demonstration: Encourage your child to demonstrate what they have learned. This could include simple conversations, reading aloud, or writing short paragraphs in Japanese. Their ability to communicate effectively can indicate progress.

5. Increased Confidence and Engagement: Notice any changes in your child’s attitude toward learning Japanese. Increased enthusiasm, willingness to participate in lessons, and a desire to practice outside of class are good signs of progress.

6. Retention of Knowledge: Ask your child to recall previous lessons or vocabulary. If they can remember and use what they’ve learned, it suggests they are making meaningful progress.

By maintaining open communication with both your child and their tutor, you can stay informed about their learning journey and celebrate their achievements along the way.

Can lessons be conducted in English?

Yes, many italki tutors are fluent in English and can conduct lessons in English, especially for younger learners or beginners who may need additional support. This bilingual approach can help explain complex concepts, vocabulary, and grammar rules in a way that is easier for your child to understand.

Using English as a support language can make the learning process smoother and more comfortable, allowing students to gradually transition into using more Japanese as they become more confident. However, the primary focus will still be on learning Japanese, ensuring that your child develops their language skills effectively. It’s a good idea to discuss language preferences with your tutor before starting lessons to ensure they can accommodate your child’s needs.
