「日本語ペラペラになりたい」を叶えます!日常会話を楽しく!まずは日本語をたくさん話しましょう♪ こんにちは!大阪在住のYumiです。 日本語を話したい人に向けて会話中心のレッスンをしています。 「語彙や文法を勉強して知ってるはずなのに、いざ日本人と話すと聴き取れなかったり、口から言葉が出てこなかったりする…」そんな悩みはありませんか? 私のレッスンでは、日常会話や好きな話題についてたくさん話す練習ができます。普段勉強している日本語を試して、一緒にお喋りしましょう! 私は人から新しい話を聞くのが大好きなので、いろいろなトピックで話すことができます。ぜひ、あなたの好きなことを教えてください。 実は私、子供のころは人と話すのが苦手で、他人の目を気にして言いたいことが言えませんでした。 でも高校生になって住む場所が変わり、色々な人と繋がるうちに話すのが楽しくなりました。今は一人で海外旅行へ行き、現地の人との出会いを楽しんでいます。言葉が完璧でなくても、ジェスチャーや少しの英語で伝える嬉しさは格別です! 「日本語で言いたいことが伝わった!」という嬉しさを、ぜひあなたにも知ってもらいたいです。日本語ペラペラを目指して楽しく話しましょう♪ 【私のレッスンの特徴】 言葉だけでなく、日本人と自然にコミュニケーションをとるためのコツをお伝えします。大阪出身なので、関西弁や大阪ならではのコミュニケーションの仕方も教えられますよ! 【テキスト不要のフリートーク中心】 基本的にテキストは使いません。日本語の語順で話し、分からない単語だけ英語を使ったりジェスチャーを交えたりするので、初心者の方も安心してください。会話の中からあなたの苦手を見つけ、効率よく上達できるようサポートします。 【テキストを使用したレッスンもOK】 *「いろどり」(無料ダウンロード可能なテキスト) *「新完全マスター文法 N2」(※こちらのテキストを使用する場合は、生徒さんご自身で同じ本をご用意いただく必要があります) *ビジネス会話など、ご希望に応じたレッスンが可能です。 テキストを暗記するより早く、あなたに必要な言葉やコミュニケーションが身につきます。日本語が話せるようになって、あなたの生活がもっと豊かになったら嬉しいです。一緒に頑張りましょう! ◆ レッスンに関するお願い(Cancellation Policy)◆ 皆さんと気持ちよくレッスンを続けるため、またお互いの時間を大切にするため、以下の点にご理解をお願いいたします。 事前連絡のない無断キャンセル(No-Show)や、直前のキャンセルにつきましては、レッスン料金の100%を頂戴しております。 ★ About No-Show: 100% charge will apply. ★ 關於未出現課堂(No-Show):將收取 100% 的費用。 ご理解とご協力をよろしくお願いいたします!

Absolute beginners are welcome😊 Let's study Japanese language and the culture behind it together! Born in Tokyo and raised in Kanagawa, I now call Oregon home after moving from Japan a few years ago. As an intercultural communication specialist (BA & MA), I love bridging cultures through language—especially with beginners! When not teaching, I’m baking, binge-watching shows, sewing, or traveling. I love animals (I have 6 fur babies), and your pets are welcome to join lessons anytime to make learning relaxed and fun. Let’s explore Japanese language *and* culture together! 東京生まれ、神奈川育ち、数年前からオレゴン在住です。国際文化学専攻(学士・修士)の経験を活かし、初心者にも優しく日本語と文化を教えています。レッスン以外ではお菓子作りや旅行、Netflix鑑賞をしていることが多いです。動物が好きなので(6匹飼っています)、ペットと一緒にレッスンに参加するのも大歓迎です!リラックスした雰囲気で、一緒に楽しく学びましょう! I started teaching Japanese in 2013 as a volunteer in my hometown, and completed all the requirements of the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in 2020. I have met people from more than 30 countries through this teaching career so far and I really enjoy teaching the language and the culture. 2013年に地元でボランティア講師として日本語を教え始め、2020年に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。日本語を教えることを通じて今まで30カ国以上の人に出会い、日本語と日本の文化を教えることをとても楽しんでいます。 Because italki is mainly for private lessons, I would like to focus on what and how the students want to study. I think studying Japanese in Japanese is a bit too hard sometimes (especially for beginners), so I would love to help students by using English if needed. If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to message me. For the cancellation policy, please check the lesson booking page.

I work as a professional narrator! 나레이터로 일하고 있습니다! ナレーターや記者として働いていますので、きれいな発音(はつおん)と正(ただ)しいイントネーション、より相手(あいて)に伝(つた)わりやすく、魅力的(みりょくてき)な日本語の文章(ぶんしょう)を学(まな)びたい方(かた)はぜひ私と勉強しましょう! 私の授業はすべて日本語で行(おこな)いますので、より早(はや)く日本語に慣(な)れることができると思います☆ ―――――――――― I work as a narrator, so if you want to learn correct pronunciation and intonation, let's study with me! I also work as a writer, so I think I can teach you more attractive and easy to understand Japanese. I'll do all the classes in Japanese, so I think you will be able to get used to Japanese faster☆ ―――――――――― 저는 기자나 내레이터로서도 일을 하고 있기 때문에 더욱더 정확한 발음과 억양, 더욱더 전달하기 쉽고 매력적인 일본어를 가르쳐 줄 수 있다고 생각해요! 제 수업은 모두 일본어로 진행하기 때문에, 더 빨리 일본어에 익숙해질 수 있을거에요☆ 하지만 간단한 한국어는 가능하기 때문에, 초보자도 편하게 신청해 주세요^^

I have started teaching as a teaching assistant in Japanese classes when I was going to college. For the last 20 years, I've been helping new employees to get adjusted to their lives in Japan. Teaching basic Japanese was one of the support I was providing. I have helped my friends to pass JLPT. I have also supported foreign tourists as a volunteer guide in Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima. Therefore, I am confident that I can support beginner level students well. I love seeing their smiles when they were able to use the language that they learned with locals. That’s the best thing when you are learning a new language. We will talk a lot in my class. That's the best way to gain confidence.
