多くの国を訪問し、文化や言葉の違いを学んできました。日本に興味のある人たちに日本語も教えてきました。オーストラリアでは、高校での日本語の授業にアシスタントとして働いていたこともあります。私自身も多言語を学んできたからこそ、異国語を学ぶことの難しさを知っています。分かりやすく、言葉を学ぶことに飽きない、楽しい授業をしていきたいと思います。 I have 4 years of experience working in various roles from language teacher in a one-on-one session to group session, culture, and travel advisor. I went above what was expected and made sure to promote each student’s comfort. I have a passion for elevating knowledge of culture and languages, and I am enthusiastic about getting to know each student and figuring out how best to serve their needs. I have worked one-on-one, and in group online settings as a language in Language School and culture teacher in an IT company.

Structure is 99%, but It’s Context That Makes It Real—Miss the Context, Miss the Meaning! I specialize in helping ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS to intermediate learners who feel STUCK or don’t know WHERE TO START. My lessons are LOGICAL and STRUCTURED, breaking Japanese into manageable pieces to build your confidence step by step. I know the struggles—particles, conjugations, て forms—but I’ll show you not just “what” to use, but “WHY” it works. My focus is on real-world applications: mastering casual conversations, expressing opinions, and understanding cultural nuances. Every mistake is a stepping stone. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and always tailored to your unique learning style.

Friendly &Flexible. にほんごをまなぼう、にほんごでまなぼう。 During my time in America, as a Teaching Assistant, I was teaching ‘history of cinema’ and practical ‘basic filmmaking ‘ to American college students. Also, I joined activities to teach Japanese culture and language to people. Since my returning to Japan, I have had many opportunities to interact with many local people from all over the world when I visit abroad for my job of movie making. Throughout these experiences, I have been feeling keenly about “the joy and difficulty of verbal communication. With this kind of experience, I can support and lead each student to learn Japanese language.

私は楽しく明るい雰囲気でレッスンをしたいと思っています。 必要な場合には、語彙を教えたり、訂正をしますが、丁寧に優しく伝えたいと思っています😁 私も今2つの言語を勉強しています。そのため日本語を学んでいるみなさんの努力や会話に伴う緊張がよくわかります。 レッスン中、必要な場合は話す速度を変えたり、一人一人の興味にできるだけ合わせて会話を作っていきたいと思っています。 我希望在轻松愉快的氛围进行我的课程。在必要时,我会教一些新的词汇并进行纠正,但我喜欢温和友善地进行😁。我自己也在学习两门语言,因此我非常理解学习日语的学生的付出的努力和对话时也许感到的紧张。在课程中,如果需要,我会调整说话速度,并尽量根据每个人的兴趣来来对话。 I want to conduct my lessons in a fun and cheerful atmosphere. When necessary, I will teach vocabulary and make corrections, but I will do so kindly and gently 😁. I am currently studying two languages myself, so I understand well the efforts and the anxiety that come with learning Japanese.
