Top 1% Japanese Teacher! Learn to Speak Like a Local with a Native Teacher As a language teacher, I aim to be patient, engaging, and motivating, and focus on making the student feel confident when speaking in Japanese. I know that studying Japanese is not easy. And I love to help people chase their dream of speaking Japanese fluently. I would like to teach you without the use of any textbooks because those are so different from what we actually use in real conversation. So I would love to focus on improving your conversation skills by providing you with slang, useful phrases, and more of what we actually use.

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. During lessons, if needed, I will adjust my speaking speed and try to tailor the conver

Japanese language and culture in a casual way ✌ Up until now, I have been teaching for more than two years now and I really enjoy it. I have premade lessons that I use for teaching, but of course, I can organize lessons to one's wishes. In my lessons, I try to use as many as possible different resources for learning and I can promise you that a class with me won't be boring. I'm trying to be professional as much as possible, but I would like to create a relaxed atmosphere so that we can learn with a smile on our faces.
