Not accepting new students (60min→55min/45min→40min/30min→25min) As a teacher, I try to ✔︎ be academically well-informed / flexible / patient / honest / friendly ✔︎ have my students talk as much as possible (instead of me talking) ✔︎ use flipped classroom strategies (input at home, output in class) ✔︎ use Japanese as much as possible ✔︎ always review the previous lesson ✔︎ be (very) strict with pronunciation (らりるれろ, devoicing of vowels, mora lengths and pitch-accent) and most importantly: ✔︎ give meaningful feedback ✔︎ translate what the students want to say into easy & simple Japanese sentences - so that they can use it the next time! I also teach English to local students in my hometown in Ibaraki prefecture (an hour away from Tokyo by train).

I have been teaching Japanese for the past 4 years, and have helped my students at all levels - basic to advanced. My classes are usually conversation-based and customised to my students' language needs, whether it be grammar, idioms, vocabulary, or pronunciation. If you have something specific you need to prepare for, such as an upcoming interview, presentation or JLPT exams, I can definitely help you with that! I am also happy to answer any questions you have about material you are learning in other Japanese classes or by yourself, and help with document editing/proofreading. I want my classes to be relaxed, casual and hopefully have a bit of fun conversation! (Sorry, no child students)

Japanese package lessons currently up to 35% off! I loveアニメAnime,漫画Manga and かわいいkawaii!( ´∀`)bグッ! I've studied abroad in Oxford for 9 months and I've got the B2 level certificate at the school. My husband is British so I speak English everyday. I'm sure my English will improve soon. When I was in England as a student, I felt lots of people are interested in Japanese. They asked me pronunciations, some Japanese words, culture and so on. I was so glad to hear that. Also, my husband and their friends are keen on Japanese Anime. My hobbies are watching Anime and reading Manga so I have lots of opportunity to teach Japanese things in Japanese. Thanks to such great encounters, I decided to become a tutor.
