🌸𓅹 Discover your voice in Japanese, guided by its sound, structure, and spirit 🪷𓀠 I specialize in Japanese pitch accent, guiding learners to master high and low tones naturally. Lessons cover long vowels, nasal sounds, devoiced vowels, and rhythm patterns that influence speech flow. I provide clear, detailed explanations while encouraging active exploration and listening. I also emphasize cultural and spiritual aspects, including etiquette, mindfulness, and the subtle ways respect is expressed in speech. Each lesson balances technical guidance with meaningful understanding, helping learners grow as speakers and as observers of Japanese life and thought. 𓅗 2025.11.25.

Build strong Japanese skills, step by step 🎯 As a teacher, I focus on helping learners truly understand Japanese, not just memorize rules. Many learners tell me that Japanese grammar feels confusing, especially when learning in English. I explain grammar points clearly in English when needed, and then guide you to use them naturally in Japanese. Because I’ve taught for many years, I can adjust explanations and pacing depending on how you learn best. I aim to create a calm, supportive atmosphere where you feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. I also work as a trainer for native Japanese teachers, which helps me stay mindful of teaching quality and clarity in every lesson.

Relaxed, soft-spoken, detailed. 平易近人,轻松,详细 2023日本語教育能力検定試験合格 As a community teacher, I think I’m best suited for your native Japanese conversation practice partner. With this said, I’m now learning the type of Japanese grammar useful for foreign students so that I can answer your basic grammar questions. I believe in the importance of output and repeated practice. So, in my class, I encourage you to relax and speak much, while to master the stuff you’ve learned by repetition and frequent review. 刚开始当老师,我应该适合当你的日语会话练习伙伴。对于日语语法针对外国学习者的,我在天天学习。已经学过的,我会随机分享给你的 我相信练习和复习很重要。所以在我的课程中,我会一边鼓励你轻松随便多多讲,同时也会鼓励你重复练习,又复习学过的。这样知识会根深蒂固吧 あたらしいせんせいのわたしは、かいわのれんしゅうの あいてに よいとおもいます。がいこくじんむけの ぶんぽうも まいにち べんきょうしています たくさん はなすことが たいせつです。リラックスし わたしとたのしく たくさん はなしましょう。
