Stop translating. Start speaking natural Japanese. Hi! I’m a native Japanese tutor living in Germany. I have studied English, German, and Korean, and one thing I have learned is that languages cannot always be translated word for word. Even when a sentence is grammatically correct, it may sound unnatural because every language has its own way of expressing ideas, feelings, and politeness. That is why my lessons focus on natural Japanese for real communication. During our conversations, I can help you with: ✓ Natural expressions ✓ Vocabulary and grammar corrections ✓ Pronunciation and intonation ✓ How a Japanese speaker would express the same idea ✓ Repeated mistakes and useful review points Instead of translating everything from your first language, let’s practice expressing your ideas directly in Japanese. You don’t need perfect Japanese. Let’s turn the Japanese you know into Japanese you can actually use! 日本語 こんにちは。ドイツ在住の日本人チューターです。 私はこれまで英語・ドイツ語・韓国語を学んできました。その中で強く感じたのは、言葉は単語をそのまま置き換えれば自然になるわけではないということです。 文法的には正しくても、文化や場面によっては不自然に聞こえることがあります。 だからこそ私のレッスンでは、「正しい日本語」だけではなく、実際の会話で自然に使える日本語を大切にしています。 会話をしながら、 ✓ 自然な表現 ✓ 語彙・文法の訂正 ✓ 発音・イントネーション ✓ 日本人ならどう表現するか ✓ 繰り返しやすい間違い を一緒に確認します。 母語から一文ずつ訳すのではなく、少しずつ日本語で考え、日本語らしく伝える練習をしていきましょう。 「知っている日本語」を「使える日本語」に変えていきましょう！

My mother-tongue is Korean. But I've learned English, Japanese and Chinese. So I truly understand how difficult learning languages is. I'm very positive, patient and enthusiastic. And I prepare each lesson only for A student. For example, if a student has a tendency to make mistakes using the present perfect, I usually prepare more focused lessons that he or she can repeatedly practice using the present perfect. I believe you could learn more through the mistakes that you make. And I will be there for you to correct or coach whenever you need it. You are going to be very very proud of yourself in the end. Let's have fun learning!!
