Taka it Easy
I’ll help turn your worries about learning a language into fun and confidence. Do you enjoy chatting? If so, you’ll quickly improve your Japanese and be a great fit for lessons with me. But even if you get nervous and find speaking difficult, that’s absolutely no problem. Over many years in the fashion industry, I’ve listened to customers of all ages, and I want to hear your stories and have you talk a lot during our lessons. The goal of our lessons isn’t just to speak well with me. The most important thing is to enjoy conversations with **other Japanese people**, right? That’s what I’m here to fully support you with. Also, I’d love to teach you some of the “ways of speaking that make people like you” that I learned through my customer service experience.

Would you like to learn FLUENT JAPANESE from "1 of Top 1% JAPANESE teachers of italki in 2022" ? DO YOU WANT TO BE A FLUENT JAPANESE SPEAKER? Grammar lessons with "NO text books!" Many pictures and examples are used to make you think and make sentences in Japanese! You will get a bunch of opportunities to speak and listen to Japanese, and that makes you become a NATURAL JAPANESE SPEAKER! You will learn Japanese language, Japanese way of thinking and culture in my lessons :) I believe if you only master Japanese language but you don't understand its culture and people, it doesn't mean anything. The most fun part of learning language is to understand different culture and people. For you, the happiest moment would be sharing laughter with Japanese people by using your own Japanese!

Master natural Japanese pronunciation and pitch accent with me! 私は2019年6月から、日本語を教えています。 日本語の会話をしながら、日本語を教えます。 英語は話しません。 「日本語」と「あなたの国の言葉」は違います。 日本語の会話をしながら、文法や発音などを教えます😊 I have been teaching Japanese since June 2019. I teach Japanese while having Japanese conversations. I don't speak English. "Japanese" and "the language of your country" are different. While having a conversation in Japanese, I will teach you grammar and pronunciation 😊

Let's enjoy studying Japanese! 翻訳の仕事をしているので日本語の細かいニュアンスを伝えることができます。以前はホテルで働いていたので丁寧な日本語も教えることができます。特にフランス語圏の方につきましては間違いやすいポイントを知っていますので初級から上級者の方に対応いたします。 J'enseigne souvent le japonais surtout à mes amis francophones. Je connais donc les points dans lesquels les Francophones ont tendance à se tromper. Comme je travaille en tant que traducteur, je peux transmettre les nuances subtiles du japonais. Je peux aussi enseigner le japonais poli grâce à mon expérience dans l’hôtellerie. I have been teaching Japanese on Italki since August. And since I work as a translator, I can explain the subtle nuances of Japanese. I can also teach polite Japanese thanks to my experience in the hotel business.

Some of the students I've taught passed the JLPT N2 in just one year, even though they couldn't speak Japanese at all. The first step in learning Japanese is to not be afraid of making mistakes. It's okay to make mistakes, so let's talk a lot! The fastest way to improve is to talk a lot about your favorite Japanese topics. I'm looking forward to talking with you all

Enjoy speaking Japanese! Japanese is FUN!! (See Youtube @chiekoosugi233) I've got many years of experience. My first experience was in the Philippines. I was a volunteer sent by the Japanese government and taught at the Foreign Service Institute of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My students at that time were all adults mainly government officials. After that I went to New Zealand to continue teaching Japanese at a university and also secondary schools. Upon returning to Japan, I taught English to the young Japanese volunteers who were going out to some developing countries for their tasks. Aside from the many years of teaching experiences, my knowledge of multiple languages helps understand the students' psychology and I can help them effectively.
