An FBI-inspired method to help you speak sooner I was born in Germany and moved to the United States when I was twenty. I have been teaching while pursuing my acting career in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Germany. I have taught adults and children from many backgrounds for more than 25 years. I teach German and English at all levels, and beginners in French and Japanese. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and structured. Students describe me as patient, positive, and easy to understand. I want you to feel safe speaking, making mistakes, and improving step by step. What makes my approach special is that I use language-learning principles inspired by how institutions such as the CIA and FBI train languages: quick recall, immediate sentence building, and active speaking from the beginning. The key is not just memorizing words, but using them instantly. We practice vocabulary through interval recall while forming real sentences, so your brain learns to retrieve the language naturally. I also use pictures for simple prompt-and-response conversations. This helps even beginners speak from the start: I show or describe something, ask guided questions, and help you answer in complete sentences. CANCELLATION POLICY I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. Please use the italki system to reschedule or cancel lessons with more than 24 hours’ notice. Please do not request rescheduling within 24 hours. If you cannot attend, let me know and schedule a new lesson online. I appreciate you and value your time.

I specialize in conversation practice! I also provide Youtube videos of Japanese conversation. Outside of lesson time, I'll introduce you to videos and materials for self-study. A lot of self-study is necessary for beginners who have just started to be able to speak quickly. I'll encourage you and help you while you study on your own! Let's make the lesson time a time to use what you've memorized! If there's something you don't understand, I'll explain it to you. Above all, what I value most in lessons is enjoying conversation. When you speak in your native language, do you make more jokes? Even though it's a lesson, let's talk casually in Japanese just like when you speak in your native language. Casual conversation is also welcome, not just the polite "desu, masu" style!

みなさん、こんにちは! わたしの名前は、まさよ、です。 日本で生まれ、日本で育ちました。東京都の出身です。 日本の、ヒロシマ、おおさか、ナゴヤ、など、ほかの都市でも生活しました。 同じ日本語でも、その土地によって発音や単語の違いがあり、そのオモシロサも経験しました。 最近までトルコに8年間住んでいました。 トルコの優しい人々、美味しい料理、古い歴史が大好きです。 Merhabalar! İsmim Masayo, ben Japonum. Tokyo’da büyüdüm. Fakat Japonya’da Hiroshima, Osaka, Nagoya gibi başka şehirinde de yaşadım. Türkiye’de 8 yıldır yaşadım Türk insan çok nazik. Yemekleri çok lezzetli. Güzel tarihi var. Bunları çok seviyorum. わたしも外国に住んでいましたので、外国語を話すことのむずかしさを理解しています。 同時に、話せる時の楽しさも実感しています。 その土地の人々と会話し、文化にふれることは、その土地の言葉を好きになり、じょうずに話せるようになる上で役立ってきました。 それで、外国語の上達には、ネイティブスピーカーと会話することがとても大切だと考えています。 私は英語をあまり話せません。おもに日本語で会話してゆきます。 Ben de başka ülkede yaşadım. Bu yüzden yabancı dil öğrenmenin ne kadar zor olduğunu aynı zamanda ne kadar güzel olduğunu da öğrendim. Türk insanlarla konuşarak, güzel yemekleri tadarak,ayrıca eski tarihli inceleyerek Türkçeyi öğrendim. Bunlar Türkçemin gelişmesine çok etkiledi. Japonca öğrendiğinizde birlikte sohbet etmek size çok yarar sağlar. Maalesef İngilizcem çok zayıf. normalde Japonca ile sohbet edelim. わたしのレッスンは主にフリートークですが、せいかくな発音や、声をだして文を読んだり、文をつくったりするお手伝いができます。みなさんの好きなこと、経験したこと、知りたいことなど、なんでもわたしに教えてくださいね。ゆっくりで大丈夫です。いっしょに会話しながら楽しく日本語をまなんでいきましょう! Benim derslerim serbest konuşma üzerindedir. Ama doğru telaffuz söylemenize, sesli okumanıza ve cümle kurmanıza yardımcı olabilirim. Sevdiğiniz, yaşadığınız ya da öğrenmek istediğiniz şeyleri bana anlatabilirsiniz. Birlikte sohbet ederek Japonca öğrenelim!
