Mayuko Nihongo
certified japanese teacher ★Beginners Friendly ★The lesson content has been redesigned. It is natural to not know where to start or how to learn any language at first! I have taught many beginner classes and I always tell my students that Japanese is not difficult. I also try to create an atmosphere where it is easy for students to say they don't understand what they don't understand.

I have started teaching as a teaching assistant in Japanese classes when I was going to college. For the last 20 years, I've been helping new employees to get adjusted to their lives in Japan. Teaching basic Japanese was one of the support I was providing. I have helped my friends to pass JLPT. I have also supported foreign tourists as a volunteer guide in Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima. Therefore, I am confident that I can support beginner level students well. I love seeing their smiles when they were able to use the language that they learned with locals. That’s the best thing when you are learning a new language. We will talk a lot in my class. That's the best way to gain confidence.

I teach foreigners Japanese and I teach Japanese people English online : ) As one of English learners, I understand how difficult to acquire a foreign language so I want to help people speak Japanese. I always try making things easier by using a lot of pictures. I also like casual conversations.

拥有超过十三年对外汉语教学经验! An excellent teacher needs not only a solid foundation in the language, enthusiasm, self confidence, lively and interesting lesson plans but they also need to understand the correct methods for learning(teaching) a language. During my TESOL training I learnt the theory of how our brain and body learn languages. I also learnt more than thirty different excellent teaching methods from all over the world. I have since used these methods in my everyday teaching and found them to be really effective. Over the past eight years I’ve taught more than 500 different students with ages ranging from 2 to 70 plus years. I’ve seen how their language learning has brought them great satisfaction and happine

Tomomi
Certified, experienced teacher, kind & friendly! I am a certified Japanese language teacher. I have total 14 years of teaching experience, and I love doing it. Through teaching, I can discover new aspects of my native language, and it is such a pleasure to share that discovery with students. I also love the moment of "AHA! I got it!" in my students, so I try my best to make things simple, clear, and easy to understand :) Since this is online, face-to-face lesson, I think it is important for you to speak Japanese as much as you can during the lesson. So I will make sure you will be the one who speaks most of the time. And of course it's okay to make mistakes!
