I passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test, and I am a licensed professional teacher. I am very passionate about teaching. I know how hard it is to learn a foreign language because I’ve studied English abroad in Canada for a year. So, in my lesson, don’t worry about making mistakes! Just enjoy having conversations (^^) 日本語教育能力検定試験に合格し、プロの日本語教師になりました。 私は1年間、カナダに英語留学をしたことがあるので、新しい言葉を学ぶ時の気持ちはよく分かります。 私のレッスンではたくさん間違っても大丈夫です! 少しずつ日本語に慣れていきましょう☆

【Kids& Adults】Let's speak Japanese Naturally and with Confidence! I work at a cafe of tourist information and meet many people from all over the world every day. I am very happy when they speak easy Japanese like 'Arigato' to me. I am glad that they are interested in our language and culture. That's why I decided to become a Japanese teacher. I was a volunteer tutor for foreign students in Japanese class when I was a university student. I supported their learning process and learned how to teach Japanese along the way. I love teaching very much. I would like to have fun talking in Japanese like friends. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask as many times as you need, even if you think they are small things.

Native Japanese and Chinese bilingual. 中文日语【双母语】 I LOVE Japanese language. You have no idea just how much it has made my life so much more colorful and brighter! I find it so beautiful and interesting. I love the sound, the looks, and the flow of it. It is my first priority to make you see the beauty of this language and fall in love with it ;) As I believe education only fails when students stop loving what they learn, whereas love is that magical touch that turns you into a Japanese-absorbing sponge (hahaha..😆 As a Chinese native, I'll be able to give you some Chinese input/perspective into Kanji, e.g. why they pronounce/write that way. It helps to make you understand better terms and idioms.

Let’s immerse ourselves in a world of only Japanese .Want to use Japanese at work?Study together! Working with Japanese clients? Not sure how to introduce yourself and your job in Japanese? Let’s work on it together! As a teacher, I focus on creating a safe and relaxed space where students can feel comfortable speaking Japanese. We speak only in Japanese during lessons, but I use simple words, slow speech, and gestures to support your understanding. Mistakes are welcome and part of learning! I always respect your pace and goals — whether it’s grammar, conversation, or daily expressions.

しぜんな日本語がはなせるようになりたい人!🙌 I have completed the studies for the 420 hour Advanced Skills of Teaching Japanese Language Course. My lesson is NOT typical Japanese lesson that practice Japanese which native Japanese wouldn't say! With or without a textbook, it doesn't matter. Even if we use a text book, I don't follow too much. We can have a conversation whilst practicing "Natural Japanese"! Playing games, describing some situations or such... I'll adapt the lesson to the student! Let me know if you have any request! プロの日本語教師になるための420時間のコースを受けました。日本人がよく使う日本語、”しぜんな日本語”を会話をしながら、練習します。教科書はあっても、なくても、大丈夫です。教科書を使ったとしても、教科書に沿って教えるだけでなく、自然な日本語を練習しながら、会話をします。ゲームをしたり、写真の説明をしたり…生徒さんに合わせたレッスンをします。何か希望があれば、言ってくださいね。
