ラフ過ぎない、かたくなりすぎない、ちょうどいい丁寧な日本語に気を付けてレッスンします。 まずたくさん話してもらうことを大切にします。自然になおしたり、言い方をサポートしたりしますので、安心してたくさん間違って、たくさんつまずきながら話してほしいです。 難しかったところは、フィードバックや2回目以降のおさらいで、はっきりさせますので、うやむやに終わることもありません。 あなたの年齢やキャラに合った、好感度の高い日本語を目指しましょう。 In my lessons, I focus on using Japanese that is polite but not too formal, and natural but not too casual. I value giving you plenty of time to speak. Don’t worry about making mistakes—I will correct you naturally and support your expressions, so please feel free to try and even stumble as much as you need. For difficult points, I will review them clearly in feedback or in the next lesson. This way, nothing will remain

Japanese Top 1 % Teacher,Learning with Your Passion for Anime/Manga/Video game Let me tell you the story about why I wanted to be an italki teacher. After graduating from university, I went to study abroad in Canada. At that time, I mainly hung out with my Otaku friends in Canada. We had different languages, but the same passion for the same hobbies. Then I realized that “Learning language makes my life much more fun.” Anime and my Otaku friends motivated me to improve my English skills a lot! So now, I’d like to do the same by teaching Japanese for those who have the same passion as me!

会話(かいわ)を楽(たの)しみながら新(あたら)しい文法(ぶんぽう)や単語(たんご)を身(み)につけよう🌸 I have been teaching Japanese online since October 2024. Before that, during my student days, I supported international students as a volunteer and taught Japanese through language exchange.
I majored in Japanese linguistics at university. My lessons are fun and relaxed, like chatting with a friend. 😊 I’m also studying English.
I’m not fluent, but I can give simple support in English.
Recently, I started learning Spanish too. 2024年10月からオンラインで日本語を教えています。 学生時代にボランティアスタッフとして留学生のサポートや、言語交換で日本語を教えたことがあります。また、大学で日本語学を専攻していました。 リラックスした雰囲気で友達と話すような楽しいレッスンができます。 私も英語を勉強しています。 流暢ではありませんが、英語でも簡単なサポートができます。 最近スペイン語の勉強も始めました。
