I can speak Japanese friendly and casual, also can speak polite. you can choose which one you like. 日本語が母国語ではない方とランゲージエクスチェンジを頻繁にしているので、小さな日本語のミスも指摘することができます。 日本語は多様な表現があるので、関心のある方には類義語もたくさん紹介することができます。 語学学習は辛いことも楽しいこともたくさんあります。 外国語のマスターはとても長い道ですが、楽しい長旅になるようサポートします!

多年日文學習&翻譯經驗,現職教學日文 これまで一年間ぐらいオンラインで日本語を教えてきました。最近も家で少人数のクラスを開いて、日本語を教えています。レッスンは実用的な教材を使い、テストしたり、会話を通して練習の場を作っております。 レッスンではわかりやすい言葉でコミュニケーションをしています。生徒たちがレッスンに対して何もかも感想又は質問などがあったら、遠慮せずコミュニケーションしてもらえるとありがたいと思います。例えば、レッスン内容に関した質問、レッスンに対する感想や期待、学ぶ時自分にとってどこが難しかったなど、どんどん話し合えば、より良い学習環境を作れると思っております。

I am very happy to be able to teach Japanese with you. I was a kindergarten teacher for 17 years. After that, I got my Japanese teacher qualification and taught face-to-face classes at a Japanese language school for about three years. Now I teach Japanese to children at an international school, and also teach at a Japanese language school while giving online private lessons. I don't want it to feel like I'm just studying, so I make sure to chat while I'm learning natural Japanese.

HAPPY SALE Package 8% Discount 💓 Special passion for teaching the Japanese pitch accent. 💓 My passion lies in drawing out the learner's ability to learn autonomously. The purpose of my sessions is to support the curiosity and power that you originally possess. Leave it to me. Many people enjoy the process of learning Japanese itself. At the same time, the strengths of my lessons are a relaxed mood like talking with friends, and teaching Japanese pitch accents! Japanese sounds like a native speaker just by making the accent correct. I can teach you the accent properly. Please read the feedbacks from my students to feel their excitement. I believe that you will be able to discover the joy of communication, expressing yourself vividly, through our session times.
