I’ve taught English at a Japanese cram school for junior and senior high school students for 2 years, and worked in childcare where I encouraged young learners to use English in daily activities. I also volunteered to teach English at a local kindergarten. These experiences taught me how to be patient, adaptable, and creative in my teaching — skills that are just as important for adult learners as for children. Combined with my nursing background, I’m good at listening carefully and making students feel comfortable and supported. My goal is to create a relaxed space where you can speak freely, make mistakes, and learn natural, everyday Japanese without feeling pressured.

私は教えない。I don't teach you. I'm a guide, trainer, and counselor of all the autodidacts. I am no longer a teacher who only teaches. I am a guide, a trainer, and a counselor of all the autodidacts. I try to get the most out of my learners and give them back what they need. Also, I don't think it is enough to just present the learning items. I want to support them in the process of learning as well. It is my greatest pleasure to see the results of our work together. 教えるだけの先生は卒業しました。私は独学者のガイドであり、トレーナーでもあり、カウンセラーでもあります。学習者から最大限引き出し、必要なものを加えて返していくよう心がけています。また、学習項目を提示するだけでは十分だと思いません。覚える過程も含めてサポートしていきたいです。そしてその成果を、双方で確認することを至上の喜びと感じています。

Sumire
やっほ~🤗Friendly & Certified teacher with over 8 years experience. Let’s have fun practicing Japanese! During my fourth year of college I obtained a certification to teach Japanese professionally and after graduating, I started working in a Japanese language school in Tokyo, where I taught classes of foreign students and did private lessons for about five years. One of the reasons why I love teaching Japanese is that I can discover the intriguing and fascinating particularities of Japanese words and expressions together with interesting people from all over the world, while learning about their cultures and ways of thinking. I want to continue teaching in the future because I love how I and my students can motivate and encourage each other to keep learning and be curious while having fun.

[NEW YEAR SALE] PACKAGE FOR FREE TALK | Qualified Japanese teacher |Japanese from Zero| As a teacher, I focus on creating a safe and comfortable learning environment for students who are new to Japanese. My main focus is on beginners, especially absolute beginners who may feel nervous about speaking or making mistakes. In my lessons, I don’t rely heavily on textbooks or complicated grammar explanations. Instead, I teach simple and practical verb patterns and encourage students to use them immediately to create their own sentences. Because of this approach, many students are able to start speaking Japanese and feel real progress even within a one-hour lesson‼︎ My goal is to help you enjoy learning Japanese and feel confident taking your next step.
