■The Basics─『いろどり』─You can learn practical conversations in real-life Japanese situations. I completed a 420-hour Japanese teacher training program in 2014, and since then I have gained extensive experience teaching at language schools in Mexico and Japan, as well as online. In recent years, more people have started learning Japanese for fun, and as someone who used to be a “Spanish-language nerd,” I completely understand that feeling. Studying English grammar has also helped me understand the challenges of Japanese deeply. I love sharing my passion for language learning and supporting my students’ progress. I’ve met many wonderful learners on italki, and those experiences make me believe we can create lessons truly tailored to your needs as we get to know each other over time.

It's been a while but finally I'm back!!! I like making my lessons enjoyable and comfortable. I am able to change my teaching style for you. For example, if you want me to correct every part of Japanese like pronuncitation, words or natural phrases. I will teach you how to speak, read and type correctly. わたし は わたしの レッスン を たのしく かいてき にすることが すきです。 わたし は おしえかた を あなた に あわせて かえること が できます。 たとえば あなた の はつおん たんご しぜんないいまわし など。  わたし は あなた に はなしかた、 よみかた、 タイピング を ただしく おしえます。

Certified Japanese Teacher for Anime Fans – Learn with a Pro! Since I was a university student, I have studied various languages such as Chinese, Korean. Therefore, I understand your difficulties in learning Japanese. I ’m a language learner too. English is a language that I have been studying for a long time. I respect people who can speak English or any other language that I have studied. I think it is hard to control your motivation, especially when you are learning a language that isn't much of an opportunity to use in a daily life. But the most important thing is enjoy learning. I will listen to your interests and do my best to include as much as possible in the teaching materials. So, please tell me a lot about yourself in the first lesson!
