Let’s talk about YOUR life in Japanese | Friendly & curious teacher, conversations like friends Hello! I'm Manae. Please call me Manae or Manae-sensei! :) I started teaching Japanese on italki about one year ago and have met students from many different countries. Students often describe me as **kind, easy to talk to, and fun**. I love hearing about my students’ lives — their culture, daily routines, favorite movies, anime, or events in their country. For me, language learning is not only about grammar. It’s about communication and connection. My goal is to help you feel comfortable speaking Japanese and build confidence step by step.

Professional qualified teacher who has taught at a Japanese language school in the Los Angeles area Beginners with Genki 1 & Genki 2 are welcome. As I reflect back on the various occupations I’ve had, I see a common ground in all of them; a teacher. I have taught English in Prep Schools, I was a Christian Pastor teaching the Bible in churches, I was a communication skills trainer at the mentally handicapped training center and now I am a Japanese language teacher for foreigners and missionaries. The greatest joy as a teacher is to share the moment with the student when the unknown becomes known and understood. There is joy in understanding intellectually with the mind, as well as the excitement of understanding with the heart. I teach with Genki 1 for beginners and Genki 2.
