I have been teaching Japanese face-to-face for 5 years I have been teaching Japanese face-to-face for 5 years I have a lot of experience teaching Japanese. Some of the students I've taught passed the JLPT N2 in just one year, even though they couldn't speak Japanese at all. The first step in learning Japanese is to not be afraid of making mistakes. It's okay to make mistakes, so let's talk a lot! The fastest way to improve is to talk a lot about your favorite Japanese topics. I'm looking forward to talking with you all

Thanks for reading my profile. Here are the lessons what I teach mainly. -Japanese conversation (beginner/advanced) -Learn Japanese step by step (Japanese letters and grammars based by Minnano Nihongo) -Business Japanese (beginner/advanced) -Intensive lesson for JLPT (N5-N1) But if you have any questions for Japanese or requests, I can give you the lesson too. (Leaning Japanese song, reading Japanese novels, understanding Japanese comedy etc...) My youngest students were 6 years old. I like teaching to kids too. To study and speak a foreign language opens your world and mind on a level which can’t be measured. Let’s study Japanese together and open the world around you!

Multilingual | 10+ Years,12,000+ Hours Teaching Experience | Tailored Lessons for Professionals |懂中文 In every session, I strive to follow the approach of "teaching a man to fish for a lifetime instead of giving him a fish for a day," fostering independent learning and long-term skill development. This approach is inspired by my experiences of learning foreign languages while living in cities like Beijing, Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Istanbul, and Vientiane, which helped me understand the challenges of language acquisition. I am committed to helping you enrich your career and personal life through learning Japanese. Most of my students have regular weekly slots, so my availability is limited. However, feel free to contact me to discuss your preferred time, and I will do my best to accommodate you.

I am so excited to be able to help students in their language journey. I have no certification in teaching. However, I've been teaching Japanese on italki as a community tutor since March of 2015. My experience which I've been learning English and Korean language has positive impacts. I understand that learning language can be confusing, but I believe in making learning relaxed and fun. I'm just happy to have the chance to help you along your way.
