🇯🇵🏃‍♀️I'm a cheerleader of your goal🏃🇯🇵 I obtained my Japanese teaching qualification in April 2022. Since then, I've been working as an online Japanese teacher, offering lessons not only on italki but also classes for technical intern trainees and Kanji preparation for JLPT. As an English learner myself, I deeply understand the challenges of learning languages. I always try to tailor my lessons to suit each student's goals, whether they are beginners, planning to visit Japan as a tourist, or simply looking to have conversations like friends. 2022年4月に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。 それからはオンライン日本語教師として、italkiの他に技能実習生への授業やJLPTの漢字対策の授業もしています。 私も英語学習者なので、言語学習の難しさを痛感しています。 初めて日本語を勉強する人や日本に観光に来る予定のある人、また友達のように会話をしたい人など、それぞれの目的に合わせてレッスンをするようにしています。

I've been teaching Japanese for 6 years. I've been teaching Japanese for six years. When I was a student, I worked as a tutor and cram school instructor for English and mathematics. I also volunteered for four years reading to students in the morning at an elementary school and worked in after-school childcare. I was a member of a Japanese language club as part of a city volunteer activity. The ages of my students range from 9 to 70 years old. I’m very happy to receive feedback from students who enjoy my lessons. I like to hear about their success in passing JLPT N3, and hear from those who are working hard to aim for N1.

💬 “Speak Japanese with confidence and a smile — even just 3 lessons can change your world!” Most of my students are A2–C1 learners, especially those preparing for JLPT N3 and N2. I teach every day at both a language school and a training center, so I’m used to helping learners start speaking Japanese with confidence. In my class, mistakes are not a problem — they’re proof that you’re learning. You make mistakes, you get better. That’s how language really grows. I’m also a language learner, so I understand both the frustration and the joy of studying step by step. That’s why I always update my lessons, try new ideas, and focus on what truly helps my students. My English isn’t perfect, so sometimes I’ll ask you to type what you want to say in the chat. Let’s grow together 😄
