Thank you for being here. My name is Michiko. I'm a native Japanese speaker. I'm interested in picture books and children's literature and I'm working towards becoming a translator. I enjoy learning English, so I can speak English a little. I like writing a journal, collecting stationeries or washi tapes, painting pictures and watching game streaming videos. I've been to England once. When I visited there, some people spoke Japanese to me and I was really glad that. And then, I'd like to help people learn Japanese. I've experienced various kinds of jobs like a teacher in a cramschool and junior high school, a shop assistant at a general store. I passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test in 2021. My main lessons are Free Talk. We enjoy talking about the cultures, learning language, hobbies or anything else you like. If you have any questions, you can ask me at any time. (in English, OK) I think enjoying and making mistakes are really important in learning new languages. You may be nervous at first, but please don't worry about making mistakes and always challenge with me!

6年間の講師経験をもつフランス在住講師 I focus on speaking practice, not grammar teaching. My lessons are for students who want to use Japanese in a natural way.

In my lessons, you can speak without fear of mistakes. 私は文法を一から教えるのではなく、会話を中心に日本語を使う練習をしています。生徒さんのレベルや目的に合わせて、話すスピードや語彙を変えます。 アートや文化をきっかけに会話を広げることが多いです。私自身もフランス語を学んでいて、「言いたいのに言えない」という気持ちを知っています。だから、安心して間違えられる環境を大切にしています。

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.
