JLPT N1/N2 Reading Strategy|Structured Exam Preparation My teaching style is analytical, structured, and goal-oriented. Students say I explain grammar clearly, but what makes my lessons different is the strategy training for JLPT reading. We don’t just read. We break down the structure of the text. We learn how exam questions are created. We practice solving efficiently. Advanced Japanese is abstract and layered. I teach you how to navigate that complexity. Mistakes are welcome — they are clues to improve your score.

Certified Professional Japanese Teacher!! 🐬 Living in Latin-America 🐬 🔞 I do not accept students under 18 years old. 🌸 In my classes, I use the direct method, which is a method of teaching Japanese using only Japanese. Hello, I am Kenji. As a diving instructor, I have been diving in oceans all over the world since I was 18 years old. Australia, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Patagonia, etc. Then, at the age of 27, I opened a diving shop in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and set up branches in Loreto and Cancun. Later, I opened a diving shop in Japan, sold all my businesses at the age of 45, and am now basically retired. After retiring at the age of 45, my daily work is investing in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and currencies, which I have been doing continuously since I was young. And completing the Japanese teacher training course at the age of 47, I started teaching Japanese in Latin America, mainly in Mexico and Colombia. Due to the pandemic, all schools were closed, so I started teaching online. My experience teaching online began in 2020. My personal areas of expertise: economics, politics, management, taxation, marine mammals, travel, scuba diving, surfing, Latin America, music, and musical instruments. 🔞 I do not accept students under 18 years old. 🌸 In my classes, I use the direct method, which is a method of teaching Japanese using only Japanese.

Experienced Coach|36 countries Travel exspert |Beginners, Free Talk ,JLPT ,Kids Ok, All Levels, 「日本語、ずっと勉強しているのに、全然話せるようにならない…」そう感じたことはありませんか?その原因は、あなたの努力不足ではなく、「教科書の日本語」と「実際に使われている日本語」の間にある大きなギャップかもしれません。 はじめまして、日本語教師のYukaです。 私は日本の語学学校で、1歳のお子さんから大人の方まで、幅広い年齢層の生徒さんに日本語を教えてきました。 また、日系企業での勤務経験もあり、教室の中だけでは学べない「実際に使われている日本語」や、日本社会ならではの考え方・マナーについても深い知識を持っています。 ビジネスの現場で培った経験は、丁寧な言葉遣いから、同僚や上司との円滑な人間関係の築き方まで、幅広くお伝えできる強みになっています。 私自身も現在スペイン語と英語を学習中の身であり、生徒として新しい言語を学ぶ大変さや、思うように話せないもどかしさ、そしてうまく話せたときの喜びを、身をもって理解しています。 【私のレッスンの特徴】 教科書の文法をなぞるだけの授業はしません。 もちろん基礎はしっかりお伝えしますが、それに加えて「実際の会話で本当に使われる表現」も一緒に学んでいきます。 教科書では「です・ます」形が中心ですが、実際の会話は人間関係の話や噂話、スラングであふれています。教科書だけで勉強して会話につまずいてしまう方の原因は、実はここにあります。 友人との会話、職場でのやり取り、旅行先での一コマ―そのすべてに合った言葉選びができるよう、状況に応じた自然な日本語をお教えします。 教科書の各ユニットの文法事項が終わったら、必ずカジュアルな表現もプラスして教えるのが、他の先生との違いです。 【対応できるレベル・目的】 ・ゼロからの初級者の方:ひらがな・カタカナから、無理なく続けられるペースで丁寧にサポートします。「覚えられない」「続かない」という不安も、一緒に解消していきましょう。 ・JLPT合格を目指す方:必要な漢字・語彙・文法を整理し、試験日から逆算した学習プランを作成します。シャドーイングなどのトレーニングでリスニング力も鍛えます。 ・旅行や出張前に短期間で日本語を身につけたい方:限られた時間で確実に成果を出せるよう、実際に使う場面を想定した実践的なフレーズを中心に学びます。 ・ビジネスシーンで自信を持って日本語を使いたい方:敬語やビジネスマナー、日本人特有の考え方まで、文化的な背景を含めて丁寧に解説します。 ・お子さんの日本語学習:年齢制限なし、アニメや好きな遊びを取り入れながら、楽しみながら自然に学べます。 ・とにかく日本語で自由に話したい方:テーマは自由、間違いを気にせずたくさん話すフリートークも大歓迎です。 【大切にしていること】 間違えることを恐れないでください。 間違いは、上達している証拠です。緊張せずに話せる、リラックスした雰囲気のレッスンをいつも心がけています。 一人ひとりの目標やペース、興味関心に合わせて、オーダーメイドのレッスンプランを一緒に作っていきます。 【レッスンの進め方】 初回のレッスンでは、まずあなたの現在のレベルや目標、興味のあることをじっくりお伺いします。「なんとなく話せるようになりたい」という漠然とした目標でも大丈夫です。 一緒にお話ししながら、あなたに合った学習の道筋を見つけていきましょう。 教材はすべて画面上で共有しますので、手ぶらでレッスンにご参加いただけます。 レッスン中は、日本語だけでなく、必要に応じて英語やスペイン語での説明も可能です。
