Hagi
I was raised and educated in Japan but now live in Vietnam. I regularly use Vietnamese with my colleague, subordinates and counterparts and sometimes communicate with customers around the world in English. Each language is unique in its own way, but don't think too hard about it, just start a conversation by using the words you know and saying them out loud.

I had been working in Tokyo, Japan. I'm professional Business Japanese and interviewer! I have studied counseling and coaching because I have studied psychology. I respect the students studying Japanese. Studying a foreign language is very difficult. Since I am studying English, I really understand the feelings of people studying foreign languages. It's easy to forget the language when you stop studying it, but don't give up and continue. I support you! 私は日本語を勉強する生徒さんを尊敬しています。外国語を勉強するのはとても大変です。 私は英語を勉強しているので外国語を勉強する人の気持ちが良くわかります。 言葉は勉強しなくなると忘れがちになりますが、諦めずに続けていきましょう。応援しています。

I always enjoy teaching and seeing my students improve their Japanese. I am a teacher but I have been studying English and Spanish so I fully understand the difficulty to learn other languages. As I have lived in Tokyo for about 10 years I speak standard Japanese other than Kansai dialect ( 関西弁). I also speak English and Spanish other than Japanese.

オリジナル教材のスピーキング特訓で「話すための日本語」を教えます!中級以上の方には細かい文法解説やテーマに沿った会話練習でより自然な日本語を教えます! I've been teaching more than 20 years now. As a language teacher, I started teaching Japanese in Brazil in 2014. But I also taught music, English and other materials for kids in Japan, so teaching was always my passion. I started teaching online in 2019, and now I teach every single day. I love to see the students' progress so every level is welcome in my lesson. Recently I started to learn Chinese and French online, too, in order to, of course, improve my language skills but also to understand my students' difficulties. I've been discovering a lot of things by learning languages as a student, and that's helping me to set my mind and to reflect to and to improve my own lesson.
