Most Japanese kids lessons taught on italki! Licensed kindergarten teacher *:) I was working as a kindergarten teacher for three years after I graduated college. After that, I lived in the US for two years to learn English. I have experience as working at a Japanese language school and teaching Japanese language to private students. I've been a professional teacher for eight years. English is my second language, so I can empathize with others who are also learning a new language. 日本では大学卒業後、幼稚園教諭として3年間の経験があり子どもの拙い日本語を優しく指導してきました。そして英語を学ぶ為、渡米し二年間コロラド州に住んでいました。現地の日本語学校での職務経験とフリーランスとして多数の生徒たちに日本語を指導してきましたので、プロの講師としては8年目になります。英語は私の母国語ではないので、私も他言語を学んだ一人として、他言語を学ぶ人の気持ちがよくわかります。

Native Japanese Speaker | Focus on Communication & Cultural Immersion This year marks my 4th year teaching Japanese on italki. Many of my students have described me as kind, patient, friendly, and easy to understand. I’m also fortunate to have several long-term students. For beginners, I use English to assist in understanding, but for intermediate and advanced learners, I primarily teach in Japanese, switching to English only when necessary. Having learned multiple languages myself, I understand firsthand the challenges of language acquisition. So don't worry about making mistakes. Let's learn together at your own pace!

I will put more effort for teaching!!
