JLPT受験対策、大学・大学院受験面接対策レッスンが人気です! 私は日本語学校で、主に日本の専門学校や大学・大学院を受験したい留学生に、日本語を教えてきたので、面接対策・JLPTの受験指導ができます。 また、日本映画、アニメ、TV番組、日本観光、日本料理、日本文化のクラスも担当してきたので、いろいろなアプローチで日本語と日本文化を教えることができます。 I have taught Japanese mainly to international students who want to take the entrance exams for Japanese vocational schools, universities, and graduate schools, so I can give guidance for interview tests and JLPT exams. And I have also been in charge of classes on Japanese movies, anime, TV programs, tourism, cuisine, culture, so I can teach about Japan and Japanese culture with various approaches.

🌸Nika24 Speakingの先生🌸
MY ORIGINAL SPEEKING LESSON!!🇯🇵😆 I was working in a vocational school for foreign students before. The school was the NO.1 employment rate in Japan. My job there was to improve the students' conversational skills. So, I came up with original conversation lessons. If you take my conversation lessons seriously, you can naturally acquire many words and grammar. Let's have a fun conversation with me! 以前,我在一所面向外国学生的职业学校工作。那所学校在日本的就业率是最高的。我的工作是提高学生们的会话能力。因此,我设计了原创的会话课程。如果认真参加我的会话课程,你可以自然地掌握很多单词和语法。让我们一起进行有趣的对话吧!

🌸Native Japanese/ Experienced teaching Japanese in English🌸 I teach Japanese online for more than 4 years. I also have experience teaching Japanese at universities in Japan and, the university in the US. I can teach Japanese in English. I teach children to adults. For beginners and intermediates, I usually use the GENKI textbook. For advanced, we can focus on speaking, so we can choose topics for each lesson to discuss. I also love anime. So if you would like to, we can learn Japanese through anime or manga, too. For children, we can learn Japanese in a fun way! We can sing Japanese songs or watch fun short clips to increase your vocabulary! I love teaching Japanese, about Japan, and Japanese culture.

たくさん日本語でお話ししましょう! 間違ってもだいじょうぶ。楽しく会話をしましょうね。 あなたに会えるのをお待ちしています! I firmly believe that if you would like to be a good Japanese speaker, you need to speak a lot as much as possible :-) You don’t have to worry about grammar so much. What you have to do is just hearing Japanese language a lot, like podcasts, movies, animes, music,YouTube videos etc... and speak it . I believe that helps you to pick up words and sentence structures naturally. And you can also pick up native terms from it as well. That will help you speaking Japanese a lot. Believe it or not, just try it;-) 私は海外の友人に、日本語の話ことばを教えています。 私は、自分が外国語を学んだ経験から、会話を上達させるにはとにかく、できるだけたくさん話すことが必要だと信じています。ですので、皆さんが会話を上達させるための話し相手になり、上手に話せるようになるためのお手伝いをさせていただきます!

Speak natural Japanese with a former TV announcer 私は、楽しくリラックスした雰囲気でたくさん話せるレッスンを大切にしています。初心者の方でも安心してください。ゆっくり丁寧にお話しします。上級者の方には、より自然な表現や正しい発音を一緒に練習しましょう。テレビ局のアナウンサーとしての経験を生かして、正確で聞き取りやすい日本語の話し方もお伝えします。間違いを恐れず、どんどん話してくださいね。 I focus on creating lessons where you can speak comfortably and enjoyably. Beginners can feel safe—I speak slowly and clearly. For advanced learners, we can work on natural expressions and accurate pronunciation. With my experience as a TV announcer, I can help you speak clearly and confidently. Don’t worry about mistakes—just try to use Japanese as much as possible!

I have taught children as young as five years old. For children, I use puppets and power point slides to learn words and grammar together. Conversation lessons are fun tool for the Japanese learners to talk about their favorite things, recent news, or about their family and friends.

💬 “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 😄
