Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

「褒めるばかりで、直してもらえない。」 度々お聞きします。ネイティブ並みを目指す方。発音アクセント・イントネーションを重点に、ていねいに指導・訓練します。 正確な文法、豊富な語彙を備えながら、話し方のせいで母語で話しているときの知的な印象が無くなり、子供っぽく感じる方にたくさんお会いしてきました。 発音矯正を重視し、洗練された話し方を練習します。そして教養や感性を伝えるためにはそれを表す語彙が必要ですので、たくさんの表現方法を覚えていただけるよう、より豊かな日本語へと導きます。 　言葉は知性、品性を表します。教養にふさわしい知的な話し方は訓練で身につけられます。 これから40年、50年日本語を使っていくのですから、今の流行りの話し方ではなく、一生使える日本語を覚えていただきます。目標はどこに出ても恥ずかしくない言葉使いを身に着けていただくことです。 　作文コースではプロの文筆家として、日本語で表現をしたい方、論文、大切な人への手紙など、伝えたいことを力強く支援します。ネイティブチェックも高い品質で行います。 With my experience as a presenter in NHK programs, I can teach you how to present yourself. Kimberleeさんからいただいたレビュー 今日もありがとうございました。大変勉強になりました。It is difficult to find a teacher who not only gives precise and detailed feedback on pitch, intonation, and pacing, but provides corrections. Many instructors don't correct students on pronunciation, or if they do they have trouble articulating how mistakes should be corrected. Mao-sensei always listens carefully and provides precise feedback. She is patient and kind, but does not let mistakes "slide;" something which I really appreciate.I look forward to continuing my studies, and hopefully learning more work phrases to help me in my daily life.

My mother-tongue is Korean. But I've learned English, Japanese and Chinese. So I truly understand how difficult learning languages is. I'm very positive, patient and enthusiastic. And I prepare each lesson only for A student. For example, if a student has a tendency to make mistakes using the present perfect, I usually prepare more focused lessons that he or she can repeatedly practice using the present perfect. I believe you could learn more through the mistakes that you make. And I will be there for you to correct or coach whenever you need it. You are going to be very very proud of yourself in the end.
