Taichiro (たいちろう)
Beyond textbooks & AI: Master REAL Japanese & NATIVE mindset in relaxed chats with English support! As an English learner myself, I know speaking a new language is hard. That's why I create a relaxed space where you can confidently make mistakes. When needed, I'll support you with clear English. 【What I offer as your guide】 - The "Reality Check" Do natives actually use that textbook or anime phrase? I know that frustration. I'll be your reality check and explain what sounds natural in modern Japan. - The "Real Japan" With my background in Japanese corporate sales and living abroad, I share the truth about Japanese society. We can dive into the true nature of Japanese people, unique cultural mindsets, and real working conditions from both an "inside" and "outside" perspective.

Sayako
楽しく話しながら日本ついて学ぼう!英語OK‼️ 私はオンラインで1年以上、日本語を教えています。現在は約35名の生徒が継続して私のレッスンを受講してくれています。英語で論理的に日本語を説明できることが、私の大きな強みです。文法や表現の細かな違い、言葉のニュアンスなども、できるだけわかりやすく丁寧に説明することを心がけています。 私はもともと、言語や文化、人がどのように考えるかに強い興味があります。そのため、難しい日本語に関する質問や細かい違いについて一緒に考えることがとても好きです。ただ言葉を覚えるだけでなく、その背景にある文化や習慣、考え方も一緒に知ることで、より自然で深い理解につながると考えています。 私は敬語の知識にも自信があります。 以前、公的な場に関わる方々と接する機会のあるNGO団体に所属しており、その中で丁寧で適切な日本語表現を深く学びました。そうした経験を通して、日常会話で使う自然な丁寧語から、ビジネスの場で必要な敬語、さらにより格式の高い表現まで幅広く理解しています。 敬語は難しい分野ですが、場面ごとの違いやニュアンスも含めて、できるだけわかりやすく説明することができます。

Jack Takahashi Mao
U.S -Based Linguist, Medical Interpreter, TESOL Chinese/Japanese/English Professional Teacher I hold two Masters degrees from the University of Colorado - Japanese Language and Civilization, and Linguistics. The former provided me with extensive training in translation, interpretation, and literary analysis from both historical and modern perspectives. Linguistics offered me the theoretical and practical basis for teaching a foreign language. I am especially interested in applying phonetic and phonological strategies to classroom teaching in order to prepare students for a native-like pronunciation and intuition. I am a native Chinese Mandarin speaker with Japanese heritage. With the educational training mentioned above, I am capable of teaching both languages.
