A tip for improving your English speaking: Don't try to speak perfectly. Try to speak clearly. Short sentences are better than long, confusing ones. Example: "I sell flowers" vs "I help customers choose bouquets" Confidence grows with simple, real conversations.

This is the oil painting of "nishikigoi(錦鯉)", national fishes of Japan. In my hometown, there is the park you can see koi fishes. There is a pond not so big, and there are many koi fishes and other animals. For example, turtles, little fishes, wild ducks and so on. That view has native beauty and you can be relaxed to see it. It was so difficult to express the water's texture of clear and smooth. Since before, I felt like I want to drow a oil painting that has Japanese atmosphere. So, I'm totally satisfied with my work!

【CEO's Interview Coach】Are you making this common mistake in Japanese interviews? Hi, I'm SHIMPEI. With 25 years of experience as a CEO, I've interviewed hundreds of candidates. One question always comes up: "What is your strength? (あなたの強みは何ですか？)" Many candidates answer with: "I have strong leadership." "I have great communication skills." CEO's Reality Check: In a Japanese business context, these direct claims can actually sound weak or untrustworthy. Look at my lesson material. I teach the "Rules of Paraphrasing" (言い換えのルール) to transform these vague statements into powerful, evidence-based answers that impress Japanese managers. Don't just translate your resume. Let's build your professional logic together. Check my profile for an interview prep session! #JapaneseInterview #CareerJapan #BusinessJapanese #italki

She ___ she will be late. Write your answers in the comments! 💬
