First of all, thank you so much for your interest in my class! How are you doing with your Japanese?
初めに興味を持っていただきありがとうございます。英語の調子はどうでしょうか？笑
***日本語の紹介文は下にあります！

<Opening>
My purpose was to create deep friendships across the world with English when I was younger. However, I have struggled especially with how I could enjoy learning English. Striving to understand my way of learning English with joy, I eventually was able to bond beautiful friendships across the globe and was able to work in Singapore for an American bank as well. 
So I sincerely understand how sometimes the purpose of learning with joy and living in a new part of the world with Japanese becomes mundane and daunting in reality with boring textbooks and overwhelming amounts of Kanji and your passion becomes less with the times gone by...but hang in there!
<About trial class>
 I won't let you feel that way! That is why I believe that classes should be created and designed individually because every learner has a unique personality and their best way to enjoy a learning process. In this trial lesson, I'd like to understand you and your goal for Japanese as much as possible so following classes are individualized based on your interest and preference! In the class, I hope you also know more about me, too. Thank you for reading and I`m looking forward to seeing you in the class.

英語を学びたい方、お待たせしました！
<初めに>
私は日本生まれの日本育ちです。当時は英語話せるのがかっこいい、世界中に友達を作りたい、そんな思いで真剣に学び始めました。しかし現実は英語を学びたいのに身につかない、つまらない、と感じることが多かったです。ですが試行錯誤し英語を習得、今では世界中の素晴らしい友情を結ぶと共にシンガポールで米国の投資銀行での職務も経験することができました。そんな経験も通しているので、英語を諦めたり、苦手意識があるのもすごくわかります。
<体験レッスンについて>
でも大丈夫です！私と一緒にまずは楽しく、学びましょう。成長していくプロセスの中で必ず自信がついて話せるよう全力で応援します！
私の授業スタイルの前提として、一人一人違う個性がありユニークです。もちろんそれは楽しみ方も一緒です。なので、お一人お一人に合った授業スタイルとゴールに向かうペースがそれぞれあるべきと感じます。体験レッスンでは、受講者の方の興味や好み、要望を知る機会にしたいと考えています。そして後の授業ではお一人に寄り添ったデザインをもとに行いたいと考えています。また、この文章だけで伝えきれないので、私のことももっと体験レッスンの中で知っていただければ幸いです。最後までご拝読ありがとうございました。授業でお会いできることを楽しみにしています。

[Intermediate to Advanced] From nervous to eloquent: Japanese speaking transformed!

I understand: 
It is hard to take a first step when you start to learn a new language. 
We first try Duolingo and realize it doesn't take us anywhere but random words that stick our mind.lol
Now we search in the internet and what we see is all the complicated grammar and expressions and realize learning Japanese is nearly impossible.

<About Class >
In this lesson, you will learn English from the beginning and be taught carefully and clearly until you can speak with native speakers! 

Based on my experience of studying abroad twice in the U.S. and the U.K. and as a professional working overseas for a global company, I will teach not only English grammar but also introduce foreign cultures and customs in a comprehensive, practical and fun way until you can communicate naturally with native English speakers in a real sense. The course is practical and enjoyable. 

<Target Students >
I teach students English from zero, so I teach a wide range of students from those who want to start learning English from a scratch to those who want to learn and improve their English!

Please feel free to ask questions. I am looking forward to seeing you in class ^^!

不安から自信を持って英語を話せるようになる！：初心者から上級者まで

<Who fits in this class?>
This course is available for those who wanna take a group lesson with your friends and family! The only condition is that you are around the same level so that each one of you can feel comfortable!

<Basic Framework>
1. Setting Your Personal Goal- Goal is your compass.
 By setting your personal goal, you are the on the fastest track and will never be lost! Whether it is vague or clear, it does not matter. I just want to speak Japanese for a survival level, I want to make new friends with Japanese, I want to speak like a native, I want to work  and use Japanese...etc. It could be anything, but let`s embark your journey with setting a goal and I got your back!

2. Theme of a Class- Make a class like you wanted to have!
 If you are interested in Anime, then the theme of a class is Anime and Manga! Meanwhile, I would set some questions and practice to learn new vocabularies and grammar from them. Your homework might be reading manga/ watching anime! how fun would that be? This is just an example and it could be a different way. 
The intention is to maximize your joy and motivation while practically learning Japanese vocabularies and grammar.

3. Reflect Your Growth- It is impactful to see how much you have got better as this is a great resource for motivation. HOWEVER, we grow little by little in reality and it is difficult to see your growth until you get to see a big chance/results. That is why I want to support you by helping you see your growth even a bit so you can appreciate your efforts and enjoy in further learning process.  I will send you reflective and encouraging messages so that you will get to hear how much you have grown! Let us grow together.

これから先生として日本語を教えたい方
教えているけど伸び悩んでいる先生


僕自身、始めたころは何も教えた経験も教師の資格もない状態でcommunity tutor としてitalkiで始めました。そんな中、やっと予約してくれた生徒の前ではいつも緊張して、「どう教えよう、何を教えよう」と不安が募り、最後には思ったように喜んでもらえる授業が出来ずにいました。そんな私でしたが今では生徒に自信をもって大満足してもらえるように。自分自身も楽しく、当時は低い設定の値段でしたが今は自分でも満足の値段で授業を受けてもらえるようになりました。

＜授業内容＞
そもそもどうやって授業を教えたらいいか分からなくて不安...
もっと授業を受けてもらいたいけど、どうすればいいかわからない...
値段設定をあげたいけど、生徒が減るかもしれなくてこわい...
授業でどうしたら楽しんでもらえるのか悩んでいる...

など１つ１つの問題についての相談から実行に移し、途中経過から次なる課題への取り組みまで全て自分自身が培ったノウハウでコーチングするなかでより理想のスタイルで教えられることを応援します。ですから初めて授業を教える方も、経験者の方もどうぞ！
