In this trial lesson, we'll get to know each other and discuss how I can help you achieve your learning goals. We'll have a general conversation to understand your needs and how best to support you.

Learn to improve your Japanese through speaking.
This course is designed for beginners including absolute beginners who are English speakers.
The lessons are based on the textbook "GENKI".

GENKI 1 is equivalent to JLPT N5, and GENKI 2 is equivalent to JLPT N4.

'Genki' is the one of the most popular textbook among US colleges.
Genki has all explanations written in English. So if you haven't studied Japanese before, don't worry.


 I create a Google Doc as a summary and share it with students. I also use Zoom as a communication tool so that students can save the day's chat before the lesson ends.  

If you have any questions, please let me know. I am looking forward to meeting you in the trial lesson.

This course is designed for adult learners (ages 18 and older).

General Japanese for Beginner -GENKI- JLPT(N5・N4)

このレッスンでは、中級レベルの学習者を対象に、テキスト『カルテット』を用いて「読む・書く・聴く・話す」の4技能をバランスよく習得することを目指します。

レッスンの流れとして、まずは文法の基礎をしっかりと固めます。その後、学んだ文法を応用しながら、読解、ライティング、そして会話と聴解問題へとステップアップしていきます。着実にステップを踏むことで、自然で正確な日本語運用能力を身につけることができます。

『カルテット I』を修了するとJLPT N3相当、『カルテット II』を修了するとN2相当の力が身につきます。なお、本レッスンは18歳以上の成人の方を対象としています。

私と一緒に、中級の壁を乗り越えて、より高度な日本語コミュニケーションを楽しみましょう！

This course is designed for intermediate learners to master the four key language skills—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—using the "QUARTET" textbook series.

Our lesson structure begins with a solid foundation in grammar. Once the grammar points are mastered, we proceed to reading comprehension, writing practice, and finally, conversation and listening exercises. By following this step-by-step approach, you will develop the ability to use natural and accurate Japanese in various contexts.

Completing "QUARTET I" is equivalent to the JLPT N3 level, and "QUARTET II" corresponds to the N2 level. Please note that this course is specifically for adult learners (ages 18 and older).

Let’s work together to break through the intermediate barrier and enjoy more advanced Japanese communication!

Have you always wanted to learn Japanese but weren't sure where to start?  

This course is designed specifically for absolute beginners who are ready to take their very first step.
