🌿 Trial Lesson｜Guided, Engaging Japanese Conversation & Consultation

This trial lesson is both a conversation lesson and a learning consultation.

I guide the conversation actively with supportive questions, so you’re never left alone or unsure what to say. The lesson is friendly and engaging — not silent or stiff.

We mainly speak Japanese, and I use English only when needed to clarify grammar or meaning.

Mistakes are corrected gently using recasts, so the flow of conversation stays natural and smooth.

✅ What we do in the trial lesson

• A guided conversation suited to your level
• Answers to your questions about Japanese, study methods, or next steps
• Discussion of what you want to talk about or learn
• News articles, topics you’re curious about, or your own materials are welcome

（この体験レッスンは学習相談もかねています。「こんな話をしたい」「これを勉強したい」など、気軽に教えてください）

✅ This lesson is good for you if…

• You want guidance but also want to speak
• You enjoy thoughtful but relaxed conversation
• You want to improve naturally, without pressure
• You value understanding over speed or performance
• You want a teacher who listens and asks good questions

✅ Not a good fit if…

• You’re mainly looking for the cheapest option
• You want the teacher to talk most of the time
• You prefer joke-heavy or very casual chatting
• You don’t feel ready to try speaking at all yet

✅ About the style

• Conversation-focused lessons
• Fun, friendly, and structured
• Natural, everyday Japanese (Tokyo accent)
• Japanese-first, with English support when needed

If you prefer, textbooks can also be used.
I can teach using Minna no Nihongo, GENKI, or Irodori.

（基本は日本語中心で進めます。必要なときは英語で補足します。教科書使用も可能です）

✅ Lesson length

A 30-minute trial lesson is recommended.
If you’re not sure you can commit yet, that’s completely OK.

Let’s start by simply touching Japanese together.

No pressure.
No rushing.
Just a supportive and enjoyable first step😊

The focus is not casual chatting, but listening, understanding, and thoughtful discussion.
Mistakes are corrected gently using recasts, so the flow of conversation is never broken.

This lesson is ideal for learners who want calm guidance and steady, natural improvement.

✅ Lesson flow

1. Before the lesson, I ask what kind of news topics you are interested in
(culture, society, local news, etc.).

2. I select one or two suitable news articles.
If you prefer, I can send the article link before the lesson.

3. During the lesson, I explain the news in Japanese, and we read the headline and key words together.

4. You share your thoughts and opinions, and we discuss the topic calmly, with supportive questions to help your ideas come out naturally.

✅ Notes

Topics are chosen from reliable, neutral media (NHK, BBC, CNN) as well as online and viral news from Yahoo Japan or social media.

We mainly focus on culture, social issues, and everyday topics.
Political or war-related topics are usually avoided, but they are welcome if the student requests them.

✅ Proofreading Japanese Article / 日本語文章の添削校正✏️ (B1–C2)

This lesson focuses on having a lot of conversation. It is especially recommended for those who want to practice speaking.

During the lesson, I will actively ask questions. Let's start with simple closed questions at first. Once you get used to it, I will ask various things with open questions.

If there are mistakes in pronunciation or grammar, I use a method called "recasts".

This is to rephrase the sentence that the student made a mistake in, making it a correct sentence, without directly pointing out that it is wrong.

For recasts example, if you say "He go to school every day", I will repeat "He goes to school every day" in Japanese.

By using this method, you do not have to interrupt the conversation.

I will make the conversation as fun and active as possible. So don't be afraid to make mistakes 😊 Let's talk a lot and gain confidence!

Words and phrases that come up in the conversation will be sent to the chat in real time. You can review the chat not only during the lesson but also after the lesson.

A little about me: I live on the beautiful island of Bali, Indonesia. I’m passionate about travel, photography, gaming, and of course, I’m a huge fan of anime and manga! I speak both English and Indonesian. Now, tell me all about yourself—I’d love to get to know you!

たくさん会話をすることにフォーカスしたレッスンです。特にスピーキングの練習をしたい人におすすめです。

レッスン中、私は積極的に質問をします。最初は簡単なクローズドクエッションから始めましょう。慣れてきたら、オープンクエッションで色々なことを尋ねます。

発音や文法の間違いがあった場合は、私は「リキャスト（recasts）」という方法を使います。

これは、生徒さんが間違えた文について、間違えていると直接は指摘せずに、正しい文にして言い直すことです。

例1：
生徒さん：私は大学に日本語を勉強します。
わたし：ああ、大学で日本語を勉強しますね

例2：
生徒さん：昨日、会社に行きます。
わたし：昨日、会社に行きましたね。

という風に。

この方法を使うので、生徒さんは話を中断する必要がありません。

私はできるだけ楽しく積極的に会話ができるようにします。ですから、間違えることを怖がらないでください😊

生徒さんのリクエストに応じて、細かくチェックすることもできます。沢山話をして自信を付けましょう！

会話に出てきた単語やフレーズは、リアルタイムでチャットに送ります。あなたはレッスン中だけでなく、レッスンが終わってからもチャットを見返して復習することができます。

私はインドネシアのバリ島に住んでいます。旅行とカメラとゲーム、もちろんアニメとマンガが大好きです。英語とインドネシア語を話します。あなたのことも沢山（たくさん）教えてください！

I guide you step by step with supportive questions, so you’re never left alone or rushed.

This lesson is for absolute beginners (A0) who are just starting with Japanese.
We practice hiragana and katakana together, slowly and gently.

✅ What we do in this lesson

• Learn basic hiragana sounds like あいうえお / かきくけこ
• Practice using hiragana cards in a fun, hands-on way
• Use only what you’ve learned to make real words
• Discover that even a few letters can already create many words

Even with just あいうえお・かきくけこ,
you can already make real Japanese words, for example:

・あい (love)
・いえ (house)
・かお (face)
・おか (hill)
・えき (station)

For katakana, we practice simple and familiar loanwords
made only with ア行・カ行, such as:

・ココア (cocoa)
・カカオ (cacao)
・コーラ (cola)

We follow a gentle step-by-step order:
hiragana（あいうえお） → katakana（カキクケコ） → basic numbers (いち、に、さん…)

Because these words are familiar, you can focus on reading and sound, not meaning.

Recommended for you if…

• You are still studying hiragana or katakana
• You’re not sure yet if you can study seriously
• You want a gentle, safe first step into Japanese

A 30-minute lesson is recommended.
If you’re not sure you can commit yet, that’s OK —
let’s just start by touching Japanese together.

No pressure. No rushing.
Just a calm and supportive start.
