In case you are interested in learning Japanese but feel intimidated by the characters, this lesson is for you. Lesson materials can be written in alphabet (Romaji) for you. That way, you can focus on the grammar without straining your mind to read the sentences. Lesson materials are originally mine with most references coming from sources published by The Japan Foundation. A professionally structured lesson plan is guaranteed for you.

📚 𝐁𝐀𝐒𝐈𝐂 𝐉𝐀𝐏𝐀𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐄 (in Alphabet/Romaji) for 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 🌸🗾

This package is meant for those who have completed my first package, or for those who have learned Japanese before. Let me know through a trial lesson or through italki message what you have learned and what you expect to learn further from me. I will gladly help you pick up from where you left off, by customizing my lesson materials for you. A professionally structured lesson plan is guaranteed for you. Lesson materials are originally mine with most references coming from sources published by Japan Foundation. 

The whole lesson material in this package will be written in original characters: hiragana, katakana, and a little kanji, with English explanations.

🎥🌐 In each lesson, I'll share engaging video content to enhance your learning experience. To ensure crystal-clear audio and a seamless learning environment, I exclusively use my professional Zoom subscription. 💯 No more worrying about mid-lesson disconnections during 60 or 90-minute sessions! My paid Zoom account guarantees a smooth, uninterrupted learning journey from start to finish. 🚀📚

Note:
If you happen to notice this same lesson on my profile, it is because in the past there had been no option to offer one lesson with different packages. Therefore, I created another same lesson but with a different package. Now if I delete one of the lessons, it will affect my stats and the students currently subscribing to the package. I have no option but to keep a both. If you are a new student, you may book any of these two. I assure you the content and price are exactly the same.

🎯📝 CUSTOMIZED Lesson Plans for those who have learned Japanese before.

With over 20 years of experience as a Japanese-English-Indonesian interpreter and translator in a Japanese motorcycle manufacturing company, I offer specialized expertise on:

(1) Creating Manufacturing Process Analysis (MPA) that aligns with Japanese methodological thinking
(2) Specialized terminology and nuances in Japanese manufacturing processes

While individual Japanese professionals have unique personalities, my extensive experience has revealed a consistent underlying pattern in Japanese analytical approaches. Even the most technically brilliant analysis may be overlooked if it doesn't conform to Japanese methodological standards. To gain acceptance in Japanese professional environments, one must understand and adapt to their distinctive thought process.

I can provide guidance on manufacturing process terminology and conceptual frameworks. Discussions can be conducted in English or Indonesian. Please note: this is not a translation service. While digital translation tools can now easily convert text between languages, they cannot replicate the subtle logical restructuring required to truly resonate with Japanese professional perspectives.

During our discussion, you can confidently share relevant company data. I guarantee strict confidentiality—a fundamental professional standard for translators and interpreters.

If you enjoy stories, this class is perfect for you!
物語が好きな方に、このクラスはぴったりです！

READ
Goal: Understand the story
目標: 物語を理解する
After I confirm your lesson request, I’ll send you a short story to read before class. But don’t worry. If you don’t have time to read it beforehand, you’ll have a few minutes to read it during class. At this stage, you won’t be required to read the story aloud.
レッスンリクエストを確認後、事前に読んで頂けるように物語をお送りします。でもご安心下さい。事前に読む時間が取れなかった場合、レッスン中に数分間で読んで頂ける時間を設けます。この段階では物語を声に出して読む必要はありません。

ASSESS
Goal: Proof of understanding
目標: 理解の確認
Since I can’t read minds, I’ll ask a few questions about the story to ensure you’ve understood it. Don’t worry. It won’t feel like an interrogation! We’ll go through the questions in a fun and interactive way. If there are parts of the story you didn’t quite grasp, this will be the perfect time to discuss them.
物語をしっかり理解しているか確認する為、いくつか質問をさせて頂きます。でもご安心下さい。それを取り調べのようにはしません！楽しくインタラクティブに進めていきます。もし理解しきれていない部分があれば、このタイミングで一緒に解決しましょう。

TELL
Goal: Demonstrate understanding
目標: 理解を表現する
Here’s your chance to retell the story in your own words. Don’t worry. You don’t need to memorize it. As long as you’re not reading word for word, you’re welcome to refer to the text while telling the story.
今度は、物語を自分の言葉で話してみる時間です。でもご安心ください。物語を暗記する必要はありません。逐語的に読んでいない限り、テキストを見ながら物語を話しても大丈夫です。

EXERCISE
Goal: Improve understanding
目標: 理解の向上
At the end of the class, I’ll provide you with a homework assignment to complete before our next session. But don’t worry. If you have a busy week and can’t get it done, you’re still welcome in the next class.
クラスの最後には、次のレッスンまでに提出して頂く宿題をお渡しします。でもご安心下さい。もし1週間が忙しくて宿題が出来なくても、そのまま次のクラスに来てください。

This is my self-developed RATE Method!
これが私の開発した RATEメソッド です！

Lastly, don’t worry about the difficulty level of the stories. I have a variety of stories ranging from beginner to advanced levels. I promise you won’t feel bored, and I certainly won’t give you a headache.
最後に物語の難易度についてご心配しないで下さい。初心者から上級者向けまで、様々なレベルの物語を用意しています。退屈させませんし、頭を悩ません。

Learning English through Stories

This class is perfect for you if you’re looking to practice your English-speaking skills while receiving feedback or simply want to talk about a topic while improving your English.
You’re welcome to propose your preferred format for our conversations. For example, you can tell me a story. It doesn’t need to be a true story, nor grammatically perfect. Alternatively, if you prefer a two-way interaction, we can engage in role-playing or have a discussion. You can also ask me questions, and I’ll answer, giving you a chance to practice your listening skills.

No matter the format you choose, my teaching style prioritizes your flow of thought. I won’t interrupt you while you’re speaking. In role-play scenarios, I’ll stay in character and let the conversation progress naturally. While you talk, I’ll take notes. Once you’re finished, I’ll provide constructive feedback.

Even if it takes you extra time to form a single English sentence, I’ll patiently wait without jumping in to complete it for you. Instead, I’ll encourage you to work through it at your own pace. Over time, this practice will help you become faster and more confident in forming sentences.

このクラスは、英語を話す練習をしながらフィードバックを受けたい方、またはトピックについて話しながら英語力を向上させたい方に最適です。

会話の形式は自由に提案して下さい。例えば、何か物語を話していただく事も出来ます。それが実際にあった話である必要はありませんし、文法的に完璧である必要もありません。また、双方向のやり取りをご希望であれば、ロールプレイをしたり、ディスカッションを行ったりすることも可能です。質問をしていただき、それに私が答える形でリスニングの練習をする事も出来ます。

どの形式を選んでいただいても、私の指導スタイルは生徒の思考の流れを優先します。話している途中で遮ることはありません。ロールプレイの場合は、私が役に徹して会話を自然に進めます。話している間、私はノートを取り、話が終わった後で建設的なフィードバックをお伝えします。

1つの英語の文章を作るのに時間がかかっても、私は代わりに答えを出したりせず、忍耐強く待ちます。代わりに、生徒が自分のペースで文章を完成させるのをサポートします。この練習を続けることで、徐々に文章を作るスピードが上がり、自信を持って話せるようになるでしょう。
