楽しくお話しましょう! 会話中に間違った表現を適切に修正し、より自然な日本語が使えるよう丁寧にサポートします。また、英語も話せるため、意思疎通が難しくなる心配はありませんのでご安心ください。私自身も英語を学んできたので、言語学習の難しさを理解しています。そのため、学習者の気持ちに寄り添ったレッスンを心がけています。 I will carefully support you by correcting any incorrect expressions during conversations and helping you use more natural Japanese. Since I can speak English, you don’t need to worry about any communication issues. I’ve been learning English myself, so I understand how challenging language learning can be. That’s why I aim to provide lessons that are empathetic to the learners’ feelings and needs.
