Greetings!
Thanks for checking out my profile.
My name is Miki. I was born and raised in Japan. I'm here because I find it rewarding to be able to help people improve Japanese and enjoy teaching. I worked as a TA at a university in the US so I have experience helping with university courses.
Me as a Teacher
I have taught children as young as five years old. For children, I use puppets and power point slides to learn words and grammar together. Conversation lessons are fun tool for the Japanese learners to talk about their favorite things, recent news, or about their family and friends.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are the place for people to practice safely without judgements. You are welcomed to talk about any topics of your interest in Japanese, and I will type out words and phrases that suit the most so that you can review after the class. However, if the topic does not align with the italki community guidelines, I will have to end the lesson immediately and your account will be reported.
Lessons with cancellations within 24 hours and no show will be charged in full unless emergency.

Mimi’s style is exactly what I was looking for. She is patient and encouraging and her English is outstanding, which makes it easy for me to understand her explanations. She is also fun and has a good sense of humor, which helps make lessons enjoyable.

In a short trial lesson she already helped me tackle my learning problems and helped me express myself better! I know a full lesson would be twice as fruitful so I can easily recommend her classes!

Miki is very patient. She has a good feeling for when to help out when you’re stuck and when to let you try to think for yourself. みきさん、今日僕の日本語はとても悪かった気がするけど、みきさんは親切に待ってた。いつもありがとうございます!

This was a great introductory lesson! Miki's English is terrific, which makes it easier for me to ask questions and understand explanations. She is kind, enthusiastic and knowledgable. I look forward to working with her!
