Hello.
My name is Azusa.
I’m from Chiba, Japan, and now live in Tokyo.
Also, I have lived in Osaka for about 15 years.
So I usually speak no accent Japanese, but if you are interested in “Kansaiben” (it means Kansai accent Japanese), I can speak it fluently too.
Just request me.
I have many hobbies.
I like eating, drinking with my friends, playing volleyball, watching movies, playing the flute, and traveling.
I've been to Canada, America, the Philippines, Korea, Singapore, and many places in Japan.
What's your hobby? Please tell me in Japanese!

日本の千葉県で生まれて、今は東京の新宿に住んでいます。
大阪にも15年間住んでいたので、標準語の他に関西弁も話すことができます。
私は趣味がたくさんあるので、みなさんと楽しい話をたくさんしたいと思っています。
よろしくお願いします(^^)
Me as a Teacher
I passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test, and I am a licensed professional teacher.
I am very passionate about teaching.
I know how hard it is to learn a foreign language because I’ve studied English abroad in Canada for a year.
So, in my lesson, don’t worry about making mistakes!
Just enjoy having conversations (^^)

私は1年間、カナダに英語留学をしたことがあるので、新しい言葉を学ぶ時の気持ちはよく分かります。
私のレッスンではたくさん間違っても大丈夫です!
少しずつ日本語に慣れていきましょう☆

The free conversation lessons with Azusa-sensei are really helping me to improve my listening and speaking skills. She is very friendly and easy to talk to. She always has a follow up
question prepared so the conversation flows really well. I also like that if you don't understand something she first tries to explain it in Japanese and only if you still didn't understand will she explain it in English.

Azusa san is a very encouraging teacher. I also appreciate that she is patient as I learn new nihongo concepts. Arigatou gozaimasu!

Azusa is an amazing teacher. I couldn't have asked for more. She knew exactly what I wanted from the beginning and constantly adapted to provide me with exactly the right amount of learning for me.
I was in an awkward spot where I had studied some Japanese in the past but forgot most of it. I was wanting to quickly ramp up my Japanese prior to a trip to Japan and took 5 lessons with Azusa. I did no studying and no homework (and that's completely my laziness), but through Azusa I was able to completely re-learn a lot of terms and phrases I knew in the past.
I can't recommend Azusa enough; thank you so much Azusa!!!

Lessons with Azusa are always helpful and fun. She is great at using Japanese at your level and making it easy to understand, and explaining when there are gaps.

We had a very interesting conversation, and it was neat to compare Christmas in Japan and the US. Azusa is a great teacher, always kind, patient, and fun.

Azusa is a master at using simple Japanese, and finding ways to explain without resorting to English often at all. She's helped so much with my listening comprehension as a result! Also, she's very helpful with reading practice.
