Currently in Vietnam: Class hours may vary based on my location. I’m not big on studying per se. I believe we get good at what we are motivated to do. Language learning is not a simple process, and there are lots of ways to do it. If your focus is conversation and practical use, my lessons would be perfect for you. I do have teacher certification as a Japanese instructor. And I can also help explain passages and patterns in English. I will use conversation starters and textbooks to get you speaking, but your italki time is your time. We will talk about issues and do practical exercises that you are interested in.

I teach grammar to beginner and intermediate students using textbooks like "Minna no Nihongo" and "Dekiru Nihongo." For complete beginners, I start with hiragana and katakana, followed by kanji lessons using "Basic Kanji." I also assign writing and reading homework. I can customize lessons based on your goals, so feel free to reach out. In conversation practice, I’ll help you improve natural expressions and communication with native speakers. Let’s learn together!

I believe that the easy point and difficult point in learning Japanese through teaching Japanese to many foreigners living in Japan. However, I’ll make you understand the complex part using the secret way that I got from my experiences. In learning languages, I think it’s essential to enjoy using them and like their culture. Therefore, I’ll give you a class proving both of them. Also, it’s important to make a mistake to speak new languages, don’t be afraid of it, and keep using Japanese! 多くの日本在住の外国人に日本語を教えてきて、日本語の簡単なところと難しい所を理解しているつもりです。しかしながら、今までの経験で得た独自の方法で難しい所を理解させるように努めます。私個人としては言語を学ぶにおいて大切なことはその言葉を使うことを楽しむこととその国の文化を好きになることだと思っているので、その二つを提供できるクラスを行います。また、言語を学ぶにおいて間違えることは大切なことなので、間違いを恐

Overall 1000+ lessons experience with beginners and adolescents in learning Mandarin and German. Working as a German and Mandarin teacher one on one, I teach international students ranging from kids to adults, beginners to advanced. Currently I'm helping my students prepare for TELC, HSK and school tests. Wir können auch gerne Konversationen üben. Having learnt Japanese on an online platform myself and then passed the JLPT N1 exam, I know exactly how it works to teach students via the internet. Moreover, I have helped many students succeed in their job interview. Being totally aware of the difficulties and challenges to master a foreign language, I treat my students with great patience and empathy. 試験に受かってもまだ相応しいレベルの会話が難しいと感じますか。是非ドイツ語の日常会話の授業で一緒に練習してみてください。学生们都说我非常有耐心。

🍣Beginner & Practical Japanese 🍜Professional in teaching at a university 🍙4 years Private coaching 1) I've been a Japanese teacher at a college school in the US Air Force base in Japan. 2) My primary focus is to build vocabulary so students can boldly lead discussions, and speak fluently. 3) I've trained exchange students, engineers, college students, children, and so on. 4) I've also worked as a guesthouse staff and office worker in Japan, so I'm used to explaining Japanese culture and manners to tourists and expatriates :) 5) I was ever praised by my friends and students for my teaching methods. As a result, most of my friends were able to pass the JLPT-N1 and N2 test with my support and some of them are working as skilled workers in Japan.
