šŸ”“ Passed JLPT N1 but still feel your Japanese is not natural enough? You know grammar and vocabulary, but: āœ” Discussions become unclear āœ” Interviews feel difficult āœ” Your Japanese sounds unnatural or childish āš–ļø With 14 years of experience at one of Japan’s top law firms, I train advanced learners to move from ā€œcorrect Japaneseā€ → ā€œprofessional communication.ā€ šŸ”¹ Teaching Philosophy Developing practical Japanese communication step by step šŸ”“ Two-Step Training Method ā‘  Logical & Concise Communication First, we build the ability to speak clearly and logically • organize ideas • explain key points • respond concisely • structure arguments ā‘” Sophisticated Japanese Expression Then we refine: • keigo (polite language) • nuance and tone • structured communication • persuasive expression → This allows you to develop Japanese that can: āœ” communicate clearly āœ” choose appropriate expressions āœ” deepen discussions šŸ”“ Hybrid Lessons My lessons combine: šŸ“š JLPT preparation šŸ’¬ real-world communication training This helps learners move from test Japanese to practical Japanese. šŸ”¹ Lesson Programs ā‘  Advanced Japanese for Professionals • Keigo training • Meetings and presentation practice • Discussion and negotiation skills • Facilitation training • Japanese corporate culture & business customs ā‘” Interview Preparation • Resume / CV guidance • Motivation statements & self-introduction correction • Mock interviews • Structuring answers that impress interviewers • Understanding differences between šŸ¢ Japanese companies šŸŒ global companies ā‘¢ JLPT N2 / N1 Preparation(Practical Approach) • Grammar strengthening • Reading comprehension training • Listening practice • Training that improves communication after passing JLPT šŸ”¹ What Makes My Lessons Different 🟠 Transform Passive Japanese → Active Japanese Many advanced learners understand Japanese but struggle to use it naturally. My lessons focus on turning knowledge into usable communication skills. 🟠 Teaching based on Second Language Acquisition (SLA) Lessons are designed based on language acquisition theory, helping students develop communication ability efficiently. 🟠 Real Japanese used in professional environments Training includes situations such as: • interviews • business discussions • presentations • negotiations • facilitation 🟠 Step-by-step communication training short logical responses → long structured explanations → persuasive communication šŸ”¹ Instructor Background Many of my students are professionals from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore working in international business environments. I have taught many professionals working in international environments, including: • lawyers • bankers • doctors • university professors • IT engineers • MBA graduates • government officials and embassy staff šŸ”“ 14 years at one of Japan’s top law firms (Mori Hamada & Matsumoto) • extensive experience using advanced Japanese in legal practice • experience supporting recruitment and hiring processes • coaching from an interviewer’s perspective 🟠 Able to explain differences between šŸ¢ Japanese companies šŸŒ international companies šŸ”“ Professional Calligraphy Artist(40+ years) Recipient of the Prime Minister’s Award in Japanese Calligraphy • cultural exchange with international leaders • deep understanding of Japanese language structure beauty of expression communication nuance šŸŽ“ Aoyama Gakuin University – Faculty of Law šŸŽ“ TOEIC 980 šŸŽ“ Certified Japanese Coach based on Second Language Acquisition (SLA) šŸ“š More than 3,000 lessons taught (1,000+ on AmazingTalker, plus corporate training and private lessons) šŸ“ˆ More than half of my students study with me for over one year and many continue for three years or more. šŸ”¹ Recommended for āœ” JLPT N2 – N1 learners āœ” Those who passed N1 but struggle to express ideas naturally āœ” Professionals who want to debate, present, and interview in Japanese āœ” Learners who want to master nuance and natural expression āœ” Students preparing for JLPT while improving practical communication Although many of my students are professionals, ✨ anyone serious about improving is welcome. šŸ”¹ Trial Lesson During the trial lesson: • Your Japanese level will be assessed • We analyze why communication difficulties occur • A personalized learning plan will be proposed You will clearly understand šŸ‘‰ what to work on next. Feel free to contact me! šŸ”¹ Lesson & Cancellation Policy āš ļø For lesson quality and safety, please keep your camera ON during lessons. ā° Lesson rescheduling or cancellation is allowed up to 12 hours before the lesson. If a cancellation occurs within 12 hours or on the same day, the lesson may be reported as completed on AmazingTalker with mutual agreement between the teacher and the student.
