【Who I am】 🌼 Native Japanese — grew up in Japan 🌼 Fluent in English — lived overseas for 9 years 🌼 1,420 hours taught on AmazingTalker 🌼 3 years experience as a private tutor (online & offline) 🌼 4 years teaching English to children 🌼 Worked at a foreign company 🌼 Traveled to 15+ countries ✈️ 🌼 Experienced with students of all ages 【How I teach】 🧸Beginners are very welcome! 🌸 I use Japanese as much as possible during lessons, but I can explain in English when needed. To get the most out of this class, students should be able to understand either basic English or Japanese. 🧸 I'm cheerful, optimistic, and good at creating a relaxed atmosphere where you feel comfortable speaking. ⚠️I tailor my lessons to your level: I use English to explain grammar clearly for beginners, but for upper-level students, no worries—we will use Japanese! Please note that I do not speak Chinese, so if you require explanations in Chinese, I kindly ask that you look for another teacher. Thank you for your understanding! 【Lesson Options】 🧑 Adults 👩 ✨ Suitable for all levels, from beginner to advanced! ✨ JLPT preparation available for all levels (N5–N1)! 📗 Beginner (JLPT N5) 📗 • Start with Hiragana and Katakana • Mainly use Genki 1 • Learn self-introductions and basic daily conversations • Practice fundamental grammar and pronunciation step by step 📙 Elementary (JLPT N4) 📙 • Mainly use Genki 1 & 2 • Conversation practice using newly learned grammar • Short writing assignments to strengthen output skills • Expand practical expressions for everyday life 📘 Intermediate (JLPT N3) 📘 • Use intermediate-level materials tailored to your needs • Focus on developing natural communication skills • Free-talk sessions based on various topics • Improve vocabulary, reading, listening, and speaking skills • Receive feedback on grammar mistakes and new vocabulary after class 📕 Advanced (JLPT N2–N1) 📕 • Discussions based on news articles and current events • Opinion-sharing and debate practice • Natural honorific expressions and business Japanese • Advanced reading, writing, and presentation practice • Learn native-like expressions and nuances 📝 JLPT Preparation • Support for all levels from N5 to N1 • Comprehensive training in grammar, vocabulary, reading, and listening • Customized lessons based on your strengths and weaknesses • Practice questions and test-taking strategies 💡 Other Lesson Options • Self-introductions and greetings • Japanese for travel • Japanese folktales (Princess Kaguya, The Grateful Crane, etc.) • Job interview preparation • Essay writing and speech practice • Pronunciation training • News reading and discussion • Learning Japanese through Japanese recipes • Song lyrics and expression analysis • Free conversation • Business Japanese • Email and chat correction ＊Requests are always welcome! 🌸 👦 Children (Ages 5–15) 👶 🎨 Learn Japanese in a fun and engaging way through picture cards, games, and songs! 🌟 Lesson Content • Hiragana and Katakana • Basic conversations and greetings • Vocabulary building • Picture book reading • Japanese culture and seasonal events • Age-appropriate and level-based activities I strive to create a fun and positive learning environment where children can feel, “Learning Japanese is fun!” 😊 🐶 Looking forward to seeing you in a trial lesson! 🐶 ❓ About the 25-minute trial lesson ➡️ Self-introduction ➡️ Current level assessment ➡️ Lesson introduction ➡️ Mini lesson ⚠️ Lesson Policies 📌If you need to reschedule or cancel a booked lesson, please do so at least 12 hours before the lesson starts.
