"The time for action is now. It's never too late to do something." Antoine de Saint Exupéry <English>***日本語下にあります I have struggled enough before being able to communicate fluently with English speakers! So I understand how you can learn and practice different languages while you are enjoying the process of learning. Besides being able to speak English, understanding and embodying different cultures are a whole another level. However, I have been exposed to people with different cultures and taken leadership in a global environment as a professional. I am very confident of teaching Japanese in English and vise versa. <日本語> 英語で流暢に意思疎通ができるまで本当に苦労しました。なので異なる言語をどのように勉強し練習しつつ、学ぶ過程の楽しさも身をもって感じています。英語で話せること以上に、違う文化を理解し体現することはとても難しいですが、グローバルな環境に触れ、リーダーシップの経験を活かし自信をもって英語と日本語の授業をお教えいたします。

Since 2015 here in italki! I have various Chinese courses designed for different purposes for you to choose from, please refer to the list below for your brief information or you are welcomed to book a trial lesson with me for more details. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 初めて中国語に接する方は、中国語をどのようにとらえているでしょうか。 「日本語と同じく漢字を使った言語なので、私たちにはとても馴染みやすい言葉かなー」 と思っている方はいらっしゃいますでしょうか。 ただし、同じ漢字でも、違う形ですし、同じ発音でも、その発音のアクセントによって、全然違う意味になってしまうなど、ニュアンスの違いを感じさせます。 私は、中国語を勉強されている方に、より効率的に勉強ができるようにお手伝いを致します。 発音、よく使う表現、文法等をゼロから進んで行きます。 語彙を少しずつ増やしていけば、自然と中国語を身につけられるようになるでしょうか。 文化、歴史、料理、映画など、皆様の中国に対する楽しみは様々でしょうが、 中国に旅行の際、お仕事の際に、実際に会話をして交流できるよう、 私が皆様の中国語の一助となれば幸いです。
