I'm happy to hear the news that students passed the JLPT. It's your turn next. Let's study with me Before I became a Japanese teacher, I was an English teacher at Junior High School in Japan for 15 years. I became interested in teaching Japanese after experiencing volunteer work. I like teaching and studying foreign languages. Last year I taught Japanese in Vietnam. I really enjoyed teaching there. 日本語の教師になる前は、日本の中学校で英語を15年間教えていました。 ボランティアを経験して、日本語を教えることに興味を持ちました。外国語を教えたり学んだりすることは面白いです。 昨年はベトナムで日本語を教えました。とても楽しい経験でした。

Why? I am a teacher in italki, I would like to respond to the feelings that everyone whom I met in italki wants to be good at Japanese.If you learn how to study Japanese with my correct method in a few our lessons and change how to study Japanese. you can dramatically improve your Japanese language skill by yourself. I think that Just being able to speak correct Japanese is meaningless. I want you to acquire practical Japanese that you can play an important role of various business situations of Japan with your ability of overcoming difficulties "language is power" So, in Japan where population decline is regarded as a problem, I really hope that you become a Japan New power !!

“A man who knows two languages is worth two men.” ― French Proverb I was a school teacher for several years so I've learned to teach live people and not just through the computer. I teach not only adults but children too! I have taught 7 year old kids who did not speak Japanese at all when we began. We started from Hiragana and worked up to words and sentences. I love teaching all levels, so of course beginners are welcome! I have textbooks allowing us to crossed between book based lessons and speaking lessons. But if you want to be fluent in Japanese, you should learn with textbook, and learn Japanese language! I'll teach you how to speak in a real conversational manner and not the formal helpful but not natural conversation method used by textbooks.

I can understand well what you students can't understand as I've studied many languages. わたしは日本語教育の学校に通い模擬授業も行いました。 日本語教育能力検定試験にも合格しました。 英語のほか、スペイン語、モンゴル語なども勉強しました。 いまはドイツ語を勉強しています。 これらの外国語の勉強の経験から、外国語を学ぶのに何が必要か、何がわからないのか、どうすれば理解できるのか、などのコツを知っています。 それはきっとあなたが日本語を学ぶときにも役に立つでしょう。 I went to a school where I was been trained Japanese teacher skills and methods including trial lessons. I passed "the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test" in 2019. I am a "Language geek". Studied English, Spanish, Mongolian and so on by myself. Studying German these days. I have the know-how what you need to study foreign language, what you don't understand, how you get to know it from my experiences of studying foreign languages. I believe it will be useful to you to study Japanese language.

Absolute Beginners are Welcome!! I will lead you in the right direction ;) I’m an enthusiastic, friendly, and encouraging teacher. It’s really important to me that you enjoy the classes and feel relaxed and comfortable. My approach to teaching is very hands-on. I focus on phrases, expressions, and even slangs that are used in real-life. I demonstrate things detailed and really well. I like using body language to help you understand better. When you understand the meaning and the use, I want you to create several situations to use them to fully understand the use. We do a lot of repeated exercise to imprint the language in your instinct!! My aim is to help you to express yourself naturally and effortlessly.

Free talk style lessons focused on "improving speaking" The important thing in learning a language is to continue. I'm the same language learner as you, so I understand how difficult it is to learn a new language. It's very difficult to continue every day, but I think the secret to continuing is to have fun and learn. In the lesson, practice speaking casual Japanese as if you were talking with your friends! I would like to help you enjoy studying Japanese. 言語を学ぶ上で大切なのは「継続すること」です。私もみなさんと同じ言語学習者なので、新しい言語を学ぶ大変さはすごくよく分かります。毎日続けることはとても難しいですが、楽しんで勉強することが継続の秘訣だと思います。 レッスンでは、友達と喋るような感覚でカジュアルな日本語を話す練習をしましょう!あなたが楽しんで日本語を勉強できるようにお手伝いしたいと思います。

Frequently asked questions about online Japanese classes

At italki, you can easily find the right Japanese teacher for you by using our search filters. You can filter teachers by their experience level, teaching style, availability, and even their location. We recommend taking a trial lesson with a few different teachers to see which one you feel most comfortable with and whose teaching style best matches your learning goals. During the trial lesson, you can ask the teacher about their teaching methods, experience, and availability. You can also check their profile for reviews from previous students to get an idea of their teaching effectiveness. Ultimately, finding the right Japanese tutor online is a personal decision, and it’s important to find someone you feel comfortable with and who can help you achieve your language learning goals.

Yes, the Japanese lessons offered by italki are suitable for beginners. In fact, many of the teachers specialize in teaching Japanese to beginners. They use a variety of teaching methods and materials to ensure that students with no prior knowledge of Japanese can learn effectively. For example, teachers may use textbooks, audio and video materials, and other resources to help students develop their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Additionally, some teachers may offer specialized courses that are designed specifically for beginners, such as introductory courses that focus on basic grammar and vocabulary. Regardless of your level of Japanese proficiency, italki offers a wide range of classes and teachers to help you achieve your language learning goals.

Yes, you can learn Japanese at your own pace with italki. Our online Japanese courses are designed to accommodate all levels of learners, including beginners, intermediate learners, and advanced learners. You can choose a Japanese teacher who is specialized in teaching Japanese to beginners if you are just starting out.

One of the biggest advantages of learning Japanese with italki is that you can set your own pace for learning. Unlike traditional language classes where you have to follow a fixed syllabus and pace, with italki, you can choose how many classes you want to take each week and how long you want to study. You can also choose to take a break from classes whenever you need to and come back to them when you are ready.

Additionally, with italki, you have the flexibility to choose the type of classes that suit your learning style and pace. You can choose one-on-one lessons or group classes, and you can choose to focus on specific areas of the language, such as speaking, listening, reading, or writing. This allows you to learn Japanese at your own pace and focus on the areas that are most important to you.

At italki, we understand that sometimes schedules can change, and we make it easy to reschedule or cancel your Japanese lessons. You can contact your teacher directly to reschedule a lesson if you need to. Please note that if you need to reschedule or cancel a lesson, you should do so at least 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for the lesson. If you cancel a lesson within 24 hours of the scheduled time, you will be charged for the lesson.

If you need to cancel a lesson for an emergency or unexpected event, please contact italki support as soon as possible to explain the situation. Our support team will work with you and your teacher to find a suitable solution.

It’s important to remember that building a good relationship with your Japanese teacher is key to success in your language learning journey, so open communication is encouraged.

At italki, there are multiple payment methods available for online Japanese lessons. You can pay using credit cards, PayPal, Alipay, or other methods depending on your location. To pay for a lesson, you need to purchase italki credits, which can then be used to pay for the lessons you take. The cost of each lesson depends on the teacher’s rate and the length of the lesson. Once you have enough credits, you can book a lesson with your chosen Japanese teacher and pay for it using your credits. After the lesson, your credits will be deducted based on the length of the lesson. You can also set up automatic payments so that you don’t need to manually purchase credits each time you book a lesson. It’s a simple and secure way to pay for online Japanese lessons on italki.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to learn Japanese from the comfort of your own home. Browse our selection of experienced Japanese tutors and enroll in your first lesson now!
