こんにちは! 日本語教師のRikaです。 I'm a professional and an experienced native Japanese teacher.
1999-2006 - I taught in Yokohama.
2007-2021 - I taught in the Bay Area of California.
2021- Currently, I'm teaching in Yokohama online.
I love traveling and wine🍷. I love watching drama and anime, especially SPY×FAMILY and Demon Slayer. I love interacting with people around the world. I used to go out with my students, have parties, and enjoy gathering all my students. I love to keep a good relationship with my students!

Ich als Lehrkraft
I specialize in beginners to intermediate-level adults with experience taking my students to fluency (JLPT 1).
I am a patient and friendly person. I'd love to support your Japanese learning, teach grammar, how to speak naturally, improve your conversation skills, etc., to take your Japanese to the next level!

If there is another lesson time you prefer, please send me a message. I take the time to prepare each lesson with you in mind carefully.

Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My teaching uses materials based on the "Marugoto," "Genki," "Irodori," etc for beginnings. Still, I combine other materials for more practice and to be able to understand what kind of situation to use. Use Drama and Anime for the upper beginners.
It depends on your goal and interest. We try many other things!
😀 Common Japanese phrases for conversation situations.
📝 Grammar exercises.
👄 Pronunciation and intonation practice to speak like a native.
📰 Reading Japanese books or news articles.
🎓 Prepare JLPT exam.
👀 Understand Movies, dramas, Anime, YouTube, etc.
I will customize it for your needs and goals.

Rika is a wonderful teacher. After a difficult day at work, I was feeling a little off during my lesson this evening, but Rika was so patient and understanding and by the end, I felt much better!
ありがとうございました、先生!

I've been taking some lessons with Rika to prepare for my trip to Japan. The lessons were nicely customized around activities I was planning to do, and the study material was helpful for me to practice outside of lessons. I feel a lot better equipped to interact with people when I get there.
