💕 Studying English
I’m still learning, so I often feel like I’m not good at it.
Therefore, I totally understand the feelings of Japanese learners well.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have been teaching Japanese since 2018 on italki. Since I began teaching, I’ve taught students, from beginners to advanced learners, from all over the world.
Also, I earned an official certification as a Japanese teacher after completing a 420-hour course on teaching Japanese as a second language.
I also teach at a Japanese conversation school in Osaka for students from all over the world.
I encourage you to speak freely and I will ask you many questions so that you can improve your Japanese listening and speaking skills, and I am 100% supportive and that I will do my best to help you study!!
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I believe that learning should be fun and enjoyable. I listen closely to what students want to learn and tailor the lessons to be efficient and effective. I assure students that making mistakes is part of the learning process and provide patient, positive feedback.
I also believe that a comfortable learning environment is important so I am patient and understanding. I’m totally comfortable with mistakes, pauses or shyness in a student's conversation.
Textbooks that I have..
Beginner: みんなの日本語初級Ⅰ・Ⅱ、中級へ行こう
Intermediate:ニューアプローチ(基礎編、完成編)、Try!N3
She was very helpful in working with me on my grammar, allowing me to attempt completing a sentence on my own then chiming in with suggestions on how to make it better. It's very helpful as these are things I wouldn't be able to figure out from books and it makes me more confident to speak without worrying about my mistakes.

Aiko sensei is great! She really pushes me and makes me think about things that I wouldn't normally think about. This is great being learning the language isn't enough with Japanese, Learning the way the people think, view and interpret things allows you to understand the language better and from a new perspective. Aiko sensei has been showing me that and I am very grateful. :)

I am happy to be learning new concepts that I had not covered when I tried to study Japanese on my own in the past. Having Aiko as a tutor has helped me a lot. She speaks to me a little more in Japanese each time, and encourages me to participate in question and answer sessions. I still find it difficult to answer questions spontaneously, but I want to meet the challenge and hope to get more confident over time. Thank you!

It was very good for me to get back to my lessons today. Aiko encourages me to read, and ask and answer questions during the lesson, and I feel like I make progress each time. Thank you always, and I would like to have more lessons in the near future.

Learning lessons by reading Hiragana and Katakana is very challenging, but it shows me that even concepts I am familiar with need to be learned much more thoroughly. Aiko is always patient and supportive, and a real pleasure to work with. Thank you!
