About Me

<Self-introduction>
I am Hideyuki Toda, from Japan!
I have experiences living in different countries such as United States and the U.K. when I was a student.
As a professional, I've lived and worked for Goldman Sachs, an distinguished U.S. bank in Singapore over 2 years.
<Hobbies>
1. Love traveling so I've been to over 12 different countries! It is just such a pleasure to learn different culture and lifestyle as well as languages and food.
2. Skateboarding and Surfing are another my passion. I live near by the coast so it is just as essential as breathing !lol
3. Music is another part of my favorite thing. Expressing myself trough singing and playing the piano and guitar is just satisfying!Me as a Teacher
<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。My lessons & teaching style
<Purpose>
The purposes in my classes are having FUN and being PRACTICAL.
<Goal>
So as to fulfill them, class will be individualized for each student based on their needs and desires. Additionally, deep understanding of different culture is another emphasis in my class because simply knowing a language does not mean you can communicate well with natives. You need to understand culture!
<Lesson>
I know some of you feel bored learning by only textbook.
If you are anime lover, we can watch actual videos or use manga!
If you are into music, we can used the lyrics of the Japanese song.
If you are finding your job, I can set up business interviews.
Your class will be adjusted just the way you want!My teaching material

Hide Sensei is an excellent mentor! He shows that he not only knows the language but also deeply understands its mechanics, its history, and its nuances. On top of that, he uses excellent examples and parallels in English to help me understand and apply how to use what he just taught me.

Teacher Hide is very kind and enthusiastic! And he encourages me a lot. During first class, he asked about my circumstances to personalize our class. He also taught me some phrases and show me homework of this week and stuff of next lesson’s previewing. I feel very comfortable and professional of his first class!

Hide-sensei is incredibly dedicated, responsive, and patient. He excels at breaking down complex concepts into simple, understandable terms, ensuring that you get the most out of your learning experience.
I strongly recommend taking Japanese classes with him.
You will enjoy the journey and also make significant progress with every lesson.

I was struggling at first to understand some key Japanese grammar principles, and Hide Sensei explained it in a way that made it crystal clear to me on what the principles mean and how to use them, all in just one lesson! Thank you!
