こんにちは！ I'm KIKO🌻 I started posting on IG @japanese_with_kiko
I got a Japanese teaching license in 2021, I've been teaching online and at universities. I am patient and passionate about teaching.
I can be a good teacher because I’ve learned foreign languages—not only English and Spanish, I know how wonderful it is to learn new languages and explore different cultures. I think the best part of learning a language is communicating with local people. That’s why my lessons focus on conversation and provide students with plenty of opportunities to practice speaking.

🧸Summer course Visiting lecturer Witelon University in PolandMy lessons & teaching style
【Basic grammar】You can learn "practically" and "enjoyably" using original slides based on the "Genki". My original materials are very popular among students. I offer support in English or Spanish, so even absolute beginner don't worry! If you want to start from 0 and aim to speak REAL JAPANESE, I can help you. I will accompany your journey towards achieving your goals.
【会話】初級から教科書を使わない会話のみのクラスも提供しています。文法は一人で学べますが、会話は一人では上達できないので、レッスンでたくさんアウトプットしてください。フリートークまたはトピックトークをしながら、より自然な表現や間違いがあれば教えます。また、記事や日本文化のパワーポイントも用意しているので、リクエストがあれば教えてください。My teaching material

EN: The first lesson with Kiko-san was terrific and lots of fun! She is well-prepared and easy to talk to. I was surprised by the fact that she organized PowerPoint slides for the lesson. Not too many teachers do that.
ESP: La primera lectura con Kiko-san fue increíble y muy divertida. Además, Kiko-san también preparó plantillas de PowerPoint para la lectura en lugar de simplemente usar el texto Genki. La verdad es que eso me sorprendió, ya que no es común en mi experiencia con otros maestros. ¡La recomiendo al 100%!

Another great lesson. Kiko sensei provides an environment where mistakes are okay and I think that's very important for growth.

I really appreciate the first lesson with Kiko-san. It was really helpful with her going through the different conjugations and also refresh my vocabulary. More importantly, I appreciate her patience with me as I am still struggling with memorizing some of the different adjectives, etc. I felt I was in good hands with her :)
