About Me
italki teacher since May 3, 2021Interest topicFoodFashion & BeautyFilms & TV SeriesMedical & HealthcareTravel
I was born and raised in Osaka. Now I live in Osaka.
I love going to new places, seeing and experiencing new things!
My Work Experience
After graduating from a hair and makeup school, I worked as a makeup instructor at a beauty school. At that time, it was a great experience to lead my students to win a big contest. Later, at a department store
I worked in cosmetics sales. There I learned customer service and hospitality.
For the next 6 years, I was involved in data processing in clinical trials of pharmaceutical products.
As a Japanese language instructor, I have 2 years of experience teaching Japanese through a 420-hour Japanese language teacher training course.Me as a Teacher
I have completed the 420-hour Japanese Language Teacher Training Course at The World Japanese Language Center and have two years of experience teaching Japanese.I will be starting to teach Japanese in italki from April 2023.
My main goal in teaching Japanese is to use my previous experience as a teacher and my social background to assist Japanese language learners in achieving their goals.
As someone who has studied English as a second language, I understand the challenges of language learning, but I believe that my ability to teach from the learner's perspective is one of my strengths. Let's work hard together.My lessons & teaching style
Basically, I conduct my lessons in Japanese. （Other than beginner level lessons）
Lessons will be customized to your pace, ranging from beginner grammar to free conversation formats. Additionally, if you have any specific requests, we can also work on reading and pronunciation practice. If you have any sentences you want to confirm, I can correct your sentences.
I offer fun Japanese lessons tailored to your needs.

Having taken several lessons (both structured and conversation focused), I can say without a doubt that Noriko-sensei has been an immense help in my Japanese study. Not only is she a pleasant and fun person to talk to, she has been incredibly patient as I struggle to form sentences and has taken much time to put together voice memos, notes, and homework subsequent to lessons.
It is clear that Noriko-sensei puts the utmost effort into her teaching and I cannot recommend her enough as a teacher to anyone studying Japanese!

Sensei always spent so much time and effort to teaching. Sensei sent me materials to help me practice more listening and speaking and review what was taught .
Sensei speaks mostly Japanese even though she understands English very well and can explain in English only if needed.
so happy that I find myself feel more comfortable to speak more Japanese

I highly recommend Noriko-sensei to students who are new to having conversations in Japanese. She is patient, encouraging, and will help you make sentences if you are really stuck. She will send you your mistakes in a separate document for you to review, as well as an audio recording that can be used as listening or shadowing practice. Noriko-sensei has a list of common and important conversation topics, and we are slowly working our way through it. This keeps conversation fresh and also encourages me to push my boundaries; when having conversation lessons, it can be easy to fall into the trap of talking about the same thing over and over again. Since we decide the topic a few days in advance, this gives me time to prepare a few sentences and related vocabulary. Thank you for the fantastic conversation lesson, Noriko-sensei! いつも通り楽しかったです！☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆
