Hi, I'm Dina. I'm half Japanese and half Indonesian who born and raised in Japan. I love learning languages and cultures, listening to music and travel around the world. I studied English course in KGU in Osaka and met overseas students I realized that it's hard to teach Japanese for non Japanese people, so I studied education of Japanese language. After graduated uni, I went to Indonesia as an assistant of Japanese language teacher in high school. It's my passion and pleasure to help you learning Japanese and culture. I've been to Indonesia, Australia, U.S.A, Norway, England, Italy, Croatia, France, Spain, Mexico, Colombia. and now, I'm into dance Salsa and Bachata. I love latin music :)

My lessons & teaching style

~Daily Japanese Conversation~ I want my class is like your third place. We work and relax in home. Sometimes we want to go to coffee shop and have a little chat with friend. I am a tutor, but also want to be like your Japanese friend. My class is depends on what you want to learn. ①　Informal tutoring Maybe you learned formal style in your school or by yourself. Please output what you learned in our conversation. I'll support you sound more natural and casual. You can choose topic whatever you want! Ex. My favorite movies Best 10 Japanese Slung Culture differences ②　Using genki text book We do some exercises, and after that we do daily conversation.

I think I found the perfect teacher! She listened to ability and then adapted her teaching style, she writes the words down so I am able to see and hear Japanese, she corrects sentence structure and she's really fun to have a lesson with. I felt really comfortable in Dina's Lesson! ありがとうござます！！

As I shared before, I truly enjoy Dina-San's lessons. The casual format makes the lessons relaxed and fun :-). For someone who has struggled with learning languages, I appreciate Dina-San's patience, understanding, and guidance. I highly recommend Dina-San to students of all levels.

Had a wonderful second lesson with Dina-さん! I really enjoy the energy she brings into our lessons! She gently suggests the right words and grammar that I'm looking for when I'm struggling to find them and writes the words down for me so I can read them and review later! Thank you so much!
