About Me
italki teacher since Apr 22, 2020
Hi, I'm Saori. I live in Aichi, Japan but originally from Tochigi. I have lived in Germany for 3 years and India for 4 years. I have always enjoyed learning new cultures and talking to people, I have never met. My hobbies are traveling and karaoke. I have recently learnt how to wear a Kimono, so I am looking forward to wearing it by myself and going out in the near future.
Me as a Teacher
I am a native speaker who enjoys teaching spoken Japanese. I haven't taught Japanese in a classroom set up to adults, but have been a teacher with a Japanese elementary school. I love to answer language questions from my friends who are learning Japanese as a foreign language. Sometimes when I don't know the answer, I try to find them from the internet or a book. This attitude towards language learning will surely work well in my lesson. If you are looking at grammar specific lessons then I would recommend you to study from professional teachers.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are mainly based on daily conversation topics. I’d like you to talk in Japanese as much as possible, from my first lesson itself. From my English learning experience, I personally believe that talking in the new language you are learning on a daily basis helps to keep a space for it in your brain all the time. This makes it much easier for us to speak and leads to fluency. We feel more confident to join a conversation among natives. So join my lesson, and let’s talk about various topics whatever you are interested in, they could be routines, hobbies, beauty, food, weather, Japan, etc. We can also read and discuss a news article or a book together. See you soon!

Saori is such a great teacher! The time flies by so fast and, as if by magic, I find myself speaking Japanese the whole time! Thank you Saori!

Lessons with Saori are so much fun! Before I start I think "oh no, I can't speak Japanese at all", and by the time the lesson is over I'm having a great time speaking Japanese! Saori is patient, supportive, and really interesting to talk to! Thank you Saori!
