Here’s the text without line breaks: --- Hello! I'm Megumi Na from the Tohoku region of Japan❄️🏂️ I speak standard Japanese, Tohoku dialect, and English! I love outdoor activities, reading, and movies. 🍃📚️ I had a wonderful homestay in San Diego, USA, and have over 7 years of experience teaching Japanese and English to Japanese students. In 2024, I completed a Japanese teaching methods course. I specialize in grammar, essay writing, JLPT preparation, and helping students become fluent in Japanese while achieving their goals. My lessons are not just about language—I also enjoy sharing Japanese culture and travel tips. Check out my podcast on italki!!🎙️

Megumi-sensei is a wonderful teacher. She is kind and encouraging, and her lessons are always interesting and fun. Megumi provides the perfect amount of challenges to keep me motivated but also at ease, and I truly feel like I’m improving thanks to her guidance. She also shares her own Japan travelogues as part of the lesson materials, and these are especially interesting to read, since she highlights regional festivals and legends. I highly recommended Megumi-sensei for all levels of students!

Megumi先生のクラスは非常に面白く、日本の文化と自国の文化の違いを会話から理解することができるだけでなく、その違いの原因についての考えも得ることができます。先生の英語も素晴らしいです。複雑な文法や理解が難しい単語については、先生が交差して説明してくれて、初心者にとって非常に助かります。今年の7月にN2試験を受け、合格しました。先生のクラスに参加していただけて光栄です!私の会話、単語、文法の能力がすべて強化されました。どうもありがとうございます! Megumi's class is very interesting, as it not only allows you to understand the differences between Japanese culture and your own culture through dialogue, but also provides insights into the reasons for these differences. Her English is also excellent. For complex grammar and difficult vocabulary, Megumi explains by cross-referencing, which is very helpful for beginners. I took the JLPT-N2 in July this year and passed smoothly. I am very grateful for the opportunity to attend this class! My conversation, vocabulary, and grammar skills have all been strengthened. Thank you very much!

Megumi-san has helped for some time now. In the beginning, I struggled with both speaking and writing and while I learned the rough strokes of many aspects of Japanese grammar, applying them naturally in the right context was difficult. Now, writing messages and diaries has become easy and I can definitely make myself understood. Hence, we have recently started working on my casual vocabulary to go beyond the content typically taught in language classes. This is really a lot of fun! Suddenly, nuances become a lot clearer and it feels like I can get another step closer to truly understanding Japanese language. Thanks, Megumi-san for being patient and encouraging!

I am not studying for the JLPT, but I still really do recommend these classes even if you're not! You will encounter a lot of different vocabulary in a lot of different contexts, and even if you already kind of know what something means Megumi will help you understand on a deeper level. She's very patient and very skilled at teaching. You can challenge your reading abilities and pronunciation with instant feedback which is a great way to learn!

Megumi is a fantastic teacher. I love each lesson and feel like I learn a lot when we speak. She is very patient and understands the common challenges non-native speakers have when learning Japanese. She goes above and beyond to educate and inform - but is friendly and adapts her lessons to suit the needs of the student. When I started learning Japanese, I just wanted to learn enough to get by on a holiday. But since taking these lessons, I've fallen in love with the language and want to keep on learning beyond my travels. Megumi is in no small part responsible for this and it is a mark of an excellent teacher that she has made me love learning the language
