Ryoko
A lo largo de mi vida me he comunicado con muchos hispanohablantes y he ayudado a algunos principiantes con su japonés recurriendo al español cuando era necesario. También tengo experiencia con la preparación de exámenes de JLPT y de la beca de 文部科学省(もんぶかがくしょう). Hay una gran diferencia entre el español y el japonés, lo cual hace que el aprendizaje del japonés pueda resultarte muy difícil a veces. Sin embargo, a mí también me pasa lo mismo con el español, así que puedo entender tus dudas y tus dificultades y haré todo lo que pueda para ayudarte a solucionarlas.

Top 1% Japanese teachers in ITALKI. I passed the Japanese teaching certification exam and taught man When teaching Japanese, it is interesting to think about how to make studying fun and explain it in an easy-to-understand. It is also important to find out the challenges of the learners. It's fun to find their problems in pronunciation, writing, grammar, etc., and overcome them together. There are various types of students. I think teaching according to individuality is best. I also enjoy playing Japanese roles in business. 日本語を勉強する時、どうしたら楽しく勉強できるか、わかりやすく説明するかを考えるのがとても面白いです。また、学習者の課題を見つけるのも重要です。発音や、書き方、文法など、課題を見つけ、一緒に課題を克服するのが楽しいです。人は様々なタイプがあります。その人の個性に合わせて勉強することfが一番大切なことだと考えています。 また、ビジネス上の日本語のロールプレーなども楽しいですね。

Most of my students are repeat learners! (grammar text book : Minna no nihongo etc) I am very calm and very patient. I truly believe that we learn best and improve the most when we feel confident, relaxed and happy. My current students say that I am a very affable person. I promise that students will feel relaxed and conversant with me. My goal is for students to leave each class feeling like they learned as much as they possibly could and motivated to learn more! I have experience working for a major Japanese bank and insurance company, and have trained new employees. I can also teach business manners and traditional Japanese business thinking. I will make sure that you are confident in your Japanese ability at all times.
