Let's have fun and study together ♪😘 ★登録日本語教員★I am a native Japanese speaker♪ I teach Japanese to international students at a Japanese language school. My hobbies are traveling, watching movies, and eating! I have visited more than 30 countries on my trip. I am also studying English on my own. I have also studied Dutch and German. (Now I only remember simple words and greetings) I can't speak English well yet, but I'm doing my best. I am looking forward to meeting people from various countries! I'm really excited to get to know people all over the world through italki. I want the lessons to be interesting and fun as you learn Japanese. I have studied English on my own and realized how much more you can enjoy life when you speak another language. I know the difficulty of learning other languages,And so I hope to encourage you as you learn Japanese. Through my lesson, I hope you can find joy in learning and communicating. I mainly use a book called "できる日本語", which is popular among international students and people studying Japanese. Japanese and English differ in sentence structure and language nuances. The most important aspects of learning Japanese are listening, reading, and speaking frequently. You can learn one-on-one as if you were studying at a language school! It will be a very valuable experience! Don't be afraid to make a mistake. Let's have fun lessons together!

Your Go-To Expert for GENKI! Absolute beginners welcome—personalized support just for you. Hello, everyone! I’m Yukari, your Japanese language tutor. If you want to start learning Japanese but don't know where to begin, you are in the right place! As a patient and supportive teacher, I specialize in teaching absolute beginners using "GENKI." I believe the key to mastering a language is the cycle of input, output, and self-study. 🟢 Input: I will help you master grammar, expressions, and vocabulary clearly using the textbook. 🟡 Output: I will guide you through practical conversation in a fun, relaxed atmosphere without fearing mistakes! 🟠 Self-study: Since self-study outside of class is essential for language acquisition, I will provide guidance on how to study effectively to maximize our lessons. I tailor my lessons to fit your unique pace and style. Even if you are starting from absolute zero, you will be able to hold basic daily conversations after completing GENKI 1 and 2. Let’s begin your Japanese learning journey together! 🌻 About Me 🌻 I lived in the US for three years with my family. Since returning, I’ve been a Japanese language volunteer and a host family. As a former nurse, I am patient and a dedicated listener.

GENKI/Travel Japanese/Japanese Study Coaching (Build a Daily Study Habit)✏️ Hi, I'm Kanako! I'm a professional Japanese teacher based in Tokyo, and I've been teaching Japanese since 2020. Before becoming a teacher, I lived in Canada for three years for study and work. Outside of teaching, I enjoy traveling around Japan, discovering local food, trying new recipes, and baking. If you love Japan, Japanese food, or travel, I'm sure we'll have plenty to talk about! In my lessons, I create a relaxed and supportive environment where you can learn at your own pace. I don't rush my students, and I enjoy getting to know them personally. My lessons usually start with free conversation and a quick review of homework or a quiz. Then, we'll learn new grammar and practice using it in conversation. I encourage you to think for yourself and give hints when needed, while providing lesson notes and support along the way. Many of my students have continued studying with me for years. They often describe me as patient, friendly, and easy to talk to. You may notice that some of my reviews are older. I took some time away from italki during maternity leave and focused on teaching outside the platform. I'm now gradually reopening my schedule and accepting a limited number of students again. If you're looking for a patient and supportive teacher who will respect your pace while gently guiding you toward your goals, I'd love to meet you! I look forward to seeing you in class!
