MA student in Japanese Language Education/ English OK Have you ever studied Japanese but still felt nervous about having a casual conversation with a Japanese person? I understand that feeling because I experienced it myself with English. I studied English for many years and could give presentations at work, but casual conversations were difficult. I then took one-on-one English lessons with more than 50 tutors. I bring what I learned from those experiences into my Japanese lessons. Let’s talk in Japanese! 🗣️ The key to successful learning: • We speak more when we feel safe and supported. • We remember more when we talk about things we care about. • We become more confident when we successfully express ourselves. You don’t need to prepare a topic for every lesson. We can use Japanese artworks as conversation starters. You don’t need to know anything about art! From there, we can talk about your experiences, memories, opinions, and interests. You’re not just studying Japanese—you’re using Japanese to express your own ideas. A safe place to make mistakes 😊 Mistakes are completely OK. Take your time, try again, or say something in a simpler way. I’ll support you and help you express yourself naturally. I have about three years of experience teaching Japanese, and I can also support you in English when needed. I’m currently pursuing a master’s degree in Japanese language education at one of the leading graduate schools, studying research-based approaches to language learning. I’m looking forward to meeting you in my class!

Absolute beginners are welcome😊 Let's study Japanese language and the culture behind it together! Born in Tokyo and raised in Kanagawa, I now call Oregon home after moving from Japan a few years ago. As an intercultural communication specialist (BA & MA), I love bridging cultures through language—especially with beginners! When not teaching, I’m baking, binge-watching shows, sewing, or traveling. I love animals (I have 6 fur babies), and your pets are welcome to join lessons anytime to make learning relaxed and fun. Let’s explore Japanese language *and* culture together! 東京生まれ、神奈川育ち、数年前からオレゴン在住です。国際文化学専攻（学士・修士）の経験を活かし、初心者にも優しく日本語と文化を教えています。レッスン以外ではお菓子作りや旅行、Netflix鑑賞をしていることが多いです。動物が好きなので（6匹飼っています）、ペットと一緒にレッスンに参加するのも大歓迎です！リラックスした雰囲気で、一緒に楽しく学びましょう！ I started teaching Japanese in 2013 as a volunteer in my hometown, and completed all the requirements of the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in 2020. I have met people from more than 30 countries through this teaching career so far and I really enjoy teaching the language and the culture. 2013年に地元でボランティア講師として日本語を教え始め、2020年に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。日本語を教えることを通じて今まで30カ国以上の人に出会い、日本語と日本の文化を教えることをとても楽しんでいます。 Because italki is mainly for private lessons, I would like to focus on what and how the students want to study. I think studying Japanese in Japanese is a bit too hard sometimes (especially for beginners), so I would love to help students by using English if needed.
