Ippei (いっぺい、一平)
Friendly &Flexible. にほんごをまなぼう、にほんごでまなぼう。 During my time in America, as a Teaching Assistant, I was teaching ‘history of cinema’ and practical ‘basic filmmaking ‘ to American college students. Also, I joined activities to teach Japanese culture and language to people. Since my returning to Japan, I have had many opportunities to interact with many local people from all over the world when I visit abroad for my job of movie making. Throughout these experiences, I have been feeling keenly about “the joy and difficulty of verbal communication. With this kind of experience, I can support and lead each student to learn Japanese language.

Jumpei
With 5000+ hours of experience in teaching, I've helped great learners find their passion and voice My strong point is.. my memory! You wouldn't believe it but I remember what I taught you more than you do, although honestly, you are not only my student. This makes it easy for me to plan what we should do in every lesson and you don’t need to worry if you didn’t have time to review because we will review a lot! Pronunciation is my favorite topic. Although I don’t start teaching pronunciation right away because its priority isn’t so high. However, there are not a lot of Japanese teachers who can teach this topic since it is too complicated, and I’ve been helping hundreds of students to improve their pronunciation.
