Let's have conversations about topics you're interested in to improve your Japanese! Through my past experiences I've met a lot of lovely people from all over the world and the one thing that stuck out to me the most was the opinion about how difficult Japanese is to learn as a second language. I've decided to take to italki so I may reach more potential friends around the world and converse in this beautiful language! I'm so excited to use the new methods of teaching I learnt in practice in our learning together! I'm so looking forward to meeting you all and being your tomodachi 👫

こんにちは!A friendly tutor who enjoys talking with people from different countries :) Through my experience on italki, I’ve gained a good understanding of the common mistakes Japanese learners often make and the difficulties they face. As a language learner myself (I study German), I also understand how challenging it can be to learn a foreign language. I’m a patient teacher, and I’m good at creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere in my lessons.

Learn Japanese for fun with a tutor who explains like a Japanese friend I've taught students from many countries and levels. I believe everyone learns differently, so I like to adjust my style and try different approaches until we find what works best for you. My aim is to keep lessons supportive, practical, and motivating.

I'm here for beginners :) I use textbook GENKI and irodori. I was a school teacher for several years so I've learned to teach live people and not just through the computer. I teach not only adults but children too! I have taught 7 year old kids who did not speak Japanese at all when we began. We started from Hiragana and worked up to words and sentences. I love teaching all levels, so of course beginners are welcome! I have textbooks allowing us to crossed between book based lessons and speaking lessons. But if you want to be fluent in Japanese, you should learn with textbook, and learn Japanese language! I'll teach you how to speak in a real conversational manner and not the formal helpful but not natural conversation method used by textbooks.

yokann
我在中国和日本都做过兼职中文老师。也在北京好未来教育科技有限公司参与过北京市初高中语文的教师培训。 我擅长激发学生们对中文的兴趣,丰富学生对中文的理解,帮助学生构建中文学习的知识框架。在以往的教学中我注重与学生的互动和提升学生的课堂积极性,我认为只有做好这两点才能让一节课有效率,有收获。 I’ve been a part-time Chinese teacher both in China and Japan. I’ve also taken the training course in TAL education group as a high school Chinese teacher. I am good at stimulating students’ interest in learning, helping them acquire a better understanding of Chinese. In the past teaching lessons, I put emphasis on interacting with students and enhancing their enthusiasm. I think these two points can make a lesson more essential and achievable.
