Takeshi Spada
Entertaining Japanese! I've been professionally teaching Japanese for about three years. My specialties are casual Japanese and teaching phrases that only native speakers use! I help my students avoid directly translating things, as this often results in creating unnatural expressions (E.g When we hang out and friends look a bit bored, we don't say "Are you bored? We say "Do you wanna do something different? (何か違うことする?)in Japanese). Also, I break down common formal Japanese expressions and explain how you can make casual phrases with them. So that you can see the difference and pick proper expressions when you speak or write!

Relaxed, soft-spoken, detailed. 平易近人,轻松,详细 2023日本語教育能力検定試験合格 As a community teacher, I think I’m best suited for your native Japanese conversation practice partner. With this said, I’m now learning the type of Japanese grammar useful for foreign students so that I can answer your basic grammar questions. I believe in the importance of output and repeated practice. So, in my class, I encourage you to relax and speak much, while to master the stuff you’ve learned by repetition and frequent review. 刚开始当老师,我应该适合当你的日语会话练习伙伴。对于日语语法针对外国学习者的,我在天天学习。已经学过的,我会随机分享给你的 我相信练习和复习很重要。所以在我的课程中,我会一边鼓励你轻松随便多多讲,同时也会鼓励你重复练习,又复习学过的。这样知识会根深蒂固吧 あたらしいせんせいのわたしは、かいわのれんしゅうの あいてに よいとおもいます。がいこくじんむけの ぶんぽうも まいにち べんきょうしています たくさん はなすことが たいせつです。リラックスし わたしとたのしく たくさん はなしましょう。

しぜんな日本語がはなせるようになりたい人!🙌 I have completed the studies for the 420 hour Advanced Skills of Teaching Japanese Language Course. My lesson is NOT typical Japanese lesson that practice Japanese which native Japanese wouldn't say! With or without a textbook, it doesn't matter. Even if we use a text book, I don't follow too much. We can have a conversation whilst practicing "Natural Japanese"! Playing games, describing some situations or such... I'll adapt the lesson to the student! Let me know if you have any request! プロの日本語教師になるための420時間のコースを受けました。日本人がよく使う日本語、”しぜんな日本語”を会話をしながら、練習します。教科書はあっても、なくても、大丈夫です。教科書を使ったとしても、教科書に沿って教えるだけでなく、自然な日本語を練習しながら、会話をします。ゲームをしたり、写真の説明をしたり…生徒さんに合わせたレッスンをします。何か希望があれば、言ってくださいね。

I have experience teaching kids, so I’m aware of the struggles that language learners can experience. It doesn’t matter what level of Japanese you have, as I can also help you in English if you prefer, even though I'm not quite fluent in English yet though. I thoroughly enjoy teaching, so let's have fun learning together! 私は子どもの英語の先生の経験があるので、生徒さんが何で苦労しているのか分かります。日本語のレベルは関係ありませんので、ご希望があれば英語を使いながら日本語を教えることも可能です。英語がそんなに上手ではないですが、教えることが好きなので一緒に楽しみながら学びましょう!

TAKA (GIAPPOLIA TV)
I have had the opportunity to talk with people from many different countries, and each time I have taught them a little about Japanese culture and the language, I have a desire to explain my country to people from more countries. The most important thing when I learned a foreign language was to increase the opportunities to use that language. No matter how much you study, if you don't use it often, you'll spend a lot of time learning it. For the above reasons, I decided that it is important to focus on conversation-centered free-talk in my lessons, first of all, to create many opportunities for you to talk about topics you like, so that you can get used to speaking.

Learning Japanese should not be that overwhelming, Let's start it step by step with me! 経験は、対面とオンラインを合わせて5年程度あります。 ゆっくり標準語を話すので、聞き取りやすいと思います。 日本語教育能力検定試験の受験を考えています。 来年の10月以降は、資格のある講師になると思います。 I have 5years of experience as a Japanese tutor including both online and face to face classes. I have Tokyo accent and speak it slowly which should be easier to listen to even for begginers. I am very good at making personarised learning plans. I doubt that you would feel too overwhelmed in lessons. I am planning to take a certain test which is called JEES. so I will get a certification at certain point.

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.

I am certified to teach Japanese and currently teach at a language school in Taiwan and for private students. I teach general Japanese, business Japanese as well as exam preparation for JLPT, to students from various backgrounds. Some of my students started to learn with me from Hiragana, the most basic letters in this language, and some others are advanced learners who are required to use Japanese for their jobs. I am so happy for what my students and I are doing together to improve their skills, and having good time in each class.
