With 7000+ hours of experience in teaching, I've helped great learners find their passion and voice If you’re looking for a professional teacher who is good at teaching Japanese from zero or who can teach you how Japanese people speak, you’re in luck! I will help you learn how to speak fluently in the most effective way. My experience of living in other countries more than 10 yearstaught me how we should learn and teach languages. Would you like a teacher who actually knows how to learn languages — and is doing so successfully? If so, you’re the kind of student I love working with. I learn a new language every year so I’m always testing and refining new strategies ＆ tactics to benefit my students. In our lessons we will review a lot so that you can imporve something in every lesson. Also, 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 thousands of students to improve their pronunciation. *A trial lesson! – I recommend you do a trial lesson as it'll help me to get to know you and assess your fluency level. This will allow me to tailor our sessions according to your specific interests and goals. *Professional Lesson: Why we learn the language… yes! it is for having conversation! We can learn some grammar rules and vocabulary then practice conversation! Don't hesitate to contact me!

My first job is teaching Japanese for the beginner’s course in Tokyo, and then in Vietnam for 2 and a half years. Contents are business Japanese, how to pass the JLPT, pronunciation, and so on. The class of pronunciation was well-received for staff who work at Japanese hotels in Vietnam. I would like to be a teacher who continues to grow together with everyone, without being what I am doing now. 2017年、日本語教育能力検定試験に合格して日本語教師になりました。はじめは東京の日本語学校で初級のクラスを教えました。 その後、ベトナムで2年半、いろいろな人にいろいろな日本語を教えました。へビジネス日本語、JLPTの試験対策、発音・・。特に発音のレッスンは、日系のホテルで働く人たちから高い評価をいただきました。 今の自分に満足せずに、成長し続ける教師でありたいと思っています。

I was raised and educated in Japan but now live in Vietnam. I regularly use Vietnamese with my colleague, subordinates and counterparts and sometimes communicate with customers around the world in English. Each language is unique in its own way, but don't think too hard about it, just start a conversation by using the words you know and saying them out loud.
