話し言葉検定1級を取得済み。アナウンサーレベルの日本語スピーキング力です。小さな出版社で編集者をしています。主にアートと物理学、脳科学の書籍を担当しています。 私は2014年から英語学習を始めました。それまでは全くの英語初心者だったので、外国語を学ぶ方の気持ちがよくわかります。 言語学習に興味を持ち、英語学校の広報として働き、いろいろな方の学習方法を見てきました。さまざまタイプの学校や訓練所などの視察をしたりもしました。 私がみてきたたたくさんの学習方法の中から、みなさんに最も効果的な方法をご提供します。 私の性格は明るく、細かいことは気にしません。だれでも新しいことを知らないのは当たり前です。今学んだばかりのことをすぐにやってみてと言われてもできないのが当たり前です。ひとそれぞれペースも違います。 自分らしく、安心してレッスンを受けてください。 全く厳しくありません。進むスピードはあなたに合わせます。 中級から上級レベルの方の場合は、文法の使い方、単語の使い方を少し細かくチェックします。 覚え違いをしていたり、誤った使い方をしている言葉は、レッスンの中で都度修正していきます。  日本語は同じ意味の言葉がたくさんあります。同じ意味でも少しずつ使い方が違うことがあります。 また、ビジネスの場では敬語の他にも使っていい表現と使ってはいけない表現の区別が必要です。普段使わない表現もたくさん出てきます。 話す相手とスムーズに会話ができるようになるために、ぜひレッスンで学んでください。

Friendly and patient professional teacher Hello! I obtained my certification as a Japanese teacher in 2009 and taught at a Japanese language school in Melbourne from 2010 to 2016. After returning to Japan in 2016, I started teaching on italki, where I've conducted over 6,800 lessons for more than 300 students. My lessons cover all levels, from beginner to advanced, and are tailored to meet students' needs, including JLPT preparation, travel phrases, and everyday conversation. I use plenty of illustrations and sometimes English to help beginners feel comfortable. I always strive to create a relaxed and enjoyable learning environment with a friendly approach. I look forward to meeting you in our lessons!

私は、いままでタンデムパートナーに日本語を教えていた経験があります。italkiでは、3年前から日本語を教えています。 日本の修士課程の学生だったころ、大学生の作文を添削していたこともあります。なので、文章を添削することもできます。 日本語や日本の文化について説明したりディスカッションすることが好きです。 Ich habe bis jetzt mehrere Tandempartner/innen gehabt und habe immer Spaß, über meine Muttersprache und Kultur zu erzählen. Außerdem habe ich schon mal als Tutorin an einer Uni in Japan gearbeitet und Hausarbeiten von Bachelorstudierenden korrigiert.

Taking a week off but I will be back to normal from the 29th! Feel free to message me :)) I love meeting new people and helping them in any way I can, and widen their abilities in languages. Our classes would be catered to your needs and interests to keep you always motivated and hungry for more. Apart from just teaching, I would love to get to know you as a person which in the end I think would make our classes more personal.

Even if you memorize words and learn grammar every day, when you try to speak, you may not be able to come up with words or speak well. Output is essential for improving your language skills.

Frequently asked questions about online Japanese classes

At italki, you can easily find the right Japanese teacher for you by using our search filters. You can filter teachers by their experience level, teaching style, availability, and even their location. We recommend taking a trial lesson with a few different teachers to see which one you feel most comfortable with and whose teaching style best matches your learning goals. During the trial lesson, you can ask the teacher about their teaching methods, experience, and availability. You can also check their profile for reviews from previous students to get an idea of their teaching effectiveness. Ultimately, finding the right Japanese tutor online is a personal decision, and it’s important to find someone you feel comfortable with and who can help you achieve your language learning goals.

Yes, the Japanese lessons offered by italki are suitable for beginners. In fact, many of the teachers specialize in teaching Japanese to beginners. They use a variety of teaching methods and materials to ensure that students with no prior knowledge of Japanese can learn effectively. For example, teachers may use textbooks, audio and video materials, and other resources to help students develop their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Additionally, some teachers may offer specialized courses that are designed specifically for beginners, such as introductory courses that focus on basic grammar and vocabulary. Regardless of your level of Japanese proficiency, italki offers a wide range of classes and teachers to help you achieve your language learning goals.

Yes, you can learn Japanese at your own pace with italki. Our online Japanese courses are designed to accommodate all levels of learners, including beginners, intermediate learners, and advanced learners. You can choose a Japanese teacher who is specialized in teaching Japanese to beginners if you are just starting out.

One of the biggest advantages of learning Japanese with italki is that you can set your own pace for learning. Unlike traditional language classes where you have to follow a fixed syllabus and pace, with italki, you can choose how many classes you want to take each week and how long you want to study. You can also choose to take a break from classes whenever you need to and come back to them when you are ready.

Additionally, with italki, you have the flexibility to choose the type of classes that suit your learning style and pace. You can choose one-on-one lessons or group classes, and you can choose to focus on specific areas of the language, such as speaking, listening, reading, or writing. This allows you to learn Japanese at your own pace and focus on the areas that are most important to you.

At italki, we understand that sometimes schedules can change, and we make it easy to reschedule or cancel your Japanese lessons. You can contact your teacher directly to reschedule a lesson if you need to. Please note that if you need to reschedule or cancel a lesson, you should do so at least 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for the lesson. If you cancel a lesson within 24 hours of the scheduled time, you will be charged for the lesson.

If you need to cancel a lesson for an emergency or unexpected event, please contact italki support as soon as possible to explain the situation. Our support team will work with you and your teacher to find a suitable solution.

It’s important to remember that building a good relationship with your Japanese teacher is key to success in your language learning journey, so open communication is encouraged.

At italki, there are multiple payment methods available for online Japanese lessons. You can pay using credit cards, PayPal, Alipay, or other methods depending on your location. To pay for a lesson, you need to purchase italki credits, which can then be used to pay for the lessons you take. The cost of each lesson depends on the teacher’s rate and the length of the lesson. Once you have enough credits, you can book a lesson with your chosen Japanese teacher and pay for it using your credits. After the lesson, your credits will be deducted based on the length of the lesson. You can also set up automatic payments so that you don’t need to manually purchase credits each time you book a lesson. It’s a simple and secure way to pay for online Japanese lessons on italki.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to learn Japanese from the comfort of your own home. Browse our selection of experienced Japanese tutors and enroll in your first lesson now!
