🟦♉️ Speak with Ease, Grammar Made Breezy 🟦 (Normal Lesson)

【Please note that this lesson will be currently only for 25-min】
In this lesson, I will provide audio to you in advance as a homework assignment, and explain how to practice. You will do shadowing practice every day for a week before the lesson. In the lesson, I will correct the areas in your pronunciation that still need to be improved.

I recommend that you think of this class as a 25-min intense focus session because it requires 100% focus. I will help you gradually cultivate a sense of the Japanese pitch-accent system. It is similar to how you might slowly get a sense of the kanji stroke order system, as they both require time as you gradually acquire knowledge. Once you acquire a sense of the system, you will eventually be able to figure out what the pitch is naturally without my guidance.

【For Beginners】
If you are a beginner-level learner, this is a great chance for you to avoid memorizing the wrong pitch accent. When your brain gets used to the wrong pitch, it becomes extremely difficult to correct it. Therefore, rather than correcting ingrained mistakes, it will be much easier if you just memorize the correct pitch from the beginning.

I've experienced living in Japan, the U.S., and Austria and have been struggling to manage life. Today, the social gap between countries seems to need more time to get closer. Therefore, I want to take action. It would be great if my students would gain Japanese language proficiency and make their careers and lives fruitful and meaningful. I also hope to encourage people to fight against social inequality by taking action.

Mastering the て Form: Your Key to Polite Requests

In this first lesson, we’ll dive into the essential て form, a fundamental building block for everyday Japanese. You'll learn how to conjugate verbs into the て form and use it to make polite requests, ask for permissions, and state prohibitions. Through guided exercises and practical speaking activities, you’ll build a strong foundation for using this versatile grammar point.

We’ll also focus on pronunciation, ensuring you avoid common mistakes from the beginning. By the end of the lesson, you’ll confidently use the て form in simple conversational scenarios. Homework will reinforce what you’ve learned, and you'll receive feedback to support your progress.

Expressing Actions with the ている Form

This class focuses on the ている form, which is used to express ongoing actions (present continuous) and completed states (present perfect). You'll practice forming and applying this structure in common scenarios, such as describing what you are doing right now or stating habitual actions.

We’ll use interactive role-play and speaking exercises to help you internalize this grammar point. Special attention will be given to nuances and context, so you’ll understand when and how to use ている naturally. Self-study materials and optional homework will be provided to deepen your understanding at home.

Learning Short Forms for Casual Conversations

In this lesson, you’ll unlock the casual side of Japanese by mastering short forms. These are essential for informal speech, such as talking with friends, expressing opinions, or casually narrating events.

You’ll learn how to conjugate verbs, adjectives, and nouns into their short forms and practice using them in context. We’ll compare short forms with their polite equivalents, so you’ll understand when to switch between formal and informal speech. Fun speaking activities and dialogues will give you the confidence to use short forms effectively.

Putting It All Together: Intensive Informal Speech Practice Description:

In the final class, we’ll focus on putting everything you’ve learned into practice through intensive speaking exercises. This session emphasizes informal speech, using the て form, ている form, and short forms in natural conversations.

You’ll practice building longer sentences and responding in real-time, simulating everyday conversational scenarios. Role-plays, pair work, and personalized feedback will help you refine your speaking skills and boost your confidence.

By the end of this lesson, you’ll have the tools and self-assurance to use informal Japanese effectively in conversations. Let’s wrap up the course with fun and fluency!
