Hi, I’m Etsuko! I’m a native Japanese speaker. I was born and raised in Fukui Prefecture. There is a dinosaur museum nearby. (わたしは、えつこです。恐竜博物館で有名な福井県にすんでいます。)
I have two granddaughters. They are very talkative. Watching them learn to speak, I became more interested in the Japanese language. I learned many things that I did not know even though I am Japanese. The Japanese language is very interesting.(孫たちが話せるようになるのを見ていて、日本語がとても興味深いと思うようになりました。)

Ik als leerkracht
I was an elementary school teacher for 35 years. I have a lot of experience teaching hiragana, katakana, kanji, and reading Japanese. Depending on your level of Japanese, I can use easy Japanese or speak politely. Furthermore, I have passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test.
I have experience teaching English to third graders and above. In addition to teaching, I am also continuing to learn English. I take online lessons on "italki" and join a local English chatting club.
I know how much fun it is to learn a language. Let me assist you to learn Japanese. Let's have fun learning Japanese. (35年間、小学校の先生でした。子どもたちに、ひらがなや漢字や読み取りなどを教えた経験がたくさんあります。いっしょに楽しく学習しましょう。)
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I teach using “Irodori” in the beginner’s class. You don't need to buy the textbook because you can download it from the website. I also show the text in PowerPoint or PDFs, so you don't need to download it to learn. I also love Genki's textbooks. I teach the intermediate level using “Marugoto”. You will need to purchase the textbook. I also have other textbooks. If you want to use one, I can deal with it. My role-playing and making sentences from pictures lessons are also very popular.
I can also help you with your JLPT preparation. I will teach you according to the speed and content you want to learn. Let's have fun learning Japanese. I’m looking forward to seeing you in my class.

While the entire lesson was in Japanese, Etsuko sensei would re-enact certain scenarios to help me better understand the grammar used in daily life. Always an engaging and fun class with Etsuko sensei!

It's really fun being able to express myself now more in Japanese. Thank you so much! I really enjoy our conversations in Japanese. I'm excited to see how far our conversations will go in a year from now!!

Always a pleasure with Etsuko-san. We mostly chat since it's been a while since last year. We talked about family, the winter holidays and new year, and shared study materials (I learned about a manga-style textbook). Always friendly and easy to talk with, and will help correct mistakes occasionally. Thank you!

Like always a really fun class! You have such a cute little grandchild! It felt good being able to understand her. Excited to keep on learning short form even though I'm getting a little confused when to use it.

It has been a year now and I'm really thankful for how much I have learned from you. I went from knowing nothing, to being able to make long sentences. I always look forward to your classes. ありがとう!Here is to multiple more years!
