YAMADA
日本語は読めるけど、話すのが苦手な方、日本の小説を日本語で読んでみたい方、面接やプレゼンの練習をしたい方、敬語やビジネス会話を覚えたい方、文章を書く練習をしたい方、お待ちしています。 私はビジネスをリタイヤした後、何をしようかと考えていたとき、まず思い浮かんだことは、外国語を学んで海外の人たちと交流をするということでした。しかし、逆に、私が日本語を教えることによって、多くの外国の方が日本語を理解し、日本が好きになってくれることのほうが、私のためにも、日本語を学ぶ皆さんのためにも有意義だと考えて、日本語教師になりました。 When I was thinking about what I would do after retiring from business, the first thing that came to mind was to learn a foreign language and interact with people from other countries. However, I thought that it would be more meaningful for me and for people learning Japanese if I could help many foreigners understand the Japanese language and come to love Japan by teaching it to them.

Learn practical and formal Japanese with a nationally certified teacher. Beginners are very welcome. ⭐️I have been teaching Japanese since 2020 and have supported students with different goals and levels. ⭐️Before becoming a Japanese teacher, I worked for more than 20 years in the accounting department of a Japanese company. Through this experience, I became familiar with professional communication, including telephone conversations, honorific language, and formal expressions used in the workplace. ⭐️I also taught Japanese students at a cram school for over 5 years, where I developed clear and structured ways to explain language and concepts. ⭐️Because I am also studying English and Chinese, I understand the challenges of learning a new language.
