🚨日本語SOS？📞大丈夫、はる先生がいます😊✨Japanese SOS? No worries — Haru-sensei is on your side! 🌸 ２００２年から韓国の語学学校、短大、某有名企業などで初級から上級までの日本語会話や試験対策などを教えてきました。生徒さんのタイプもいろいろです。高校生、大学生、会社員、弁護士、そして、有名ガールズグループの歌手、俳優など、いろいろな職業の人たちがいます。 韓国のケーブルテレビに日本語の講師として出演して、共著で日本語試験対策の本を出版したこともあります。 Since 2002, I have taught Japanese conversation and exam preparations from beginners to advanced levels at language schools, junior colleges, and well-known companies in Korea.There are many different types of students.There are high school students, college students, office workers, lawyers,singers and actors from famous girl groups, and so on. I have appeared on cable TV in Korea before as a Japanese language instructor and published a book co-authored to prepare for the Japanese language examination .

I love my language and teaching it, and I hope to help my students find the joy of learning and speaking a new language. What I like is music, underground culture, onsen, education, psychology and meditation and my dog. I enjoy also Japanese Hip hop. The lyrics are wonderful combinations of well-thought Japanese and I like their word play. I also like to travel and have been to the U.S., Uganda, Ethiopia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, India, Vietnam, Indonesia, Hong Kong. I had lived in Thailand for 4 years and I like spicy food.

JLPT N1/N2 Reading Strategy｜Structured Exam Preparation My teaching style is analytical, structured, and goal-oriented. Students say I explain grammar clearly, but what makes my lessons different is the strategy training for JLPT reading. We don’t just read. We break down the structure of the text. We learn how exam questions are created. We practice solving efficiently. Advanced Japanese is abstract and layered. I teach you how to navigate that complexity. Mistakes are welcome — they are clues to improve your score.

I have experience teaching Japanese at several language schools in Istanbul as well as teaching students privately. I have taught beginner students as well as advanced students who were interested in learning conversation.

Nationally registered Japanese language teacher who can provide you customized lessons 大学（だいがく）と大学院（だいがくいん）で日本語教育（にほんごきょういく）について勉強（べんきょう）しました。日本語教員（にほんごきょういん）の資格（しかく）もあります。日本（にほん）と中国（ちゅうごく）の大学（だいがく）、日本語学校（にほんごがっこう）などでいろいろな人（ひと）に教えた（おしえた）ことがあります。3年間（ねんかん）、日本語（にほんご）の試験（しけん）をつくる仕事（しごと）をしていましたので、JLPTなど日本語（にほんご）の試験（しけん）のことをよく知(し）っています。 I graduated from university and graduate school, majoring in Japanese language education, and obtained a master's degree. Of course, I am a professional teacher. I have extensive experience teaching learners at a college in Japan and China, and Japanese language school in Japan.

Not textbook Japanese - the Japanese you actually use Hi, I'm Yui! 👋 I'm learning English and Chinese myself, so I know both the excitement and the frustration of language learning. I have a 4-year university degree in Japanese language education, 3 years of teaching at a Japanese language school (since 2016), and 6 years of online teaching. Two things happen in every lesson, at every level. Patterns, not lists 📝 One pattern covers many sentences, so you are not memorizing. For beginners, I break verbs into 6 forms and 3 groups, with practice at every step. For intermediate and advanced learners, it is keigo, 〜んです, and the shapes that make you sound natural. Your own phrases 💬 What I hear most often is "I studied it, but I can't use it." So we collect the phrases you need - from your work, your trip, your interview - and I keep them in a spreadsheet that is yours. It grows every lesson. Then we use them in roleplay: a phone call, a hotel, meeting your neighbours, a job interview. Every 5 lessons I send you a one-page review of what you have built. My students right now are preparing for job interviews, studying for the JLPT, working in Japan, and starting from zero. The approach is the same - only the content changes. I'm a big anime fan 🎬 - Frieren, Blue Lock, Haikyu!!, Apothecary Diaries, Demon Slayer, Chiikawa - often watched in English or Chinese too. Lessons often turn into chats about what you are watching 😊 Let's make steady progress, and have fun doing it! ✨
