Me as a Teacher

I have experience teaching at a private school, and I’ve been teaching the Japanese language & culture to foreigners for more than 7 years.
In 2021, I earned a TESOL certification, and in 2022 I earned the certificate "Teaching Japanese as a foreign language".
Although, I still continue to study Japanese language education.
I believe that it’s most important to HAVE FUN to keep your motivation of learning.

Hello, my name is Yurika. 

I can offer Japanese lessons for beginner, intermediate, advanced and business levels. Japanese is a tricky language to learn, and I believe that practicing conversations and understanding the nuances are the keys to mastering Japanese. My lessons will focus on practicing daily conversations that will build your confidence in speaking and listening. I hope to create a cheerful and fun learning experience together! 

• Depending on your goals and needs, writing and reading practice can also be taught/learned
• First tryout lesson will be a casual atmosphere to communicate the desired goals and outcomes
• Questions, answers, or explanations is offered in English (or German)

My role is to be your mentor who support your goal. I believe in you and help you acquiring Japanese. Your course will be designed on your request based on your pace, interests, learning style and learning history.

In my classes, I try to give more time to speaking practice. Because learners cannot do this all alone. You can do writing practice at home. You can take time to look for the words and structure them carefully and try out something new. Watching short videos and listening to music can also be given as an assignment. I will help you with many picture slides. Once you get comfortable creating sentences with the new expressions and vocabulary, I will offer activities which stimulate conversations.

I do not insist on handwriting. I leave it to the learners. Handwriting helps some learners to memorize. Other learners are visual and rather work with flash cards. Nowadays, there is little necessity for handwriting. Most written communication is typed.

Beginners will have to decide on their textbook. I usually prefer the one which the learner has already been using. If the learner wants to have a new book or they have none, I can recommend one. The learner uses the textbook for doing homework, reviewing, or pre-study. I will use slides in the lessons for oral practice. For those who want conversation lessons, the materials can vary depending on the learner’s wishes.

Teaching is my joy. I appreciate each meeting that brings me the chance to learn through my teaching. Seeing the progress of my students makes me happy.

Hello everyone.

Hello! I'm Aya. Nice to meet you! I'm a Japanese tutor who is currently living in Australia.

I have completed a Japanese teacher training course.

I am Maya. I started teaching because I’ve always loved language exchanges for my own language study.

I’ve been studying Italian and English for so many years that I understand very well the difficulties for leaners. I experimented many methods of learning on my own, so it would be helpful in order to give you efficient advices.

 

I have 7 years of experience in teaching and also currently I’m teaching in a language school for class and individual lessons.
So I think have a valuable experience. 

 

In addition, I was born in Tokyo, Japan. So, if you study with me, you would be learning Japanese from a Native-Japanese speaker with correct accent!

I graduated from the Information technology major and I’m also freelance front-end web developer.
I’ll help you with modern online tools and I’ll you organize you nice OnDemand online lessons.

 

How do you do!   My name is Madoka.  I am from Tokyo.  I was born and grew up there, but I have been living in the United States for quite a long time by now.  

During those years, I studied, worked, got married and raised two children.  Meantime, I taught beginning Japanese classes at the college level for two years, taught toddlers and pre-school children at my immersion-style Japanese family child care for more than 10 years; then, have been teaching elementary through high-school students at a Japanese school for 4 years (including 2 years of on-line class).  Certainly, I raised my own children in Japanese.   And recently I took the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test to get officially certified as a Japanese teacher. 

For me, languages are for communication.  I love to learn different languages myself and love to teach my native language, Japanese, to other people to communicate with different people. I know Spanish enough to communicate.  I am learning Korean along with Tae Kwon Do practice.  I know both hardship and joy of learning languages.  

Students from all ages and all levels are welcome.  I communicate with students to find their level, interests and goal to accommodate the best lesson style for each of them.   I usually use visual materials, quizzes and games.  I may use textbook when needed but often customize materials on my own according to my student's need.  My lesson is always interactive.  I would expect you to join me and be an active part in our lesson! 

Let me hear from you. If you are motivated enough to come here to read this and watch my video, why don't you get in touch with me to tell me about you.    Let's meet in the trial session and talk more.  We'll have fun and I will do my best to achieve your goal.  

I’m a qualified, professional Japanese tutor with over ten years’ teaching experience. I’ve taught university and school classes, conversational classes and also one to ones, in person and online.

Whether you want to learn simple conversational Japanese, perhaps for a holiday or merely for fun; or whether you would like to study the language at a higher level, focusing on grammar, reading and writing, I can help you.

Hi I'm Aki, an experienced Japanese teacher. 

I've been tutoring students in the United Kingdom for almost a decade. I taught a variety of students: e.g. young children (primary school), teenagers (GCSE /A-level), university students, and adults up to over 60 years old. Most of them are beginners or intermediate-level learners. 

Let me describe my teaching style with 3 key points: 

1) TEACHING MATERIALS: I mainly use my original teaching materials which are full of visual-focused explanations and custom illustrations. I believe every lesson should be customised to some extend, because of the many different types of students (visual learners, auditory learners, and kinesthetic learners) and their unique objectives. I use my own materials in a different way depending on the students, and use other materials such as textbooks (e.g. exam book) and websites (e.g. news, culture) when required. 

2) SPEAKING TIME: I pay attention to the balance of my speaking time and students' speaking time, because it's very important for the students to apply what they have learned to real situations. In this way, I try to make my lesson more interactive than just straight forward tutoring. I make situations where they can talk without hesitation. For example, I choose topics that are interesting and/or familiar to them. 

3) FOLLOW-UP: I give them feedback and/or assignments after lessons so that they can review the lessons properly and ask questions if they have any. Also I give advice when a student gets stuck on learning a particular aspect of Japanese, because I had similar experiences when learning English. 

Thus, I am committed to providing professional but fun Japanese language lessons in my own way! 

*I currently teach private students online in the United Kingdom. I have previously worked as a Japanese teacher assistant in Sand Lake Elementary School in Alaska, USA. I successfully completed the CELTA course and have earned several teaching certificates.

Hello,

My name is Yuki. I have a MA in language teaching and I have been engaged in education for about 7 years . I myself learned a few foreign languages and understand it takes patience. 

Each learner has a different goal and a personal preference. First, I would like to know what you have already learned and your goal. You can also tell me what you would like to focus on and what you think is difficult. Then, I can design lessons for you.

For example:-

1, You already are an intermediate-level student in a group language course but want to have more conversational practices.

• Set a situation or a topic (real life settings, social topics, etc)
• You communicate using your existing knowledge
• I present phrases and vocabulary for effective communication
• Practice

2, You are a beginner and want to build up all sorts of skills

• Start with basic greetings and phrases
• Familiarize you with Japanese sound structure and pronunciation, and also its writing system
• Build up grammar
• Listen to Japanese language in real life (because listening to controlled conversations can be done by using CDs and scripts.)

       (I often use "Japanese for Busy People", which is a very useful book in a lot of different aspects.)

These are just examples, and of course, feel free to book a trial lesson to see if I am a right tutor for you.

Yuki
