Why don't you have a free conversation in Japanese without being bound by grammar and pronunciation?
The theme of the conversation can be decided by the learners or I can think of it.
I think it's a good idea to decide on a theme in advance so that the lessons will be conducted smoothly before you start the lessons.
You are the protagonist. And I'm a listener.
Let's try little by little so that we can think and express Japanese in Japanese. This is the secret to improving your Japanese conversation.
Extra information
I have over 100 topics or more for students to talk. If you do not have any idea, please don't worry! ^ ^
Before class, please prepare your notebook and a pencil.

About Me
Konnichiwa from Japan.

I can confidently teach from children to adults.
The key to improving your Japanese is to make an effort to think of Japanese in Japanese.

I have worked Japanese companies, a kindergarten teacher, cram school and a Japanese language school in Tokyo.
Especially, I worked at a cram school for 12 years, teaching Japanese children between the ages of 2 and 12 a subject called "Kokugo." It is our national language.

I am a Japanese living in Japan. I love teaching the Japanese language. I am serious about teaching and would like to meet new learners.

I am experienced in teaching conversational Japanese, general Japanese, reading Japanese newspaper and JLPT exam preparation. I have a good understanding of second language acquisition, teaching methodologies.


As you may know, the language is beautiful. Let's have fun together!
​My hobbies are Japanese cooking it is called ''Washoku'', traveling, going to hot springs and walking with my two cute little doggies. I am an eager teacher and will do my best for learners.

My goal is to make people confident and happy to speak. Everyone is different and prefers different types of lessons, I have no ​problem using classroom books or just working to improve. I have taught a number of countries students so I am aware of the difficulties that can arise. Language should be interesting and fun to use. I want to make the class enjoyable.​ I'm ready to help you with a fresh mind, a ​positive attitude and a smile. Thank you.

Let's work together to make you sound more like a native Japanese speaker.
Thank you so much.

I look forward to seeing you soon.

This group lesson is designed for beginners to lower-intermediate learners who can read hiragana.

Textbook used in class is Minna no nihongo /BiginnerI

Since it was first published in 1998, "Minna no Nihongo" has been a long-selling and classic textbook for both teachers and learners of Japanese alike. Now the series has been reborn in this second edition, with the vocabulary and conversational settings being revised (words that have gone out of usage have been replaced with new expressions frequently in use, and conversational settings have also been updated) and exercises included with the book. Illustrations for use in reviewing have also been increased. While this book is not meant as a study aid for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, upon completing the book, the student is roughly at the N5 level of the test.

- Discovery of culture and language (great beginners and false beginners)
- Improvement to prepare JLPT 1-5 exams
- Professional needs

We can work writing and speaking, with a method (Japan Foundation) or any other desired medium.
