****** Do you want to learn Japanese? ********　 ******* I am here for you! ********* I love teaching Japanese. I have been teaching Japanese for over 10 years. I was born and raised in Japan. After my study in Japanese college where I earned a secondary teaching credential, I worked for international companies in Tokyo and later came to the US for study and worked for US companies to liaison between the countries, I was involved in numerous translations/interpretations. I understand nuance well to translate. I can help you learn Japanese to reach your goal. I teach absolute beginners to advanced levels including a native level JLPT 1. My sessions would be individually tailored based on your interests, necessary improvements, and goals. I am currently providing online lessons and limiting in-person lessons. During my lessons, you can use textbooks as well as other materials in a proactive learning style online or in-person (limited location). - School students: I have been tutoring school students for many years and connect with young people well. I am also familiar with the textbooks being used in high schools. We can review school assignments, conversational practice, or any other work you might have. - For travelers and your interest-based lessons, I will select appropriate materials to meet your needs. You can choose either Romaji or Kana-based lessons. - For business needs, my work experience would help you not only learn the language but also strengthen your communication skills in understanding its cultural aspects, nuance, and expressions. - For Japanese job seekers and Japanese college applications, I have experience in helping interview simulation and proofreading resumes and essays. - For JLPT prep, I specialize in JLPT prep all n5-n1 levels. My students have successfully passed the levels of N5 - N1. If you are interested in JLPT, please send me a message as it differs from the regular Japanese lessons. Cancelation policy: You must notify me before your session starts if you cannot attend a scheduled session in order to avoid a full cancellation charge. No-show would result in a cancellation charge. Besides tutoring Japanese, I enjoy painting Japanese calligraphy and making Ikebana flower arrangements. For group lessons (2 people or more), an extra $ 1/2 rate is charged to each lesson. Please mention that if you are in a group. My schedule on the site might not be updated as it always changes.
