Everything has a First time: Writing about my lesson

Hello everyone, I'm Shiori, a Japanese teacher!　
みなさんこんにちは、シオリです！

Everything has a first time, right?
This time, I'd like to look back on the very first lesson I ever taught.
By the way, this is also my first column!
Before I dive into my lesson story, let me briefly introduce myself.

I was born and raised in Japan. I studied Japanese and English education at university.
I've always been fascinated by languages, and I started learning English first.
Now, I have over 15 years of experience studying it.
6 years ago, I began learning Korean because I thought it would be useful to communicate with neighboring country.
I started teaching Japanese about 2 years ago, and during these 2 years, I've met many wonderful Japanese learners.

The first lesson can be so nerve-wracking, isnt't it?
As a language learner myself, I completely understand the excitement and nervousness of speaking with native speaker for the first time.

Now, let me tell you about my very first lesson as a teacher.
At that time, I had no idea what I do, but I thought, "Just give it a try!"
When my first lesson was booked, I was filled with both excitment and nerves.
However, once the lesson started, I realized I couldn't explain things clearly and couldn't manage the lesson smoothly.
I ran into several challenges.

My first lesson ended in a bit of mess, and I felt sorry for my student.
When I apologized, my student said,
"There's a first time for everything, so don't worry about it"

Those words game me back confidence I almost lost, and since then, I've been working hard every day to make my lesson even better.

So, let's keep improving step by step everyone!
がんばりましょう〜！
