A.yu.mi Tutor Profile

Hello everyone! I’m Ayumi, a Japanese language tutor.

I have over 3,000 hours of combined teaching experience at language schools and in online lessons.

I’ve specialized particularly in beginner-level Japanese instructions.

Additionally, I have taught a wide range of levels from Japanese for children to business Japanese.

Let’s enjoy learning Japanese together!



★Recommended for the following learners★

・Learners who don’t get a lot of opportunities to output what they’ve learned

・Learners who want to maintain their Japanese skills

・Learners who want to improve their speaking skills beyond just their exams

・Learners who want to use real-life Japanese and natural expressions used by native speakers



★Lesson Style★

・I teach Japanese “in Japanese.”

Even absolute beginners are welcome to join me for a lesson. I’ll use lots of illustrations and example sentences tailored to you, with no complicated explanations. Learning “in Japanese” helps improve your listening and conversational skills.



・Student-centered lessons.

Rather than the tutor doing most of the talking, I’ll create plenty of opportunities for my students to speak.

I adapt lessons to each student’s level and pace, so you can learn comfortably.


・I teach using my original learning materials.

Even learners who do not own textbooks are welcome in my lessons. I create customized materials (slides/documents) tailored to each student’s needs.

Students who have textbooks can also use them for lessons. In that case, please consult with me in advance.


【Lesson Introduction】

★ For learners who are interested in learning grammar or practice conversation

・ Beginner-level grammar review lessons using “Minna no Nihongo”

・ Lessons for JLPT preparation (N4 to N2 level)

・ Practical business Japanese

And so on.


★ For learners who would like to improve their conversational skills

・ Advanced-level conversation lessons using news videos

・ Free-talking sessions (15 or 25 minutes) - Learners of all levels are welcome!

And so on.



★ For learners who would like to expand their vocabulary and/or study kanji

・ Learning kanji through news articles

・ Onomatopoeia

And so on.


★ For learners who want to learn Japanese for daily life and/or traveling in Japan

・ Useful for traveling! Hotel/ryokan Japanese

・ Learning about Japanese life and rules

And so on.



If you can’t find a lesson that fits your need, I can also create custom-made lessons.

I’ll combine several lessons to create a personalized program that fits each individual learner.

Please don’t hesitate to book a trial lesson with me.

I look forward to meeting every one of you in my lessons.




【Self Introduction】

I was born in Iwate Prefecture, Japan. I’ve also lived in Okinawa and Fukushima prefectures.

Before becoming a Japanese language teacher, I worked at business hotels and at cooperations (as an office worker).

This is why I can also teach practical Japanese for traveling and business.



My hobbies are going to concerts of my favourite artists and watching their live performance videos!

Some concerts I have been to include:

Arashi, Ikimonogakari, Alexandros, Twice, and so on.

 

What are things that you enjoy? Please tell me about them in our lessons!
