Hello everyone! My name is Hitomi, and I’m a Japanese teacher. ('ω')
I have been teaching Japanese online for over 5 years, and I have taught more than 3,500 lessons.
My goal is to create relaxed lessons where you can have fun speaking Japanese and find yourself improving naturally.
★ My lessons are a good fit for people who... ★
・Are studying Japanese for the first time
・Feel nervous about speaking Japanese
・Have trouble finding the right words quickly
・Want to learn natural Japanese for traveling in Japan or everyday conversations
・Are interested in Japanese culture, trends, and food
・Want to speak some Japanese today — same-day bookings are welcome♪
*My experience
Before becoming a Japanese teacher, I worked in several different fields.
・Part-time work at a restaurant
・Apparel and lifestyle goods sales
・Product planning, sales, and production management at a trading company for 3 years
→ I worked with people in China, went on business trips overseas, and communicated with customers in business settings.
・Studied abroad in Taiwan
→ I lived in Taiwan for 4 years!
・Over 5 years of experience as an online Japanese teacher
Because of these experiences, I can talk with students about Japanese used in real-life situations, such as restaurants, work, and travel, as well as everyday conversation.
*Teaching experience
・Free talk
・Pronunciation and conversation practice
・Japanese for travel
・Beginner and intermediate grammar
・Speech scripts and resume/CV proofreading
・Business etiquette and business Japanese
I have experience teaching a wide range of learners, from beginners to advanced students. ('ω')
*Hobbies & things I like
・Cooking and enjoying delicious food
・Exploring cafés and traveling (both in Japan and abroad)
・Studying foreign languages
・Linguistics and psychology
・Music (piano and bass)
・Round things and chubby characters
・I’ve been working on strength training recently, too!
*About my lessons
After each lesson, I’ll share a link to your own “Japanese notebook”(via Google Docs)
I believe that reviewing is just as important when learning Japanese as having fun.
Even just 5 minutes is enough. Please take a quick look at what we talked about and any new vocab after the lessons.
I’ll handle the note-taking during the lesson, so you can focus on speaking. (^^)
I’ll also make sure that taking notes doesn’t interrupt the flow of our conversation!
The notes will be updated right after the lesson.
〈What my lessons look like〉
During the lesson, I share my screen and take notes like this.
You can check what we talked about and more natural expressions on the screen as we go.
It’s also useful for reviewing later!
〈No need to worry about your surroundings. Please feel free to take my lessons even if:〉
・You have young children at home
・You have a dog or cat at home
Being able to speak foreign languages has given me many moments where I felt, “My world has become bigger!”
If you’re interested in Japan, why not enjoy learning Japanese together?
I look forward to meeting you in a lesson!
