Japanese language free conversation Class for all of everyone.

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.

Sincerely,

Ms. Noriko is a very nice teacher. I have only had four lessons up till now but they helped me tremendously with understanding some harder Japanese grammar point that I always struggled with. She is very understanding and will try her hardest to answer all your questions. ~ Em
Noriko is a great teacher! She's really nice and tries her best to accommodate you with the lessons and with your learning goals. Plus, it's great to learn from someone that currently lives in Japan. It makes the experience more real. Domo arigato for being my teacher ^^
First class with Noriko San went well and smooth. Noriko San is very responsible and patient. Cool!
I want to use "Minna no Nihongo" as a textbook. I will take good care of each lesson and provide sufficient support to ensure that you can acquire it. First of all, it is important to become familiar with Japanese. I want to give lessons that match your learning pace.
If you are worried about Japanese particles and grammar, please join this class. There will be two textbooks used in this class, but we recommend that those who have learned the basics of Japanese participate. The basics of Japanese are, for example, "Minna no Nihongo I / II" and "Genki na nihongo I / II".
日本からこんにちは! I am a Japanese native speaker and I live in Japan. I am experienced in teaching Conversational Japanese, General Japanese, JLPT ( Japanese Language Proficiency Test)preparation. I have been welcoming learners from a variety of levels, age groups, and professions with their individual study goals. If you want to use your own textbooks for your lessons, please tell me. I have good free internet materials also.

Japanese for beginners: A springboard for your language journey
Japanese is an extremely tough language to learn, with it's 3 writing systems and tough grammar rules anyone would find it tough starting out! That's why I've decided to offer a class to help teach you the basics including katakana, hiragana and basic grammar and vocabulary to get you started on your Japanese journey! For context, I've lived in Japan for a year, teaching English as a foreign language to a school and am currently in university studying Japanese and TESOL! During my time in Japan I had to learn the language from scratch in the very country it was spoken in, giving me such a unique and admittedly stressful learning experience. I hope my lessons will help you out and you get the most out of them!

Japanese class for all levels! Affordable classes
Japanese classes for all levels, from beginner to intermediate and advanced! With these classes you will learn Japanese and Japanese culture, so you can speak fluently with natives in no time! And also be able to take and pass the official Japanese language exam. I have been in Tokyo so my pronunciation has improved a lot, which makes me able to help you improve yours too, avoiding typical mistakes that make natives notice the foreign accent! Besides, thanks to my year living in Tokyo I learned many words, slangs, idioms that are not taught in books and that I would love to teach my students.
