When I am not teaching or working, you can find me doing art, buying stoneware, listening to music, or watching silent vlogs. I also travel every once in a while (aka every time our budget permits) my favorite destination is Japan, specifically, Nagasaki.

    I am looking forward to seeing you in my class and to be hearing stories from you. Studying while having fun is possible and I can't wait to share this joy of learning with you!

    こんにちは。私の名前はこころです。 私は日本の四国地方出身で今はインドに住んでいます。 私は日本語のネイティブスピーカーで、レッスンでは日本語と簡単な英語を使います。 2年間外国人に日本語を教えてきました。 私は自然な日本語を使うフリーカンバセーションと漢字や日本の文化をシェアすることが得意です。 レッスンのあとには、復習用にフィードバックを送ったり、質問を受け付けています。 あなたの希望するレッスンスタイルにフォーカスします。 例えば日本に旅行しレストランで注文するロールプレイングをしたり、テキストを使ったり、ノートに日本語と英語を書いて丁寧に日本語を説明します。 特に私の得意な分野は日常会話、ビジネス会話、日本の文化、漢字、習字です。 また、関西と四国地方の方言を教えることも出来ます。 私に興味を持ってくれてありがとうございます! 一緒に楽しく日本語を学びましょう! Hello. My name is Kokoro. I am from the Shikoku region in Janan and currently live in India. I am a native Japanese speaker and use Japanese and simple English in my lessons. I have been teaching Japanese to foreigners for two years. I am good at free conversation using natural Japanese and sharing kanji and Japanese culture. After the lesson, you can provide feedback and ask questions. Focus on your desired lesson style. For example, you can role-play traveling to Japan and ordering at a restaurant, use text, or write Japanese and English in a notebook to carefully explain Japanese. I am particularly good at everyday conversation, business conversation, Japanese culture, kanji, and calligraphy. We can also teach dialects from the Kansai and Shikoku regions. Thank you for your interest in me! Let's have fun learning Japanese together! We will discuss the lessons you would like to take in advance and create a custom-made lesson just for you. I will conduct a survey in advance and try to ensure that there are no discrepancies between your requests and my classes.
