Strategy Meeting - Check your "actual" Japanese level

Would you like to know what level your Japanese actually is? Would you like to know which part of your Japanese is in need of extra work? I will stay brutally honest to support you for upgrading Japanese efficiently. Like "no pain, no gain", weak points could be the sweet spot because it has the space to grow once you know what to do and how to work on.
My schedule could be flexible so please feel free to contact me!

About Me

Hello, my name is Hoshi. I am a Japanese tutor who loves languages from childhood, it gives me a great joy to listen to what people are passionate about and their life stories as well. I enjoy anime, movies, music, books and cooking. By the way my favorite animal is cats.

Education

Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok. State University of New York at Potsdam. What I dedicate for whole my university years is how to teach, translate and proofread.

Experience / Qualifications

Over 14 years of teaching experience for students of any age (7 – 60 years). I have been teaching Japanese from beginner to advanced level.

Private students, university students, a consul and his family. I found that many people who made a great improvement in Japanese have three commons. One is a hobby they are into. Second is a desire of communication of how they would like to talk if they were fluent in Japanese. Third is a notice that heart matters.

I have helped students to prepare for Monbukagakusyo scholarship and JLPT exams by my experience as an examiner. Proofreading is one of what I dedicate my heart very much, respect what you wrote and do heart-to-heart proofreading to make your essay/document perfect in the way you wish.

She is a very kind, helpful, and honest teacher.
Hoshi-San was very kind, polite, and understanding. She is a spectacular woman. I really enjoyed my time with her.
Hoshi is amazing. She is very friendly, reliable, and enthusiastic. My kids really enjoy her and I feel grateful to have found her!
This online conversation class is for those who would like to try often and talk more. You are the main person in my class, so please let me know what you would like to talk about, your hobbies that make you stay up, your future job hunting in Japan, everyday life, etc. I am all ears! Shall we 挑戦?
Welcome to my class! Please tell me what you aim with your Japanese study, for education, for JLPT, for traveling. Also tell me how you have studied Japanese. I carefully think which method and materials would work best for you. My class is customized for you and I am not the type of tutor who uses same materials for anyone. Before class time I devote preparing class for you and after class I will dedicate extra time for review to make your next class to be better. I know how to study Japanese and guide you to what you aim for (please take a look at my profile). I expect you to work hard, really hard, not only during class but before and after as well. I might ask you do homework to strengthen what needs extra practice. If you have a question that you noticed after class, contact me. Once you decide to take my classes, please trust me, study very hard for what you dream to get and make great effort for yourself. I have got your back!
Touch up your resume for future study/job hunting in Japan and practice for the interview. Practice everyday-Japanese. Sharpen up your Business Japanese. Prepare for JLPT exams (N5-N1). After listening how and what would you like to study/practice, I would like us to discuss to suggest you custom-made study plans. At the end of each class, I would love to tell what you now can say/express correct grammatically and also what to work on more or the next. I might ask you to do homework, if you do not mind. It is all up to you!

Sachiko
Japanese Lessons with Sachi, I am an experienced Japanese teacher
I enjoy cooking, painting, traveling, reading, and yoga. My lessons are extremely well planned and organized so there’s no time wasted and I enjoy forming a trusting relationship with my students. When students trust their teacher they feel free to ask questions and know that it’s okay to ask the same question repeatedly until they fully understand. Another important feature of my lessons is the quality of my follow-up reviews. My reviews are meticulous, complete with footnotes that offer supplementary information. Because of my detailed feedback students not only learn during my lesson, but after it as well. I’m so happy to know that some of my students print out my reviews and keep them in a folder for self-study! From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank all of my students I’ve met during my teaching career. They always make me laugh, feel warm inside, and motivate me to become a better teacher. Learning is a long journey so let’s have fun together and make it worth our time! I am looking forward to getting to know you!
