JLPT Grammar [N5, N4, N3]

Have you ever had the experience of knowing a word but not being able to use that word to talk about many things? The reason for this may be that they do not know about "collocation".

For example, in English we say "to SET something on fire" and not "to PUT something on fire". Such combinations are also found in Japanese. This is called “collocation”. In this lesson, you will build up your vocabulary in line with the topic and see what combinations are commonly used.

The lesson textbooks are not divided by level; instead, all levels use the same textbook. Therefore, it contains a mix of difficult and easy words. However, these words are beneficial for everyday life and the JLPT.

I have work experience in Japan. In business Japanese, particularly with respect to honorific language, I am highly regarded, as reflected in the positive reviews I've received.

In my JLPT lessons, I focus on the grammar points that learners often struggle with, and I have a deep understanding of the common mistakes beginners tend to make from my years of experience. I excel at teaching beginners and specifically tailor my JLPT instruction for those at the beginner level.
