I was chosen in one of a Top 1% Japanese teachers of 2022!!! Thank you very much!
In such case, Japanese people say "おかげさまで Okagesamade" which means "Thanks to you" or " Because of you."
Japanese people think everything happens not only because of themselves but also people's help around them.
You will also learn Japanese way of thinking and culture in my lessons :)
I believe if you only master Japanese language but you don't understand its culture and people, it doesn't mean anything.
The most fun part of learning language is to understand different culture and people.
For you, the happiest moment would be sharing laughter with Japanese people by using your own Japanese.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons follows "Minna no Nihongo" which is one of most popular Japanese grammar textbooks in the world. However, we don't use it in class because my lessons are NOT for being a good READER but for "being a FLUENT SPEAKER."I will prepare many materials for you instead.
We will study Japanese grammar from a very simple form like:
"I am Your NAME." which is " Watashi wa Your NAME desu."
In Japanese, "I" is "Watashi wa" and "am" is "desu".
My name is YUZO, so " I am YUZO." in Japanese is " Watashi wa YUZO desu."
It is pretty simple, right?
Now you can introduce your name in Japanese!!!
We will practice those simple sentences until you will be able to use in the real life.My teaching material

I've put off another review for far too long. Today was my 103rd lesson with Yuuzou-sensei, and I can confirm that even after all this time it feels like every lesson is better than the last, mainly due to my skill increase due to Yuuzou-sensei's very patient and thoughtful teaching. I look forward to a hundred more!
今日はレビューを書くのが本当に遅くなってしまいました。今日で、雄三先生とのレッスンは103回目になりましたが、この全ての時間を通じて、前のレッスンよりも毎回が良くなっているように感じています。それは主に、雄三先生の忍耐強い、思慮深い指導のおかげで、私の能力がどんどん上がっているからです。次の100回のレッスンも楽しみにしています！

Yuzo-san makes miracles... He is making me talk in Japanese; sometimes I can't believe it! I know it is a long way towards fluency, but with Yuzo-san, I feel I'm on the right path. Thanks for being an awesome tutor!

This was my first lesson of the year and I was really happy that Yuzo Sensei gave me ample exercises on grammar, since I needed a strong foundation in order to move forward in my Japanese study.
I have been taking lessons with Yuzo Sensei just under a year and he has helped me improve steadily on grammar, vocabulary, reading and listening. Sensei also gives me weekly homework besides the custom-made lessons. Because of these continuous practices, I was confident enough to take the JLPT N5 test.
This year I look forward to working more with Yuzo Sensei in order to move up to N4 level.
