About Me
italki teacher since Dec 19, 2020Interest topicFashion & BeautyFilms & TV SeriesAnimation & ComicsMedical & HealthcareFood
I began teaching Japanese at a university in Mexico, but despite my best efforts, I was troubled by the fact that my students learned grammar but DID NOT LEARN TO SPEAK. I began to study again under a professional instructor and to think about "how to really learn to SPEAK Japanese." After that I re-designed my own teaching materials from scratch. Today, my classes are designed to be "efficient, and to help students learn to speak Japanese," and many of the students I have taught have become able to speak Japanese. In particular, my original shadowing materials based on Genki textbooks have been very popular among student.I currently teach Japanese online in more than 12 countries!Me as a Teacher
When I was teaching at a university, I was stuck in the university syllabus and produced "students who understood grammar well but could not speak."
Based on that experience, I have crieated classes that are "efficient and really help students learn to speak".
Specifically
-Original PowerPoint with many illustrations
-Projects that focus on summarizing and speaking.
-Efficient vocabulary study with Quizlet(a vocabulary study app)
-Googleclassroom for managing homework and teaching materialsMy lessons & teaching style

Estoy increíblemente agradecido por mi experiencia aprendiendo japonés con Risa Sensei. No solo es una instructora paciente y comprensiva, sino que también presta atención a los detalles más pequeños, lo cual ha mejorado enormemente mi comprensión del idioma. Recomiendo ampliamente a Risa Sensei a cualquier persona que desee aprender japonés.

I am very pleased with our lessons every time we meet. The quality of Risa-sensei’s lessons is very consistent, and I would recommend her as a teacher to students of all levels. She is very organised and sets homework tasks. If you have to take a break for a bit she knows where you left off and can easily pick back up again. This is important because it means her lessons are tailored to you and she adapts based on how you are doing with certain aspects in comparison to other aspects. Not every student will have the same strengths and weaknesses, so having a teacher who can adapt like this is important.

I really love her study method for multiple reasons.
During the lesson Risa 先生 corrects my mistakes and she shows me a better alternative to express what I want.
Every lesson I can learn new expressions, grammar, kanji and vocabulary.
ありがとうございます！

Llevo 4 anios ya recibiendo clases de Risa-san y puedo decir que me ha ayudado muchisimo para subir de nivel y mejorar la precision de mi vocabulario. Sobre todo en la fase avanzada es algo dificil y un buen profesor como ella puede ayudar a mejorar y con el tiempo ir puliendo el uso de las palabras para cada contexto y uso. Recomiendo mucho sus clases de conversacion, fluye mucho y facil - hay como hablar de muchos temas y practicar mucho la conversacion.

100% recomendable! Acudí a Risa con el problema de que toda la gramática que iba aprendiendo se me olvidaba en situaciones de la vida real. Sus clases están muy bien diseñadas y son muy entretenidas. Cada día hacemos una rutina de ejercicios tanto de escuchar como de hablar, con los cuales pongo en práctica lo que voy aprendiendo. Día a día me noto mucho más fluido gracias a sus clases. Muchas gracias Risa! いつもありがとうございます 🙏🏻
