We can discuss your goals and how I can help you reach them. Feel relaxed to take my trial lesson and experience my method! 

You can see what kind of materials I use in my lesson.
🔸If you have any materials you want to use, please feel free to show me. 
🔸And it would be helpful if you could tell me the names of any textbooks or language learning apps you have used.
🔸If your child is having a trial, please be sure to let me know their age, gender, favorite Japanese food, characters, etc. in advance so that we can proceed with peace of mind on the day. I appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

I'm from Tokyo and I speak standard Japanese.

In my work, I have experience in radio talks and hosting large conferences, so I am good at teaching speech contests and interviews (including dictation, pronunciation, and accent). 

※  I'm interested in the relationship between language and culture, and I like not only serious Japanese but also informal Japanese, comedy, movies, songs, poems, dialects, etc.

Learn Japanese language and culture together and learn the basics of communication using the "Marugoto" series and more. I will teach you how to talk about yourself in Japanese.

■I have taught "Minna no Nihongo" and "GENKI", so I will support those who have studied with those textbooks until they become accustomed to "Marugoto".

■The students who study together in "Marugoto" have fun preparing for their lessons every time.This is because you can improve quickly.

■We use many photos and illustrations to make learning easy and fun.
You can develop the habit of studying Japanese while constantly focusing on yourself and making comparisons, such as "What would happen in my case?"

For example, ``I thought it was interesting to have particles that are not in my native language.''
Or Japanese people use "Sumimasen" a lot not only to apologize, but also to say thank you! 

There are many more discoveries!
This will expand the fun of learning a new language!

🔴CourseA🔴【including Speaking, Speech,Interview】Language Essentials

Learn Japanese 3 characters in an effective way.
If you firmly establish ``Hiragana'' and ``Katakana'', learning "kanji” will be very smooth.
Additionally, when typing Japanese in online chats or SNS, you will be able to type faster and more accurately than you can now.

Even if you are an intermediate level student, if you have memorized letters by self-study such as using a tracing app, this is your chance to learn how to draw beautiful letters!
Surprise the Japanese you meet for the first time, your Japanese colleagues, and your Japanese friends!

This is a lesson to support your enjoyable trip to Japan.
Using the original slides I created as the main teaching material, I will customize the lesson to suit you based on the time you have left before the departure of your trip.

🔸It doesn't matter what the purpose or reason for your trip is. 
If you wish, we can also discuss your travel plans. I have experience working at the City Tourism Association, so I am good at supporting your travel plans.
Let's learn useful expressions when traveling to Japan! (especially Hokkaido!)

🔸Whether it's your first trip to Japan or your second or more time, Hokkaido is a great place to visit, with spring, summer, fall, and winter all having their own charms.You can enjoy the great outdoors and the food is delicious in all seasons.
In addition to being popular for adventure tourism（AT） from overseas, it is also a very popular destination for Japanese people on domestic honeymoons, graduation trips, post-retirement trips, and adventure trips to find themselves.

🔸I am from Tokyo, and my family and I moved to Hokkaido in 2019 because of its charm.
In January2024, I stayed at a guesthouse in Asakusa, Tokyo. I also love Tokyo, and I feel that Tokyo has a charm that can only be found in Tokyo, and that Hokkaido has a charm that can only be found in Hokkaido.

【生徒の声 Student's voice】
Misao-san's diverse experiences (working and living) allow for engaging and insightful conversations during our lessons, enriching the learning experience far beyond the textbook. I am incredibly impressed by her ability to tailor a teaching proposal that perfectly suits my needs—focusing on improving my conversational Japanese and expanding my vocabulary. What truly sets Misao-san apart is her dedication to finding various creative ways to teach. Her flexibility and willingness to adapt her teaching methods make it easy for me to identify and correct my usual mistakes, allowing for continuous improvement through practice and review after each lesson. Misao-san is not just a qualified tutor; she is a professional who is truly dedicated to her students. I highly recommend her to anyone serious about mastering Japanese!

Technical Assistant: Responsible for research support related to salmon and other fish farming.
ーI took good care of the fish that were the subject of research by international students and researchers, and reported and explained my observation records to them who regularly visited the fish breeding site.

I worked with local, ambitious farmers and learned about their way of life and beliefs.
 I was able to experience the harsh yet majestic nature of Hokkaido and reconsider the relationship between nature and humans.
