Hello everyone, I am a 35 years old guy who is a certified Japanese teacher (tutor) and I am looking for someone I can teach only online (usually one on one lesson).
My main method is based on writing and speaking. When you can write, it means you can speak. If you know the word, you can hear it. I can correct and fix your writing and pronunciation. It's totally okay to make mistakes.
I can teach from a complete beginner. We can start from Hiragana and Katakana with some basic grammar. Then we can explore more. Just having some conversations is also good. We can come up with some topics and talk about it. Same goes for JLPT. All level and all age welcome.
Usually I don't use textbooks but if you have something and want to use it, we can do it too. I try to listen to what you need as much as possible. We can always adjust to your needs.
About myself, I have been to Canada, America, Australia, New Zealand, and India. My English was really bad at first so I know how it feels to be bad at another language in another country. I was teaching kids in Australia and was away from teaching some time. But I came back to teaching as a main job.
I like manga (a lot of them), movies, video games (ton of them mainly old ones) and writing about my daily life. Sometimes I write and make it separate into some pieces and use it as a material. I am more of a laid back person who enjoys a slow life. INFP.
I hope you enjoy it and we will keep going as long as we are both happy and feel fair to go.
