I am a Japanese native who enjoys piano, playing baseball, making videos, exercising, learning language (currently working on Chinese) etc. I have some work experience of electric engineering and content creation, but am also familiar with tourism, history, geography etc. about Japan. I can speak English (C1 level in CEFR) because I have learned it for over 5 years.
Me as a Teacher
italkiで約一年間、日本語を教えています(2021年1月現在)。ぼくは中級者から上級者の学習者の皆さんと相性がいいと思います。ぼくはほかの人の話を聞くのが好きなので、もしあなたが話す練習をしたかったら、話したいだけ話すことができますよ!あなたが話している間に、言葉選びや文の正確性などを集中して聞きます。そして、もっと他に良い言い方があれば、チャットで教えてあげます!
I have been teaching Japanese as a community tutor on italki for a year now (Jan. 2021). I think I would be a suitable teacher for intermediate and advanced Japanese learners. I like listening to others. If you want to practice speaking, you can speak as much as you want! While you are speaking, my focus is on your choice of words and the accuracy of your speech, and I check they are good enough to be understood for native. And I can type corrections and suggestions in the chat box for how to speak better.
My lessons & teaching style
ぼくのレッスンは基本的に会話を中心に行います。ぼくがランダムな話題(生活、テクノロジー、ビジネス、旅行、娯楽など、なんでも!)を用意してそれについて話します。それぞれの生徒さんのレベルに応じてぼくが話題を選びますが、もし何か話したい話題があればおしえてください。ぜひあなたの好きなことについて話しましょう!
My lesson is conversation-based. I prepare random topics, such as livelihood, technology, business, travel, pastime, or EVERYTHING, and have a chat about them with a student. I usually choose the topic based on your level, but if you have some topics you want to discuss, please let me know anytime. We can talk about anything you would like!

As always, Taka先生 was very supportive and helpful! His questions always help continue the conversation naturally and help me get comfortable with new words/sentences/topics. Additionally, I really appreciate how he types all the words and sentences I'm unsure about or don't know.
Thank you very much!!!

I have now had quite a number of lessons with Taka. He is great at asking me questions that really get me thinking and using my Japanese, as well as always pushing me out of my comfort zone and into the learning zone. He always goes to the extra effort of preparing questions to ask me, which keep the conversation moving. And, during the lesson, he explains everything that I don't understand, without using English (unless I am completely mystified, haha). He is really an excellent conversation teacher!
