About Me

italki teacher since Jun 25, 2019

みなさんこんにちは！わたしはサキナです☺ Hello, everyone! I am Sakina. I was born and raised in Aichi, Japan. Now I’m working as a freelance online Japanese teacher. I mainly teach Japanese on italki, and also I teach Japanese on my social media such as Instagram and Youtube. I love my job and teaching Japanese is my passion! I love traveling the world and learning languages and cultures. I have lived in the US, Taiwan, and I have traveled to Canada, Malaysia, Korea, China, Thailand and so well. I like meeting wonderful people and learning something new from them. So feel free to talk about anything in our lesson! Look forward to having a lesson with you soon!

Me as a Teacher

I am a licensed native Japanese teacher. I've taught in many places like universities in the USA, Taiwan, language schools (both off line&online) in Taiwan, Japan, and Russia. Currently, I'm working as a freelance online Japanese teacher, and I have taught more than 1500 students. I'm enjoying teaching Japanese to people from all over the world and I'm delighted every time when I see my students' progress. My lesson is really flexible. You can decide what to do in our lesson. You can tell me your goal for Japanese, and then we can discuss what we need to do to achieve your goal. Looking forward to having you as my student and learn Japanese together!

My lessons & teaching style

My lesson is really flexible. You can tell me your goals for Japanese and I will tell you what we need to do to achieve your goals:) I believe that grammar is one of the most basic and essential things to be able to speak Japanese fluently and communicate with people naturally. So especially for beginners, I recommend using some textbooks and learn the structure. And then we can practice speaking and listening together.  For beginners, I use textbooks called みんなの日本語 and げんき. For advanced learners, I use 上級への扉. I also use flashcards, pictures, and websites that are related to the lesson topic. If you are not sure which textbooks are suitable for you, feel free to ask me!
