About Me

Hi, my name is Marina, a native Japanese speaker.
I was raised up in Japan and moved to Brasil in 2018.
I can speak English fluently, and speak portuguese as well.
I like to play the piano read books when I have free time.
Feel free to share your hobby with me! I also would be very happy if you can share your culture :D
Olá! Meu nome é Marina.
Eu sou Japonesa, e estou trabalhando como professora de Japonês no Brasil.
Eu gosto muito de ensinar japonês para meus alunos. Quando eu posso ver o progresso deles, isso me traz felicidade. Se você estiver interessado, vamos conversar comigo!
Me as a Teacher
【When I was a university student】
I had been helping Japanese child and exchange students to learn Japanese as a tutor.
I also had experienced teaching Japanese for American students in Arizona State University.
【Now】
I'm working as a Japanese teacher at Brazilian Japanese language school.
By being a teacher here, I realized that age doesn't matter!! There is no late to start learning.
Basically, when I teach, I will use Japanese all the way to improve your Japanese skill. But, you can also ask questions in English or Portuguese if it's hard. I understand how difficult to learn foreign languages by my experience. But I'll try my best to help you! Don't worry.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are based on conversation and I want my students to talk and practice what they've learned. When I teach Japanese, I'll make it simple and easy to understand as much as I can!
◆◆Available Textbooks◆◆
・げんき―GENKI
・みんなの日本語ーMINNA NO NIHONGO
・まるごとーMARUGOTO
・Textbooks for JLPT(総まとめ, 新完全マスター etc..)
I also use my original material (Flash cards and practice sheets).
--Class Absence Policy--
If the student doesn't show up within 15min, this is considered absent. NO REFUND will be given. At least 24-hour notice should be given for a lesson to be cancelled. Let’s respect each other.
