About Me
italki teacher since Jun 29, 2021
Interest topicTravelArtFilms & TV Series
Hello. My name is Chieko. I am Japanese. I live in Kyoto prefecture, near Nara in Japan. I am a certified Japanese teacher. I can speak English and German moderately if you like. I lived in Scotland for a half year and in Germany for more than 10 years. In Germany I started learning German from scratch. Therefore I know it’s very hard for adults to learn a new language. although it’s also fun at the same time. My hobby is traveling, reading books, watching movies, Netflix, baking cakes, Haiku, painting and so on. I like to talk with people.
Me as a Teacher
I am a certified Japanese teacher. I passed the Teaching Competency Test two years ago after completing all the required training course of 420 hours. I have a master degree in Intercultural studies. I'm a friendly and patient teacher.

My lessons & teaching style
Each student has their own goal. I will personalize my classes for each. I can offer conversational, pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary and writing classes, as what you need. At the free conversation, I would like to talk with you about your friends, family, school, town, food, culture, seasons and weather, and so on. At the lessons, the direct method is generally used, but English and German explanation can be made for beginners.
I prefer Zoom to italki class room as italki provides only limited functions for Mac book.
人によって日本語を学ぶ目的や学ぶ方法は違うと思います。希望を聞いてそれに合わせたクラスにしたいと思います。会話、発音、文法、語彙、作文などを教えることができます。みなさんの住む街や日本のこと食べ物や文化などたくさん話したいと思っています。 直接法(日本語で)教えますが、初心者の方で必要な時は英語やドイツ語で説明することもできます。

I always learn so much every lesson. I've been studying with Chieko-san for about 6 months now and have vastly improved as a result. One of the best teachers on italki and I'm so thankful for every lesson I'm able to book with her! Highly recommended.

I feel like every lesson I always learn so much about so many different things with Chieko. She breaks things down eloquently and it's very easy to learn with her!
