About Me

Hello, my name is Hoshi. I am a Japanese tutor who loves languages from childhood, it gives me a great joy to listen to what people are passionate about and their life stories as well. I enjoy anime, movies, music, books and cooking. By the way my favorite animal is cats.

Education

Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok. State University of New York at Potsdam. What I dedicate for whole my university years is how to teach, translate and proofread.

Experience / Qualifications

Over 14 years of teaching experience for students of any age (7 – 60 years). I have been teaching Japanese from beginner to advanced level.

Private students, university students, a consul and his family. I found that many people who made a great improvement in Japanese have three commons. One is a hobby they are into. Second is a desire of communication of how they would like to talk if they were fluent in Japanese. Third is a notice that heart matters.

I have helped students to prepare for Monbukagakusyo scholarship and JLPT exams by my experience as an examiner. Proofreading is one of what I dedicate my heart very much, respect what you wrote and do heart-to-heart proofreading to make your essay/document perfect in the way you wish.

Hoshi-San was very kind, polite, and understanding. She is a spectacular woman. I really enjoyed my time with her.
Hoshi is amazing. She is very friendly, reliable, and enthusiastic. My kids really enjoy her and I feel grateful to have found her!
Welcome to my class! Please tell me what you aim with your Japanese study, for education, for JLPT, for traveling. Also tell me how you have studied Japanese. I carefully think which method and materials would work best for you. My class is customized for you and I am not the type of tutor who uses same materials for anyone. Before class time I devote preparing class for you and after class I will dedicate extra time for review to make your next class to be better. I know how to study Japanese and guide you to what you aim for (please take a look at my profile). I expect you to work hard, really hard, not only during class but before and after as well. I might ask you do homework to strengthen what needs extra practice. If you have a question that you noticed after class, contact me. Once you decide to take my classes, please trust me, study very hard for what you dream to get and make great effort for yourself. I have got your back!
Touch up your resume for future study/job hunting in Japan and practice for the interview. Practice everyday-Japanese. Sharpen up your Business Japanese. Prepare for JLPT exams (N5-N1). After listening how and what would you like to study/practice, I would like us to discuss to suggest you custom-made study plans. At the end of each class, I would love to tell what you now can say/express correct grammatically and also what to work on more or the next. I might ask you to do homework, if you do not mind. It is all up to you!

Ayaka
Let's learn Japanese with a native through a casual talk
-------About me Name: Ayaka Origin: Osaka Japanese: Standard Japanese, Kansai dialect Jobs: Flight Attendant (past), Yoga Instructor (active) Hobbies: Traveling, Yoga, Photography, Walking and hiking, Cooking, Skiing, Animal lover ----------About the Lesson--------------------- The main focus will be on "Speaking." Q. Why is speaking the main focus? A. We want you to experience the joy of speaking Japanese through free talk. Just learning words from manga is not easy to understand what natives say in daily life. I will assist you in learning vocabulary and acquiring natural expressions by speaking with native Japanese speakers. -----A message to the students at the end----- I love cultural exchange and have a friendly personality. Having traveled to various countries and learning German, I understand the challenges and joys of learning a new language firsthand. This makes me happy to be able to help you learn Japanese. I look forward to the day when we can have enjoyable conversations together.

Japanese class for all levels! Affordable classes
Japanese classes for all levels, from beginner to intermediate and advanced! With these classes you will learn Japanese and Japanese culture, so you can speak fluently with natives in no time! And also be able to take and pass the official Japanese language exam. I have been in Tokyo so my pronunciation has improved a lot, which makes me able to help you improve yours too, avoiding typical mistakes that make natives notice the foreign accent! Besides, thanks to my year living in Tokyo I learned many words, slangs, idioms that are not taught in books and that I would love to teach my students.
