If you are feeling ... - I want to learn English grammar or conversation, but I'm worried about learning with a native speaker. - English at school is difficult and I need some tips for studying. Let's start studying with me! I have studied at Japanese, British and Austrian universities and hold a Ph.D degree. I also have 8 years of experience as a teacher and 15 years of experience as a study abroad consultant. As I'm not a native speaker, I can understand better problems English leaners, especially Asian learners, have. I myself studied English a lot 😉. I can teach how to write English essays as I have 14 years of experience in teaching English essay writing for European university entrance exams. Based on my 20 years of experience living in the UK, Switzerland, and Austria, I can also provide conversation lessons based on situations unique to living abroad. [English grammar] I can offer different lessons depending on each student's level of English grammar. We can help you prepare up to the level of university entrance exams using your own school materials or my original teaching materials. [English conversation] This will be conducted in an interactive format based on various themes and situations. Themes can be anything from daily and travel conversation to interviews for university entrance exams and various English proficiency exams. [English essay] I can teach how to write essays in English for bachelor's level at European undergraduate or graduate school entrance exam level . Let's start thinking about the structure together. I cannot proofread, though! Try it out with a trial lesson first! In the trial lesson, you will tell me in advance what you want to learn and your current language level, and then the lesson will be held in an interactive format. As a teacher and consultant, I have worked with many students and working adults, and love helping people learn new languages ​​and explore new worlds! Please feel free to ask me questions about Japanese culture, Kyoto, Japanese universities, etc. If you are interested in studying abroad at a university in Japan or Europe, I think I can help you with that. Please feel free to contact me.

    Today was another fun lesson, but I realized that I lacked vocabulary. I will do my best to study in advance.

    It was nice meeting you. Teacher Saki was all set before I came to the class and the lesson flowed smoothly. 発音、喋るテンポも聞きやすく私のような初中級の方にも合う先生だなと思いました😊
