Maki
Hi, my name is Maki.
I am an experienced and WJLC certified Japanese teacher. I have been teaching here in Canberra for two years. I have taught about 30 students (private and class), from beginners to advanced, 7 years old to over 70.
I know how exciting but difficult to learn foreign languages because I have been learning English for my entire life. I can understand how you feel and am able to lead you gently or quickly. I am interested in global cultures, histories, and foods. I want to share with you those of Australian and Japanese origin.
My lesson style is flexible, according to your preference. I use “Minna no Nihongo “as a textbook. I teach you grammar, vocabularies, and useful phrases in conversations. I do free talk during the lessons, so you won’t be too tired.
Both face to face and online options are available. I live in North Canberra.
I’m looking forward to seeing you!
