Meet Akari: Your Expert Japanese Teacher
I’m an expert in teaching beginner-intermediate Japanese as a foreign language and hold several language teaching certificates. With my extensive experience and qualifications, you can rest assured that you are learning from a highly skilled teacher who understands the nuances of the Japanese language and can guide you through the learning process.
The Communicative Approach: Learn Japanese Through Practical Communication
The communicative approach is the backbone of my Japanese online programs. I believe that focusing on practical communication, rather than grammar and translation, helps learners attain tangible goals through communication. This approach encourages active discovery of the new language, placing you at the forefront of the learning process.
Say goodbye to tedious grammar and translation exercises and say hello to communicating in Japanese!
Personalized Learning Experience
A communicative approach does not require traditional one-on-one lessons to be effective.
In my work, personalized learning is achieved through carefully structured programs that guide learners step by step, while still allowing flexibility based on individual needs.
Instead of relying on isolated lessons, learners practice speaking through repeated themes, realistic prompts, and guided reflection.
This structure helps learners notice important language patterns, understand why certain expressions work—or don’t—and gradually build confidence in using Japanese in real situations.
By focusing on meaningful communication rather than correcting every small mistake, learners can develop practical speaking skills and make steady progress without feeling overwhelmed.
How the Communicative Approach Is Used in My Programs
In my current work, I mainly support learners through structured programs rather than one-to-one online lessons.
These programs are designed around the communicative approach, focusing on using Japanese in realistic situations instead of memorizing grammar rules in isolation.
Learners practice speaking through guided prompts, repeated themes, and meaningful tasks that encourage active language use.
Rather than correcting every small mistake, the focus is on noticing important patterns, understanding why something doesn’t work, and gradually building confidence through reflection and practice.
This approach helps learners stay motivated, develop real communication skills, and see steady progress—even without traditional private lessons.
Slow Japanese Podcast: Enhance Your Learning Experience
In addition to my online Japanese programs, I also offer a podcast called “Slow Japanese.” This podcast is designed to enhance your Japanese learning experience by providing you with an immersive listening experience in a slow and easy-to-understand manner.
The Slow Japanese podcast covers a variety of topics such as Japanese/world culture, society, and lifestyle, and each episode is spoken by a native Japanese speaker at a deliberately slow pace to help you improve your listening and comprehension skills.
Listening to the Slow Japanese podcast can also help you develop your vocabulary and learn new expressions and phrases that you may not encounter in traditional Japanese lessons. By incorporating the podcast into your learning routine, you can supplement your online lessons and take your Japanese language skills to the next level.
Best of all, the Slow Japanese podcast is available for free on major podcast platforms such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts, etc, so you can easily access it anytime, anywhere. So, why not add the Slow Japanese podcast to your Japanese language learning toolbox today and start experiencing the benefits of immersive and enjoyable language learning?
