      Japanese teacher living overseas ✨ English fluent ✨ Teen & adults 🙆‍♀️ Before coming to the Philippines, I worked as an elementary school teacher in Japan, so I have experience and knowledge in teaching.
      When it comes to teaching the JLPT, I have evidence and logical explanations. 
      I am good at teaching by getting students to talk a lot and adding new things or things that are wrong.

      Why choose Takayoshi M.
      "Taka-sensei is a great and very motivated teacher. He answers all questions I‘m asking and knows how to keep his students motivated. I’m a real beginner and my current progress is faster and better than the time when I was studying using different apps. Even though he‘s not giving me any homework to do, I‘d advise everyone to take some time reviewing everything before attending another class since he likes to ask questions about some contents of past lessons."

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I skill up on Japanese in Tampa, FL and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with recorded courses, you have four primary possibilities for learning Japanese interactively in Tampa, FL. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, research centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are cheaper.) Your second possibility can be local commercial language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can opt for a private Japanese tutor in Tampa, FL. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Tampa, FL and online Japanese tutors.

    🎟 How expensive is it to learn Japanese and what do Japanese tutors charge?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Japanese course cost by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for about 50 class hours each semester. Language academies and independent Japanese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the better priced Japanese tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor hometown, availability and specialization. Average student satisfaction for Japanese lessons on Preply is 4.97 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What are the requirements for Japanese language skill level to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared demonstrate proof of your current level. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and testing, so research the details in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. As proven by others before, you can gain basic Japanese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand most words, be understood when you talk, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After mastering basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Japanese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking Japanese?

    Some people have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Japanese will necessitate at least 600 hours of dedication. The length of time can differ quite a bit depending on your already acquired level of Japanese or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, try typing using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try more ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the Japanese coach?

    In colleges and universities, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, always! The largest selection of verified Japanese tutors with full profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

    🗓 Will I be able to fit lessons in my busy schedule?

    Colleges usually structure classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools as a rule offer shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
