About Haruka
Hajimemashite! My name is Haruka. I grew up in Chiba/Tokyo and moved to Nara prefecture where I worked for 3 years in an insurance company. I decided to change my career to teaching and studied for the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test. After successfully passing the exam, I moved to Sydney and started working at a language school from September 2018. Since then, I have been teaching different types of learners in both one-on-one and group lesson settings. When I'm not teaching, I'm practicing Taiko (Japanese drums). I have been playing taiko for 6 years and recently started teaching and performing at schools and workshops. I love traveling and learning new languages. I did my exchange study in Estonia for 1 year during my university to learn new cultures and languages. In my free time, I like to make YouTube videos and watch shows on Netflix. My students are studying with me to achieve various goals such as... - Learn basic Japanese to prepare for travel - Prepare for exchange study in Japan - Receive support for university study - Pass the JLPT - Understand Japanese in Anime and manga I have many students who have started from a complete beginner and they are now able to communicate in Japanese. I recently tutored a student to prepare for a speech contest organized by the Embassy of Japan in Norway and she successfully won the first prize. Both private and group lessons available in person and online! Feel free to reach me for any questions!

*My teaching Philosophy* I believe that speaking and the application of language is the best way to improve! I do my best to maximize the students' speaking time. This helps grammar and pronunciation sink in better. *Tailored lessons for you* I like to tailor lessons individually, depending on students' levels and learning styles through choosing proper materials and carefully monitoring and guiding their progress. I use not only the existing materials, but also handmade materials which I made using various software. - beginner to intermediate levels: a combination of textbook material and speaking practice to introduce and consolidate the grammar. - advanced levels: often complex written material such as manga, novels or magazines that are either the students' choice or my recommendation. - children: games and interactive materials for full student engagement *Lesson structure* A brief summary of how each session goes. 1. Introduction of grammar Grammar of the lesson with example sentences and visual aids are introduced. 2. Grammar Practice Students practice grammar by changing the syntax with new vocabulary. 3. Conversation Practice Students learn and practice creating conversation using the grammar 4. Listening exercises Students listen to either pre-recorded or personally spoken conversation at native speed. *Languages used for teaching* Mainly Japanese to immerse students in the language A combination of English and Japanese is used to assist beginners

Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Haruka is a professional, caring and patient tutor. She provides constructive feedback and is always willing to go the extra mile for her students. Her lessons are always engaging and Haruka makes learning Japanese an enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend her.
Having some prior knowledge of Japanese, Haruka was a great help in identifying the areas that I needed to work on. She also puts in great effort to find material that suit my interests and goals, as well as explaining it in an understandable way. Her positive energy make the lessons very enjoyable.
Earlier this year, I took part in a national speech contest, where she was very helpful during my preparation. Not only did she make sure that my speech was in correct Japanese, she also helped me with intonation as well as stage presence.
Haruka is a dedicated teacher with a passion for teaching, and I would recommend her lessons to any student at any level.See more recommendations
