My Teaching Approach: From Language Mastery to Career Success
1. Building a Solid Foundation (Fluency & Accuracy)
My first priority is to enhance your overall Japanese language ability. I focus on:
*Natural Fluency: Moving beyond textbook Japanese to speak like a native.
*Precise Grammar & Nuance: Understanding "why" we use certain expressions so you can speak with confidence.
*Deep Conversation: Developing the ability to express complex thoughts and opinions clearly.
2. Mastering High-Level Keigo
Once the foundation is set, I help you refine your Japanese to a professional level. Drawing from my experience as a Secretary to CEOs and a Receptionist at a 2-star Michelin restaurant, I teach:
*Elegant Honorifics: The sophisticated Keigo used by professionals to build trust with executives and VIPs.
*Polite Manners: The cultural etiquette that accompanies the language.
3. Specialized Coaching Based on 20+ Years of HR Experience
For those looking to work or advance their career in Japan, I provide unique insights that only a former HR Manager and Global Team Leader can offer:
*Strategic Interview Prep: I’ve interviewed hundreds of candidates. I know exactly what Japanese hiring managers are looking for.
*Professional Resume Polishing: Crafting a "Jiko PR" (self-promotion) that gets you noticed.
*Business Etiquette: Mastering emails, meetings, and office communication to excel in your role.
