Would you like to have online lessons with me?
I teach my Premium Plan members!
It’s a yearly subscription course that focuses on improving how you sound by learning Japanese phonetics. It includes 34 video lessons on Japanese phonetics, 9 conversation practice videos (currently ongoing), and 11 listening practice videos.
You’ll learn about Japanese pronunciation, rhythm, pitch accent, and intonation, then practice with me. I’ll give you thorough feedback during private lessons. This plan includes two 45-minute lessons.
If you’re not ready for live lessons but would still like to get feedback from me, how about joining the Standard Plan?
It’s a monthly subscription plan where you can watch the same videos as Premium Plan members. You can also participate in the monthly Pronunciation Challenge, and I’ll provide personalized feedback via video!

1月の第2月曜日は、「成人の日」で、国民の祝日です。
つまり、今週末の三連休のどこかで「成人式」が行われます。
日本に住んでいるみなさんは、着物をきた20歳ぐらいの女の人を何人をみるかもしれません。その人たちは成人式に行く人たちです。
なので、そんな話もしています。ぜひ聴いてください😊
Have you ever heard of the word “Seijinshiki” (Coming-of-Age Ceremony)?
The second Monday of January is “Coming-of-Age Day,” a national holiday in Japan.
The Seijinshiki ceremonies are held sometime during the three-day weekend, which is this weekend!
If you’re living in Japan, you might see several young women dressed in kimono around that time. These are the people attending the Seijinshiki.
My daughter is also participating in the Seijinshiki this year.
So, I’ll be talking about that as well. Please give it a listen! 😊
