It was good to go back to revise as the grammar is quite difficult now. Thank you Miku san.
Konnichiwa. I'm a native Japanese speaker and qualified Japanese teacher. Currently, I'm teaching at a language school in the Czech republic. I have taught at a local university and for trainees at Japanese companies here.
I can teach Japanese for the level beginners to intermediate. If you are interested in taking the JLPT exam, I can also support you preparing for it.
When I was still in Japan, I was working at Japanese companies for 4 years, so if you'd like to, I can also teach you Japanese business manner and how to work with Japanese companies efficiently.

Teaching Approach
I use the communicative approach for teaching.
-for beginners; I can start from hiragana, katakana, and grammar, conversation, listening, reading. I will probably speak in English in the beginning, and will try to add more Japanese as the course goes on.
-for intermediate students; I can teach kanji, grammar, vocabulary, grammar, reading, conversation, listening. I will use direct method and mainly speak in Japanese during the lesson.
-for JLPT applicants ; we can try some past problems together and focus on the part you need to prepare better.
