Private Online Tutoring - Adults, Univeristy Students, Leaving Cert Students Welcome!

Hi there! My name is Laoise. I have been studying Japanese for 13 years, and received my JLPT N2 qualification in January 2022. In March 2020 won the 18th JLTI National Japanese Speech Contest. I have studied in Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto in 2016, and in Meiji Academy in Fukuoka in 2019. I have travelled extensively throughout Japan, visiting 9 cities, and would love the chance to share my love of the Japanese Language with you. I took the Leaving Cert Japanese exam myself (as an extra subject) in 2014, and achieved an A2 grade.
I studied Drama and Theatre Studies in Trinity College Dublin (-) where I trained in workshop facilitation, and have worked as in actor for 16 years, and so naturally I have a love of Japanese films and anime.
I also have a GA Level 5 Diploma in Teaching English as a Foreign Language with specialisms in Business English, One-to-One teaching and Online teaching, so I have a confident grounding in teaching methodologies and specifically in private online tutoring.

I'm here to support you, and so can help you with whatever you're feeling unsure about. I can most efficiently work with you if you give me as much information as possible about yourself: what level your Japanese is, what you like/dislike about learning Japanese, what you feel confident/unsure about, and why you want to learn Japanese (this is particularly important, so we can figure out fun ways for you to improve, rather than just learning off lists of vocab and grammar!). I am not a native Japanese speaker, but I think this actually gives me an advantage in that I have extensive experience as learner: being in exactly the position you are in. I understand how to figure out Japanese from an English-speaker's perspective, which will be useful in assisting you on your language journey.
