I am Teacher Ori (Kaori), a Japanese tutor with 4 years of experience. I teach expressions and vocabulary used in both Korea and Japan through 1:3 lessons with a Japanese teacher. During class, I check each student individually and conduct lessons in a comfortable atmosphere! Currently, I teach a diverse range of students, including elementary, middle, and university students, office workers, and business owners. My teaching style is designed to make learning fun.☺ 💛 Introduction to Teacher Ori (Kaori) & How I Differ from Other Teachers I have lived in Japan for over 25 years since birth. I have been in Korea for 6 years now. I teach expressions and vocabulary used when conversing with Japanese and Korean friends. During class, I use designated textbooks or provided materials! I guide students by correcting unnatural expressions and pronunciation, and changing them into natural-sounding expressions.^^ 💛 Teaching Method You can learn expressions used in real-life situations that are rarely found in textbooks, as well as natural speech patterns. In the lessons, we learn pronunciation checks, mini-tests, mini-conversations, and culture. Pronunciation correction is included in all lessons☺ I love Japanese and Korean dramas and movies, so I want to watch them without subtitles! I want to converse with Japanese and Korean friends! I want to travel freely between Japan and Korea! Why not have fun learning Japanese with me?^^*

만화처럼 빠져드는 일본 그림책
My child is very introverted, but since they enjoy drawing, characters, and foreign languages like English and Japanese (they just like encountering them, not studying them haha), I signed them up for this class to give them various experiences. I believe that motivation, enjoyment, and frequent exposure are more important than rote memorization when learning a foreign language, and I think this class is truly helpful for that purpose. Above all, Teacher Ori is incredibly kind and genuinely respects and cares for my child. My child gets very nervous, but thanks to the teacher, this was the first time they answered out loud during any of their Kookoo classes! Thank you so much, Teacher!

Thank you so much for your warm feedback, Mom. I am always striving to ensure that even introverted children can participate without feeling pressured. I am so touched to hear that your child answered out loud for the first time in my class. I will continue to do my best to ensure that they do not lose interest and can participate happily with a comfortable mind.

교재에 없는 살아있는 일본어 : 원어민 발음 교정으로 기초 완성
It has already been 29 sessions of studying Japanese with Teacher Kaori. My child started learning Japanese without even knowing Hiragana, simply because they wanted to learn after getting hooked on 'Demon Slayer'. Thanks to you, my child was able to maintain interest and study consistently. Hearing that they can now engage in simple free conversation, it really shows that motivation and a good teacher are crucial for language learning. I look forward to the free conversation classes as well!

Dear Mother, thank you so much for your warm and precious review😊 I am filled with emotion as we have already completed the entire Basic Japanese course. Since this is the first student to finish the basic course after I started Japanese classes at Kookoo, this student is even more special and will remain in my memory for a long time. I am truly grateful for your consistent support; you are a student who holds great significance for me as well. I am so proud to see you grow enough to engage in simple free conversation thanks to your unwavering interest in Japanese and your consistent adherence. Above all, I felt a great sense of reward in teaching you as I watched you think of what you wanted to say on your own and express it naturally during every free conversation session^^ I will continue to guide you with joy so that you can speak the Japanese you have learned even more naturally and confidently in future free conversation classes. Thank you once again for your valuable review♡

교재에 없는 살아있는 일본어 : 원어민 발음 교정으로 기초 완성
My child doesn't seem very interested in any of Kookoo's classes, but she really loves this Japanese class. Even when I'm out working, she turns it on by herself and plays it effortlessly (she's not usually that kind of child). I'm very satisfied. She's a happy child with no plans, but she takes this class seriously. Though, as always, she doesn't seem to do the homework very well, haha. She really likes the teacher and knows she's doing well (she thinks so herself), haha. Go, my daughter!

Dear Mother, thank you so much for leaving such a valuable review. I felt a great sense of reward hearing that your child looks forward to class and participates well even on their own. Also, hearing that your child likes me filled me with gratitude and made me feel an even greater sense of responsibility. I am truly proud to see my child participating happily as they become more accustomed to the class. I will continue to guide your child well so that they can learn happily and build confidence.
