Iwashita Tutor Profile
Nice to meet you.
My name is “Iwashita,” and I teach Japanese (as a school subject), math, and social studies to elementary and junior high school students, as well as Japanese language to Japanese children living abroad and non-Japanese speakers. I can also teach beginner to intermediate level Thai. I do my best to give lessons “gently and carefully” according to each student’s ability, personality, and goals. Let’s enjoy studying together.
★★ Subjects and things I can help with ★★
1. Elementary to junior high school level Japanese and mathematics
I mainly teach the following students:
● Students who are struggling with their studies.
● Students who want to improve their academic ability to a higher level.
● Students who want to be taught carefully from the basics.
● Students who live abroad and want to acquire Japanese language skills appropriate to their grade level.
I have taught many such students. I am also happy to help students who,
Are not good at calculating but want to make math their strength.
Are not good at solving math problems.
Can do calculations, but have trouble with figures.
Since I have been involved in educating Japanese children living abroad for many years, I am familiar with their unique problems and can provide guidance tailored to each of their needs.
2. Japanese language for non-native speakers
I have passed the Japanese Language Teaching Proficiency Test and am an expert in Japanese language education.
I mainly offer the following lessons:
● Japanese language for beginners
● Japanese grammar and conversation
● Preparation for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test
● Japanese Free-talking
I love baseball, athletics, trains, and traveling. I can also talk about Japanese culture and anime. If you are interested, why not join me for a casual conversation?
3. Thai language for Japanese speakers
I have been living in Thailand for 20 years, and can teach beginner to intermediate level Thai. I know the difference between Japanese and Thai through experience, so I am well versed in what Japanese speakers find difficult, and can teach beginners in an easy-to-understand manner. I can teach you how to read the Thai alphabet, Thai grammar, pronunciation, and more, until you can converse with Thai speakers without any problems.
★★ Teaching Experience ★★
● 7 years of experience tutoring at one-on-one cram schools and as a private tutor while living in Japan.
● After moving to Thailand, I taught Japanese to local high school students and Japanese company employees for 15 years.
● 20 years of experience in teaching Japanese language and mathematics to Japanese students (mainly junior high school students) at a Japanese supplementary school.
I have taught over 2,000 students face to face.
● Currently, as an online tutor on four different platforms, including Cafetalk, I teach students from first grade elementary to third grade junior high school students living in Japan, the US, Canada, Paraguay, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia, as well as expats who are learning Japanese.
★★Lesson Flow and Content★★
Each student’s capabilities, personality, and goals are different, so I set goals that suit each individual, and plan lessons to help them achieve them. I can use learning materials of your choice, or I can recommend the best ones for you.
When children living abroad learn Japanese, it is often difficult for them to improve their language skills because they do not understand customs and annual events unique to Japan, which is hard not understand if you don’t live in Japan. Since language and culture are closely related, I try to offer such students the opportunity to experience Japanese culture online as much as possible, albeit indirectly. I also offer specialized reading and writing lessons for students whose Japanese language skills are not improving due to their insufficient understanding of Kanji.

【Lesson Example: Japanese as a school subject】
➀ First Lesson
● Free-talking with self-introduction
● A quick quiz to assess the student’s current level
● Requests from parents and discussion with them
② 2nd lesson onwards
● Reviewing the previous lesson and checking the homework
● Exercise and explanation of problems from ed materials
● Working on school homework and test preparation
● Homework
★★ Free-talking ★★
I have been living in Thailand for 20 years.
I can provide advice on anything about Thailand, Thai language, bilingual education for multicultural children, and Japanese language education for children living abroad based on my own experiences and observations.
I specialize in teaching Japanese to non-native speakers, so anyone who would like to learn to speak in Japanese are also welcome in my lessons!
Recently, I have also had many parents come to me to have a chat with their children who are not good communicators or have few opportunities to speak Japanese. I would be happy to have a casual chat with such students as well.
