Teacher

Hello, I'm Mikiko from Miki's Japanese!

Thank you for watching my videos and checking my profile!

Here's a little bit about myself.

I was born and raised in Japan and went to Canada for the first time in my 20s.
The reason I decided to go in Canada was because a Canadian teacher came to my English class when I was in junior high school. I was so happy to be able to understand English spoken by a native speaker for the first time, and from there I immersed myself in learning English.

After returning to Japan, I worked as an interpreter for a company and as a university lecturer, and now I teach Japanese to people all over the world on a freelance basis.
I love this job because I am always meeting new people.

I hope to meet you all somewhere down ... See full profile

One of the most exciting things for foreign visitors coming to Japan is, of course, the variety of delicious Japanese cuisine. Sushi, cut a gay man, Chebyshev, etc. There are surely many things you would like to eat. In this video, you will learn some useful phrases that you should know when eating at a Japanese restaurant. The videos are divided into three series. Entering a restaurant, ordering food and paying the bill. Each video is filled with phrases that the waiter will say and phrases that you should know to enjoy your meal even more. After learning phrases for each situation, you will practice dialogues with me. These dialogues are based on typical Japanese restaurant conversations. So you can practice them while imagining you are eating in Japan. Also, if you follow my voice and do shadowing exercises for the parts where I'm reading the entire dialogue, it will be a great help for you to become fluent in Japanese.
