My First Time Teaching Japanese

After a registration and a brief interview that I did a week ago, I finally was allowed to teach Japanese as a volunteer in one of a Japanese travel agency. Yesterday, I went there for my first lesson with anxiety and anticipation.

The lesson is one-on-one. There is one big lesson room provided that is supposed to be shared with other teachers and students. Your student and table are randomly chosen by the staffs.

My first student was a 18 year old high school girl from Romania who is a native Romanian and English speaker. So the Japanese language was a 3rd language for her. When I was guided her to the lesson table, She had already been sitting there.

"Hi, are you xxxxx? My name is xxxxx. Nice meeting you." I said.
"Konnichiwa, yoroshiku onegaishimasu ( hello, nice to meet you )"

We initiated the conversation.

Congratulations! I imagine Japanese is a hard language to learn (and teach)!
