Want to learn Japanese while cooking delicious food?にほんごをはなしながら、りょうりをしませんか？こんにちは！(Konnichiwa!)Hi! I’m Chiaki — a certified Japanese language teacher and passionate home cook, based in Kobe, Japan. In my online class, you can enjoy learning Japanese through hands-on cooking lessons — directly from Japan!The theme is “Japanese language learning × Japanese home cooking.”You’ll learn words like 「おいしい！」(Oishii! = Delicious!), 「これはなんですか？」(Kore wa nan desu ka? = What is this?), and even how to say 「いただきます」(Itadakimasu = Let’s eat) before meals.Most dishes are plant-based and gentle on the body, but sometimes I include eggs or fish depending on the menu. (Vegan-friendly) options are available — just let me know in advance!My English is at an intermediate level, but I’m full of passion! I speak mostly in やさしいにほんご (easy Japanese), and I support you in English when needed. Even beginners are very welcome — I speak slowly and clearly to help you feel comfortable.I live in Kobe (こうべ) near Osaka, Japan, and the time difference between Japan and Australia is only about one hour, so it’s easy to schedule lessons that work for you!Do you like Japan？にほんはすきですか？If you’re interested in Japanese language, food, and culture, I’d love to connect with you from Kobe.Let’s enjoy cooking and learning Japanese together — いっしょに たのしみましょう！
