Hello, こんにちは, Bonjour!
My name is Lynn. I am from South Africa and live here in Pretoria. Running is my favourite pastime and I ran my first marathon in September 2023. I can read and write Hiragana and Katakana. Since returning from Japan, I've been studying Japanese continually and can explain certain words and sentences in Japanese.
I hold a BA Degree in Global Studies, as well as a TEFL Certificate.
My lessons mainly focus on English conversation, but will include reading and writing as well, depending on the lesson.
I prepare lessons relevant to your needs and daily life. Please feel free to talk to me, even if you are shy. I am here to help you and we will have fun while learning English. My aim is to keep you motivated and even after the lesson finishes, I will give you some tips to continue learning at home.
Looking forward to meet you!
Lynn
こんにちは。私の名前はリンです。私は南アフリカ出身で、夫と猫と一緒にここプレトリアに住んでいます。ランニングが私の一番の娯楽で、2023 年 9 月に初めてマラソンを走りました。ひらがなとカタカナの読み書きができます。
昨年日本から帰国して以来、継続的に日本語を勉強しており、いくつかのことは日本語で説明できます。
私はグローバルスタディーズの学士号とTEFL証明書を取得しています。
私のレッスンは英会話を中心に行いますが、レッスンによっては読み書きも含みます。
あなたのニーズや日常生活に合わせたレッスンを用意したいと思っています。人見知りでもお気軽にご相談ください。私はあなたのお手伝いをするためにここにいます、そして私たちは英語を楽しみながら学びます。私の目的は、生徒のモチベーションを維持し、レッスン終了後も自宅で学習を続けるためのヒントを提供することです。
あなたに会うのが楽しみ!

24 September 2023 - Berlin marathon, done!
At 32 km I definitely questioned my life choices, sanity, and existence in this world.

November 2023
I visted Japan for 3 weeks. My first week was spent in Tokyo.
I moved to Osaka for the second week. While based there, I visited Minoh City, where I witnessed the Monks' closing ceremony at Ryuanji Temple. Other day trips from Osaka were visits to Kyoto and Kobe.
During my third and final week, I visited Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I would like to return for another visit!
