eduFire Tutor Intro: Koichi

[WintersSkyNight]

i know this video is old but i would really like to learn japaneses so um could you give me some basic good tips  ^o^

[bahcbouch]

aren't you japanese?

[poli21]

you are an amazing guy, Koichi :)

[jashaunti]

[0Solenklier0]

I sooo wish that i could learn japanese, but i dont have three things..

The money.

Your not accepting any more students at the moment.

I don't have a computer camera. :'(

[nororu]

Koichi-Sensei!  Just want you to know that your blog and japanese links have helped and inspired me to not drop Japanese!!! Arigato!!!

[rhapsodyphantom]

I'm going into teaching as well. And I've admired the Japanese culture since middle school.

One would think I would want to teach in Japan. Well...I never thought about it until recently. That's a big decision to make, but I am open to it. I'd like to hear from people who may have taught there or think of teaching there.

はじめまして、　Koichi-さん！　(I'm afraid to spell your name because I'm not sure if it's hiragana/what kanji it is. xD) I can't wait until you start doing lessons that are more my level.

[KyomiUeda]

WOW i could actually read that hirigana! woohoo im getting better.... ^^

[tofugu]

I take the (somewhat strange) katakana route, since I'm American: コウイチ

[Sian103]

I dunno why, but I've always liked the idea of teaching a language in another country..

it just sounds so fun ..as weird as it sounds xD

N' thats kinda one of the reasons I wanna try learn Japanese(when I'm a bit older) but I wanna try have a mini-headstart now ^^ (I'm only 13 atm)

So.. thanks for making these free learn japanese lessons here on YouTube ^-^

[supergirll92]

[lonewolf604]

hmmm....i'm learning mandarin in college right now, is it a bad idea to learn japanese online?

[edufirejapanese]

Well, there is the relation of kanji, which is better than nothing?

[Jashintoubara]

isnt Mandarin Chinese :l

[lonewolf604]

my point(question) being, would learning mandarin and japanese at the same time be too confusing for me

[balliditz]

i am right now. hahaha.

it depends on how you learn.

for me it's not that hard.

but like i said, it's how the person learns.

The hardest thing is the tones in Mandarin and no tones in Japanese. :P

[IXIDAN]

yes mandarin is chinese from midland china but in hong kong thay speek cantonese

[Jashintoubara]

Yes. it is bad. Youd get thigns confused
