LWIF X EP34: I Interviewed my Japanese Language Teacher

Big thanks to my former Japanese language teacher for letting me interview her about all sorts of things, from the types of Japanese language schools, to what it’s like on the other side of the classroom, to the ambitions of the students. This interview was part of a series of interviews I did about learning Japanese (and language in general). If you haven’t, go ahead and watch part 1 and 2. Part 1 – Learning Japanese in Japan Part 2 – Teaching Japanese Online (and Learning English) Part 4 will be with a Japanese language learner that’s been back and forth between the U.S. and Japan a couple times. Part 5 will be with me, trying to figure out why I still suck at Japanese after 5 years of living in Japan. If you’ve been to a Japanese language school, what was your experience like?
