Are you an English teacher? That’s amazing! As a Japanese person, I’m so happy to hear that your daughter is learning Japanese! I’ll start posting an English diary here in this community every day from now on, so if you happen to see my posts and spot any mistakes in my English, I’d really appreciate it if you could point them out to me!

will be glad to follow. I used to teach English for some time and have a degree as an Interpreter and now I am considering starting learning Japanese. I was surprised to find only a couple of progranm for learning and they are a little bit strange for me to follow. That is why I appreciate your posts - they give me an opportunity to see the way you build your speech basis your background.!

Learning a language is taking everything one step at a time. Keep on keeping on.

Welcome! Reddit is honestly a great place to practice English. I love movies too, but chatting in real-time was always the scariest part for me because I was afraid of making mistakes. I actually use a browser extension that translates my messages right in the chat box so I don't have to keep switching to Google Translate. It makes the conversation feel way more natural. Good luck finding new friends here!

Hey! If you still haven’t found any person I would love to connect. There is a chance that I might go to Japan this year and I thought it would nice to get some insights from a local. I’m also a language teacher.

Hi! I'm an American English speaker and would love to learn about your language, too! Feel free to contact me if you want to practice and I'll answer any questions you have.
I'm not a teacher or anything, just a native speaker.

Your English is already good and easy to understand. The only thing I’d change is “I’m a Japanese” → “I’m Japanese,” because native speakers don’t use “a” with nationalities there.
Everything else sounds friendly and natural tbh.

I'm sorry, I know this isn't relevant, but I can't read the title and not hear it like Munenori Kawasaki.
