I won't criticize how you pronounce Japanese. I don't think other teachers do. We just give you advice. So, don't worry too much. Just, talk to Japanese people! And I agree that people who sent the recordings are very brave! Their Japanese will absolutely improve☺️

おもしろいと言ってもらえてよかったです。ありがとうございます〜　☺️

Thank you. Happy to hear that 😊✨

Yeah, right? Thank you!!☺️

Particles are difficult..., I think after a while, after you've read or listened to a lot of Japanese, you'll get to used to them. And as for は, there have been sound changes. はひふへほ were used be pronounced as pa, pi, pu, pe, po, then they became fa, fi,fu,fe, fo, then at the beginning of a word, the sounds became ha, hi, hu,he,ho, and other than the beginning of a word came to be pronounced as wa, wi, u, we, wo. And in 1946, a rule were made to match the sound and writing, and はひふへほ other than the beginning of a word are now written as わ, い, う, え,お. But they didn't change the particles は、へ、を to match the sound, わ、え、お. So, we still write these particles as they are, but the sounds are actually different. In short, there were sound changes, but the writing still remains.

Such a good answer, it's a shame it's hidden in a reply! Thanks for explaining :D

ありがとうございます！　みんなでがんばりましょうねー＾＾

Actually, when you say ネット in atamadaka, it means “net” as in “put up a tennis net”. ネット as an abbreviation of インターネット is heiban.

Hi, thank you for the comment! I didn’t get what you can’t write… you mean kanji like these, 朝, 漢, 爽, etc?🤔

I'm not sure if I got what you mean, but I feel that the Japanese pitch accent can't be shown with the pitch accent marker that I'm using now...

@@SpeakJapaneseNaturally I think he means the volume doesn't change in japanese, only the pitch. I noticed the student in the video stresses some words which sounds unatural, because in Japanese there's no variation in volume and duration of moras only variation in pitch.

Yes and no. I’m there but I’m not accepting new students, so my profile page doesn’t appear on italki. I’m sorry

No problem ☺️ Here's how to write hiragana. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bLWYm6hptrm4o6c.html The explanation might be quick, but I provided a link to a PDF for practicing writing hiragana in the description box of the video too. You'll know how to write because stroke orders are written too.
