Kyoko Rikitake's Home Page

[last update 14-Oct-2009]

My name is Kyoko Rikitake. I am an Internaut living in Toyonaka, Osaka, Japan. I am an associate professor for German language and culture at Osaka University. I am also teaching at the Graduate School of Language and Culture, Osaka University .

I give German classes for undergraduate students and teach foreign language didactics (especcialy "Deutsch als Fremdsprache") in the graduate school.

I am much interested in language teaching such as English as a Foreigen Language (ESL) or DaF (Deutsch als Fremdsprache).

I do love classic music. I like to play the piano as well as the violin and to sing German and Japanese songs.

My favourite composers are J.S. Bach, Beethoven, Schubert, Shumann and Brahms. I love all works of Brahms. Chopin's piano works are also my favourites. Mozart belongs to divine music for me.

If you are interested in classic music or foreign language teaching, just drop a line to malte@k2r.org

a I suffered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and was on a sick leave for three years but I finally returned to work in October 2009.

Thank you!
