i am not telling natives can't teach. is my english really that bad that you can't get the point? i am telling that unprepared natives are probably worse than prepared non-natives.
and you just admitted that you helped with pronunciation but in order to teach grammar you should get help.

First of all don't put words in my mouth. I never said a bum can teach you Japanese, but he can definitely speak better than 95% of all foreigners.
Now if that's how you want to play it, alright fine, I'd rather hang out with a bum than take classes from your boring typical Japanese teacher who only cares about stupid formalities and yawn-inducing kabuki tea-ceremonies that no regular Japanese person cares about.
Oh, and trust me, if you were to really hang out with a bum everyday for 3 months, I guarantee you your Japanese would be much better than sitting in a classroom for 2 hours a day. That's a guarantee.
