Hi, my name is Yumi, it is so nice to meet you!
I am a native Japanese speaker, born and raised in Chiba (land of peanuts and home to Tokyo Disney Resorts!), Japan.
Let me introduce two of my favourite things:
The 1st one is traveling. I love exploring new places, getting lost, learning about history and cultures during a trip. There were over 15 countries I had visited before the pandemic and I have even lived in the UK for more than 4 years.
I've been living in the Netherlands since March 2023 and I enjoy studying Dutch!
My other favourite is...anime and manga! I also am a big fan of J-idol group.
My favourite works? Don’t get me started. You can find out more if you take a lesson!
Ich als Lehrkraft
I am a qualified Japanese teacher (420 hours of training at a Japanese government accredited training institution) to teach students of all levels, A1-C1. I have over 600hours of teaching experience online and 100hours offline for students from 20 different coutries.
When I was living in Japan in 2022, I collaborated with a Japanese public organisation to open Japanese language classes for expats, who are raising children in Tokyo.
I am also a former elementary school teacher, giving me extensive experience with children over the age of 7. Having received a Master’s degree in translation studies at the University College London in the UK, I can smoothly communicate in English.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I have two teaching specialties, in addition to teaching Japanese grammar and general conversation.
1. Japanese used in parenting and in a Japanese school setting.
2. Japanese used to enjoy your favourite manga/anime.
I enjoy teaching not only international parents living in Japan but also people who work at school industries there.
Some of my students I taught recently passed JLPT N2 and N3 so I am confident to support your exam preparations.
My students are provided with tailour-made material such as PPT, handouts and videos, depending on the learning contents.

Japanese language for parents who raise children in Japan
Yumi sensei is very encouraging and helpful! I always find our conversations to be really helpful, and I especially love how she writes vocabulary I don't know in the chat so that our conversation can flow smoothly! I'm feeling more and more confident every week with my Japanese :)

This is my second lesson with ゆみ先生. She walked through conversational patterns and useful phrases as well as helped walk me through JLPT N4 practice questions, which is going to help me substantially throughout my upcoming lessons as this is my first time learning with a Japanese tutor. I am looking forward to studying to prepare for next lesson! ありがとうございますゆみ先生!

今日のレッスンは楽しかった。ゆみ先生は私にお寺とお神社のマナーを教えてくれました。そして、日本の仏教とシンガポールの仏教の違うことの話をしました。今日はたくさんのことを勉強しました。ゆみ先生のレッスンをいつも面白いので、楽しみにしています。10回のレッスンをありがとうございました。次のレッスンを楽しみにしています!
Today's lesson was fun. Yumi-sensei taught me about mannerisms at Shinto shrines and Buddhism temples. We also talked about the difference between Buddhist temples in Japan and Singapore. I learnt a lot today. Lessons with Yumi-sensei are always interesting, so I always look forward to them. Thank you for the past ten lessons. Can't wait for our next class!

I am preparing to visit Japan in the future and want to be able to feel confident speaking in different situations, ゆみ先生 created a roleplaying scene (checking into a hotel) for me and we went over vocabulary , common phrases and then roleplayed the scene. It was extremely helpful for me! She explained many different types of situations and alternative ways the person might say different phrases, as well as what is polite or impolite to say.

ゆみ先生 had a pre-made presentation available during the lesson to help guide me through everything, and when I had trouble with something, she clearly explained. She set an idea for lessons going forward, and I am very much looking forward to them!
