About Me

こんにちは！I’m Yoshiko, a Japanese teacher living in Saudi Arabia and raising a son. Born and raised in Japan, I now connect Japanese and Gulf cultures in my daily life. As a language lover (I’ve studied six languages myself!), I understand both the excitement and challenges of speaking a new language.
I am friendly, patient, and genuinely curious about my students’ cultures and stories. I enjoy sharing Japanese and Saudi culture while learning about yours.
In my lessons, we talk about real-life topics — travel, food, culture differences, daily life in Saudi Arabia, and more. If you already know some basic Japanese and want to speak more smoothly and confidently, my lessons are perfect for you.Me as a Teacher
If you want to speak natural Japanese with clear feedback and steady progress, you’re in the right place. I offer relaxed conversation-based lessons called Japanese Café Talk ☕I have been teaching learners from many countries since 2021, both in English and Japanese.
Many of my students are long-term regular learners.
Before becoming a teacher, I worked in travel agencies and hotels, so we can also talk about sightseeing, travel planning, and cultural experiences in Japan.
In my lessons, I don’t just correct mistakes — I help you notice them and think about more natural ways to express yourself. I provide organized notes after each lesson so you can review anytime. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are mainly conversation-based and follow my Japanese Café Talk style ☕.
We can customize your lesson depending on your goal.
In each lesson:
• I give clear feedback
• We review key phrases
• You receive organized Google Doc notes
Lesson examples:Role play/ Reading & discussion/ Topic talk/My story
I help you understand your mistakes and practice improved expressions so you can use them confidently next time. My lessons are ideal for learners who want to improve speaking fluency in a relaxed but structured way. Many of my long-term students take lessons once a week for steady improvement.
I do not specialize in intensive exam preparation, business Japanese, or grammar courses.My teaching material

I had another fun lesson talking about Family with Yoshiko-Sensei. As always Yoshiko-Sensei listens patiently and provides detailed and useful feedback so I can feel myself really improving after each lesson. Looking forward to the next one!
