Hi! I’m living in Sweden and I enjoy MMA and watching South Park and a lot of Netflix series with my wife and. I'm currently working for my wife's cat company so I have a very flexible schedule. Language has been one of my biggest passions and I'm studying Swedish & German & a little bit of French now. I'm an easygoing, happy, relaxed person and totally in love with teaching specifically casual Japanese which I think is the most important type to learn. Book a lesson with me and let's get started! :)

I had lots of fun during my lesson! Teppei-Sensei made me excited to continue practicing and achieve my dream of talking to locals on my first trip to Japan. He’s able to adjust the casualness of the Japanese he teaches based on how well I already know Japanese people (not at all). I really appreciate that. Can’t wait for more lessons!

Teppei is a tremendous tutor and somebody who is comfortable with any level that you are at. He excels in making sure he feels like your teacher and a good friend. The hardest part of speaking a language you’re learning is to be comfortable making mistakes, but he encourages you do to so, just so you can practice the muscle memory of speaking what you’re learning. As soon as the lesson was over, it felt like it had just started and I already can’t wait to schedule my next one. If you want to practice any form of a conversation or even just small grammar points, his explanations and tips come across as very thorough and caring.

Teppei is a very personable and engaging teacher. He has already taught me some very useful things in just a couple lessons. I appreciate how he encourages me to figure things out on my own rather than just telling me how to say things! Highly recommend Teppei for anyone who wants to learn to communicate in a more close-knit and relational way.

My lessons with Teppei have been great! The conversations are always enjoyable as he takes a keen interest in all sorts of things and he gives you the space to try and express yourself in Japanese as you're learning. Teppei is great at correcting errors, doing so without judgement, and without intervening too often to derail a conversation, I've learn a lot of useful phrases and words during my lessons. His English level is very high so 99% of the time he can give you a translation off the bat if you're searching for a word you don't know. More importantly the lessons are very enjoyable and a great way to practice speaking, would highly recommend!

Teppei helped me to make my letter that I wanted to write in Japanese to my friend a lot better. He gave me more natural expressions, advice on what is best to be in and out of the letter, and was very supportive in the whole process. We always learn new and helpful vocabulary as well. I am looking forward to my Japanese improving in our next lesson as well!
