🏆 JLPT & Conversation | ~20 Years of Professional Experience | 99% Japanese — No English Needed! Hi Lessons taught 99% in Japanese — really, it is completely fine without English! Why not challenge yourself to speak strictly in Japanese for just 30 minutes a week? I am professionally trained to teach Japanese in Japanese, using illustrations, gestures, and simple words you already know. In just a few interactions, I can pinpoint the exact level of Japanese you understand. Can you say "tabemasu" (eat) or "ikimasu" (go)? That is more than enough. If you know basic verbs, we can communicate 99% in Japanese. With around 20 years of experience, I know how to guide you smoothly. What about the remaining 1%? If you get stuck, a translation app resolves it in seconds — problem solved, and class goes on! My English? Work in progress. 😅 Your Japanese? Same! That is why we make the best team — Japanese alone is all you need. Preparing for the JLPT? That is my specialty and most booked lesson (100+ conducted!). From N5 grammar to N1 reading strategies, let’s build a plan to pass. I also speak Korean! I passed TOPIK Level 6 twice (equivalent to JLPT N1). Surprisingly, my speaking is actually intermediate. Why did I pass? As an instructor, I know test techniques. 😮 But I also put in massive effort! 😁 I fully understand the frustration of learning a language and memorizing grammar rules. That is why I can support your goal to speak Japanese. I look forward to speaking Japanese with you in class! 한국인 여러분, 부담 없이 찾아와 주세요! 한국어 사용 여부는 원하시는 대로 결정합니다. 🤗 한자어의 공통점을 활용해 효율적으로 지도해 드립니다.

I’ve just finished 10 Free talk lessons with Momoko san. I should say that it was amazing, I enjoyed it very much. Momoko san is professional and the teaching is very effective. I’ve got a lot of energy and motivation to keep studying Japanese after our talks. The lessons were interesting, fun and very useful. While I was speaking I could see my mistakes right away on the screen, and it was very helpful. I feel that my Japanese has improved. My vocabulary has increased drastically. I am looking forward to getting ready to JLPT exam with her. I feel lucky that I’ve found such a wonderful teacher. I highly recommend her.

한국어를 잘 하셔서 일본어가 서툴러도 편하게 진행할 수 있었습니다. 제 상황에 맞게 수업 방향성에 대해 설명해주셔서 좋았습니다.

The trial lesson was great. We practiced grammar points I had asked before, the explanation was clear . I liked that the sentences, that we made, were personalized. It was interesting and very useful for me. I learned some new words and on top of new knowledge I've got good mood for the whole day. Wonderful experienced teacher that I can recommend to everyone.

Momoko-san is an excellent teacher! Her lessons are engaging and well-structured. Even though English explanations can be challenging for her, she handles it with grace, and it doesn't affects the quality of the lesson. In fact, learning directly in Japanese has been a great advantage for me. She creates a supportive environment that encourages learning and growth. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their Japanese skills!

Learning Japanese with Momoko-san over the past four months has been an incredible journey. Each lesson felt like more than just a class—it was a joyful, uplifting experience that brought so much positivity into my life. The lessons were always fun, engaging, and deeply personal, and I truly felt understood and supported every step of the way. Not only did my Japanese improve far beyond what I expected in such a short time, but I also found myself looking forward to each session as a highlight of my week. These lessons didn’t just teach me Japanese; they made me happier, more confident, and inspired to keep learning. I am deeply grateful for the dedication, kindness, and passion this teacher brought to every lesson. I can wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to learn Japanese—you won’t just gain knowledge, but also a truly enriching experience.
