InterestsTechTravelScienceGamingHistory
Hello! I'm a Japanese teacher living in Fukuoka with my husband and our 9-year-old daughter. I lived in Melbourne, Australia, from 2009 to 2016, which enriched me with a diverse cultural background. I love learning and discussing a wide range of topics including cultures from Japan and other countries, technology, politics, investments, travel, and life. My hobbies include traveling, gaming, collecting miniatures, reading, and visiting shrines. I am excited about the opportunity to speak with many people through customized lessons tailored to each student's interests!

We have been taking lessons with Yuki-sensei for over 5 years. She is an amazing teacher, and extremely patient. She can help you with your Japanese if you are just starting, an advanced student, or anywhere in-between. She is always on time, prepared, and has never missed a lesson. If you are looking to level up your Japanese, I would highly recommend Yuki-sensei.

Yuki sensei is incredibly warm, relatable, and so easy to talk to about any topic. There’s never a dull class with her. She’s also always so well-prepared with teaching materials as well as conversation points. She’s never just flipping through a PDF/PPT. It’s always interactive and she uses other tools such as note cards and writing things on the whiteboard. Every class touches on grammar, vocabulary, speaking, and listening. She’s great at explaining when you don’t understand something. She truly cares about your progress, not to mention you as a person. She’s great, can’t recommend her enough!

I've been learning Japanese with Yuki Sensei for the past seven months, and I couldn't be happier with my progress! She is an incredibly patient and encouraging tutor who always tailors lessons to my needs. Whether it's grammar, conversation, or cultural insights, Yuki Sensei makes learning both fun and effective. She explains concepts clearly and provides plenty of practice to help reinforce what I've learned. Her friendly and supportive teaching style makes me feel comfortable speaking Japanese, even when I make mistakes. She always provides constructive feedback and motivates me to keep improving. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and engaging Japanese tutor, I highly recommend Yuki Sensei!

It's nice to actually start getting some understanding even beyond the sessions Yuki Sensei and I are doing together. Studying these N2 passages is spilling over into my everyday life. It makes me wonder why I waited so long to start doing more consistent italki lessons. Thank you for today's lesson!

Today was another crystal clear lesson studying N2 reading passages. I really appreciate Yuki-sensei's patience when I have to read aloud. I'm not always the fastest when reading kanji, but Yuki Sensei makes gentle, encouraging corrections when I need them. She also notes the things that I genuinely struggle with. Great lesson!
