I’m Ruko, a Japanese teacher from Japan. I have over 25 years of teaching experience, and I specialize in helping beginners feel comfortable and confident from their very first lesson. My lessons are clear, practical, and enjoyable, and I always adjust them to each student’s level and goals. I also support intermediate and advanced learners who want to improve their Japanese more naturally. If you’re looking for a friendly and experienced teacher, I’d be happy to support your learning journey. I look forward to meeting you in my class. .I discovered the joy of the Japanese language while living in Sydney. After returning to Japan, I began my teaching career at a Japanese language school, where I taught group classes in daily conversation, business Japanese, and JLPT preparation. I later taught at an American school on a U.S. military base, gaining experience working with learners from diverse cultural backgrounds. For the past 20 years, I have worked as a freelance Japanese teacher, providing private lessons to business professionals and traveling to various companies to support their communication needs. With over 25 years of teaching experience, I focus on helping students communicate naturally and confidently in real Even for beginner-level students, I try to use as much Japanese as possible, adjusting my language to match each student’s level. I have experience using a wide variety of textbooks, so I can carefully tailor lessons based on the materials you prefer...

My first year of Japanese study comes to an end. Thanks to Ruko sensei's help, I have a much better grasp of Japanese grammar than I could dream of. I truly appreciate our lessons. We'll continue after Christmas holiday.

I really love lessons with Ruko-sensei, both the conversation and digging into the Japanese grammar's many patterns. Osusume desu :-)
