My lessons & teaching style
I offer conversation-based lessons, so you can learn Japanese that you can use right away.
★ Lessons are conducted mainly in Japanese
(for beginner, of course I can use English)
★ You can ask questions in English anytime
★ Personalized feedback after every lesson
★ Lessons tailored to your goals
● Let’s use lots of Japanese!
● Don’t worry about mistakes — making them helps you learn!
● Even if you don’t understand something, I’ll explain clearly using gestures, pictures, and examples.
● Let’s decide the lesson content together based on what you want to achieve 🌸

Mika先生 is great! It was really helpful to use the textbook together, and she provided slides of her own as well. The lesson was really fun and enjoyable overall and I can already tell that the new vocabulary and grammar I learned will be easy to remember thanks to her lesson.

After four months studying together, I just completed Genki 1 — a milestone I'm so excited about! Mika-sensei is warm, patient, and incredibly easy to talk with, which made every lesson feel like a conversation with a friend. I'm deeply grateful, and I can't wait to continue to Genki 2 with her! 😊
みか先生と四ヶ月間勉強して、ついにGenki 1を終えることができました。とても嬉しいです!先生は優しくて、忍耐強くて、とても話しやすいので、毎回のレッスンが友達との会話のように感じられました。本当にありがとうございます。Genki 2も楽しみにしています!😊
