Hi, I’m Mayu! I’m from Niigata Japan. I’ve traveled to over 20 countries and love learning about different cultures and languages.
In my lessons, I help beginners enjoy speaking Japanese, especially people who want to travel to Japan and actually use what they learn.
I teach 90% in Japanese, but don’t worry! I’ll speak slowly, use gestures, and adjust to your level, so you can relax and enjoy learning☺️
My goal is to help you feel confident using Japanese in real places, like cafes, train stations, or when meeting locals.
Let’s have fun speaking Japanese together and make your journey even more exciting! 💫

Me as a Teacher
Hello! I’m Mayu🌸
I’ve traveled to over 20 countries, and I love meeting people from around the world and sharing Japanese language and culture.
I especially enjoy helping beginners feel more confident speaking Japanese whether it’s for travel, daily life, or just for fun!
My lessons are relaxed and friendly. You don’t need to be perfect mistakes are welcome, and part of the process.
Let’s enjoy learning together at your own pace🫧
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are focused on real-life conversation.
I adjust to each student’s pace and interests, and I use a lot of simple words, gestures, and casual Japanese to help you feel comfortable.
We often do role plays and practice useful phrases for travel or everyday situations.
If needed, I can explain things in English or a little bit Spanish, but I try to stay in Japanese as much as possible so you get used to thinking in Japanese naturally☺️
My goal is to help you speak more, worry less, and enjoy the process!
