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 all levels 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. I’m happy to accept new students! Let’s have fun speaking Japanese together and make your journey even more exciting! 💫

The lesson was very helpful for practising speaking and conversation in Japanese. I also learned how to use the “を” particle more correctly. The teacher explained clearly and made the practice easy to follow. Recommended!

Today's lesson was enjoyable and very helpful. We practised speaking and reviewed grammar particles, and her presentation materials made everything easy to understand. I always feel more confident after her classes. Highly recommended!

Mayu-sensei was very nice and patient. It was easy to talk with her, and I felt comfortable during the lesson. I really enjoyed our conversation and learned a lot!

Mayu先生 explains everything very clearly and always creates a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere during the lessons. Even when I worry that I’m forgetting things, she is always there to comfort me, encourage me, and help me out. What I appreciate most is her patience and the way she encourages me to speak naturally without feeling nervous. She always makes learning and speaking Japanese fun, even when the words and grammar gets difficult. We talk about fun and interesting topics, and we laugh a lot. She is supportive, motivating, and overall an amazing teacher and friend. :) Thanks to her, I feel much more confident in both speaking and understanding Japanese. I can’t wait for the next lessons!

Mayu-san is a very kind and cheerful person. She makes it easy to try to communicate as a beginner. She also speaks good english. She also adapts well, she encourages you to have real conversations with her, and if it is too difficult, switches back to nice prepared lessons.
