Hi, I'm Ai. I’m originally from Japan and currently living in Malaysia. I’ve passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test and am currently taking a 420-hour Japanese teacher training course. I’ve been teaching Japanese as a private tutor since 2024. Before teaching, I worked in sales and marketing at a travel company and an IT company in Tokyo for about 10 years. I love traveling and have visited all 47 prefectures in Japan and over 30 countries ✈️ I also enjoy hiking, cooking, and exploring cafes. I’d love to hear about your interests too. 📚️ About My Lessons ・Japanese for complete beginners to pre-intermediate learners ・Conversation practice and building speaking confidence ・Japanese for travel and getting ready for Japan ・JLPT support (N5–N3) ・Personalized lessons with English support ・Structured lessons using textbooks such as Genki and Quartet If you’re studying on your own, preparing for Japan, or simply want more opportunities to speak Japanese, you’re very welcome 🇯🇵 I’d be happy to support your learning and help you enjoy using Japanese with confidence. Feel free to book a trial lesson. I’m looking forward to meeting you!

I really enjoyed my first lesson with あい先生! She was very organised and used a great mixture of free conversation, the textbook and her own content to make the lesson fun and informative! I’m looking forward to continuing to study with her!
