Hi there! I’m Taka, a native Japanese tutor.
Would you like to learn Japanese in a fun and relaxed environment?
・I want to speak Japanese when I travel to Japan!
・I want to build a solid foundation in Japanese from the basics!
・I want to understand anime and manga in the original Japanese!
If that sounds like you, I’d love to help!
I’ve had experience teaching Japanese using English, which helped me learn how to support beginners in a simple way. If you want to learn Japanese in a fun, relaxed and friendly way, I'm your guy!
Note: Adults only. I do not teach children or teenagers.Me as a Teacher
I love talking with people from different countries!
I lived in Australia for two years, so I have a good understanding of different cultures as well.
A little about me:
I love:
• Traveling (I’ve been to the U.S., Australia, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, and more!)
• Anime & Manga (Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, NARUTO, etc.)
• Games (Zelda, Mario, Pokémon, Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, etc.)
• Music (J-pop, rock, punk, city pop, and more)
• Watching sports (especially baseball, tennis)
And much more!My lessons & teaching style
・For beginners
I speak Japanese slowly and have simple conversations or use the textbook GENKI to build a strong foundation step by step.
・For intermediate learners and above
I’ll check your level first, and then we can have free conversations or continue with GENKI-based lessons.5.0

Taka is a great teacher! He’s very friendly and easy to talk to. He takes the time to correct my Japanese in a kind way, explains how to say things naturally, and writes them down for me. His lessons are both fun and very helpful for improving my speaking skills.

Taka-san was great to chat with for the trial lesson I completed and I had a super fun time! He met me where I was at with my speaking level, asked about my goals, and we came up with a general plan for future lessons! Very much recommend him for anyone curious about starting lessons!

Taka-sensei does such a good job of meeting me where I'm at with lessons and helping me along with vocab when I get stuck with speaking practice! He does a great job of making lessons fun and I'd highly recommend anyone take up learning Japanese with him!
