Hello, I’m Kazumi😊
Let me introduce myself. I’m from Gifu Prefecture, Japan, and I currently live in Aichi Prefecture. I also lived in Tokyo for over 10 years!
I have more than 10 years of experience in singing and acting. I’ve won singing contests and appeared in Japanese dramas . I also have over 10 years of experience in the food service and sales industries ✨
People often describe me as cheerful, friendly, and easy to get along with😊
My hobbies are watching soccer and other sports, and enjoying delicious food.
Currently, I teach Japanese to adults aged 18 and over, covering the basics, conversation, and useful Japanese for travel ✨Let’s study Japanese together😊
Me as a Teacher
I currently teach beginner-level Japanese learners (N5 and N4).
I truly enjoy teaching and find it very rewarding! 😊
Since I’m also studying English myself, I understand both the fun and the challenges of learning a new language.
I always aim to create lessons that motivate each student, encourage steady progress, and provide a safe space to practice speaking with confidence. 🥰
私は現在日本語初級(N5・N4)の学習者に教えています。
教えることがとても楽しく好きです😊
私自身も英語を学んでいるので、言語を学ぶ楽しさや難しさを理解しています。 一人ひとりに寄り添い、学ぶ意欲が沸くようなレッスン、 そして安心して会話練習ができるように心がけています🥰
My lessons & teaching style

・I also teach using original slides with illustrations.
・You’ll have plenty of practice using grammar in real-life conversation phrases.
🌿 What Makes My Lessons Special 🌿
・A fun and relaxing lesson where you can learn.
・It’s possible to learn to speak Japanese even from zero.
・Clear and easy-to-understand explanations
・Easily review on Google Docs ✏️

Teacher’s pick
I have had a total of 3 lessons with Ms. Kazumi so far as well as others booked in advanced. Kazumi is professional, nice, easygoing, soft spoken and considerate. I enjoy her lessons that I hardly notice an hour has gone by. Lessons are done in Japanese, which I love because immersion is key, if I do have trouble she does communicate in English if I make any mistakes. I feel as I am getting a grasp on the Japanese language day by day along with the help of her instructions. I would highly recommend her if you are looking to start your Japanese language journey!
I look forward to completing all of Genki 1, and continuing my Japanese language journey with Ms. Kazumi with Genki 2.

I had my first Japanese lesson with Kazumi and it was a great experience. She was very friendly and patient. As it was my first time learning on iTalki and with a tutor, she made me feel comfortable and encouraged throughout the session.
I’m looking forward to continuing lessons with her!

I learned several grammatical points through lots of oral practices which were very helpful. I also learned some new words through the repetitive sentence practices.
Teacher was very helpful and nice, also gave students lots of positive feedback!
