Hi there! I’m Niki, I am a native speaker of both English and Japanese, I have a very international background, currently living in England, and I would love to teach you some Japanese. It was my experiences of teaching English to Japanese kids, analysing the differences between English and Japanese for and with them, that sparked my interest in the art of language learning, which is more than just about knowing grammar rules and how to write. I have a number of lessons available, suited for people of different levels. Please refer to the different lessons available, there are different kinds! But also, the best way to find out if my teaching style is suited to your learning is by having a chat and a taster through taking my trial lesson! I have specific lessons for different goals that you may have in learning Japanese. もう少し高めのレベルの日本語を目指している方とは、もう少し深掘りできるような課題について一緒に会話をします。フレンドリーな会話を通して、流暢な日本語を目指しましょう。

Niki is a brilliant tutor. She is receptive and adaptable to the situation, able to tailor the experience to my knowledge level on the fly. She is able to create a very comfortable atmosphere, where missing the mark doesn't feel like failure. Being native in both English and Japanese means she is able to explain concepts in a natural and understandable way. While Niki would make a great tutor for someone at any level, I think that in particular I would recommend her to people that are feeling a little uncertain about their first steps into speaking, or other areas, to please try a lesson.

Niki is an exceptionally good tutor that will go above and beyond your expectations. She has a gift for making even the most complex concepts feel intuitive, and she really makes you feel comfortable while challenging you! Being native with both Japanese and English gives her a unique strength not many other tutors have. If you're looking for a tutor that really cares about your progress, look no further than Niki!

First lesson with Niki was great! She is very knowledgeable about the nuances of Japanese grammar and how it compares to English. She was well prepared, spoke well and was accommodating to my situation. Looking forward to the next lesson! ありがとうございます!
