About Me
italki teacher since Feb 19, 2019InterestsTravelPets & AnimalsFood
I am a native Japanese teacher and translator living in Germany. I've also lived in the UK and France, and I enjoy discovering foreign cultures and their unique ways. I also appreciate Japanese traditions such as tea ceremony (茶道) and calligraphy (書道).
Teaching on italki since 2019, I love sharing my passion for languages with my students and accompanying them on their journey.
Language learning is a long (but rewarding!) process that can be hard to navigate on your own. I will help and guide you to the best of my abilities, drawing on my experience of learning languages completely different from my own, and teaching students from all over the world.Me as a Teacher
I offer Japanese lessons for all levels, using my original materials, designed to help you learn Japanese in a fun and engaging way, incorporating varied topics and activities.
Certified in 2005, I mix different techniques I find effective, based on precise bilingual instructions and comprehensible input.
I'll help you build on grammar, as well as your understanding of real-life Japanese language, society and culture, so that you will be able to express yourself with confidence and feel like yourself in that language.
☆Postgraduate Certificate in Teaching Japanese as a Foreign Language (IIEL)
☆Kanji Kentei Level 2
☆Teaching in English (C2 proficiency) and French (DALF C1) My lessons & teaching style
Complete beginners can start from learning the Japanese characters with me (Hiragana & Katakana). It will be a bilingual lesson, so don't worry if you don't speak a word of Japanese! I'll help you achieve fluency from level 0.
From pre-intermediate level, we'll focus on applying your knowledge to more spontaneous conversations. We might also revisit some grammar points you struggle with, or introduce some new ones. I encourage you to speak as much Japanese as possible, but when necessary I can guide you efficiently and clarify fine details in your language.
Book a sample lesson or write me a message and we will plan our lessons together. I'm looking forward to meeting you soon!My teaching material

It was really lovely meeting with Yukari! She did an excellent job in balancing pushing me to speak Japanese, while offering some help or suggestions in English. She quickly determined my level of understanding, and was able to find was to challenge me without being overly confusing. I look forward to our next lesson!

Yukari is a great teacher. She is very patient if you are, like me, a rather slow learner. She adjusts the lessons to your needs, is super friendly and very knowledgeable if you have questions about various subjects surrounding Japan etc. I'm always looking forward to my lessons, can very much recommend!
