𓀠 Hello and welcome.
After our lessons, Japanese becomes a voice that naturally belongs to you.
My name is Anri. I teach with care for technical accuracy and a calm presence. Lessons cover Pitch accent, grammar, vocabulary, and subtle elements such as long vowels, nasal sounds, and devoiced vowels. Cultural and spiritual nuances — etiquette, mindfulness, and subtle respect — are gently woven in. Learners develop clarity, presence, and a sense of language as living expression. Each session forms a quiet circle of attention, helping your voice resonate naturally with the rhythm of Japanese. 𓅯 2026.01.08.
Me as a Teacher
I guide learners to experience Japanese pitch accent as a living rhythm. Follow-ups in your native language support understanding and retention. Beyond technical skill, I emphasize etiquette, mindfulness, and subtle expressions of respect. Each session balances structure and freedom, creating a warm, relaxed space where learners can practice, explore, and reflect. I like to think of myself as a teacher who is a little human, a little quirky, and easy to relate to. With patience and gentle guidance, learners build clarity, confidence, and an authentic voice while deepening their understanding of Japanese life and thought. 𓅗 2026.01.08 My lessons & teaching style
Let us gently peek into this luminous space. Passion, on the eve of a journey to Japan, explores anime worlds together, describing each moment aloud and discovering joy in every phrase. Heart, looking toward life in Japan, tunes into Japanese high-low pitch accent and rhythm, gaining clarity, confidence, and a quiet glow noticed by those close. Presence, anticipating a return to Japan, delves beyond the textbook, exploring subtle high-low nuances and letting each expression bloom fully. Different paths, different rhythms, yet all meet in a luminous universe where every voice, heartbeat, and presence is cherished—with blessings for each and every journey.

あんり先生 and I have been working together for about a year now. In our lessons we talk about various topics from our daily lives, sometimes going on outdoor walks in Japan or working from manga, textbooks and videos. It is always a super fun part of my day and the difference in my Japanese skills are quite tangible.

Thank you Anri sensei for another great lesson today! We’ve had countless interesting classes and today, sensei had some innovative idea that by watching a video together, she simultaneously went through some useful phrases that I was never aware of by watching dramas or Japanese TV shows. It’s a great method that I would recommend to everyone who is keen to improve their daily usage of Japanese phrases.
あんり先生、今日もありがとうございました。
先生の授業はいつも面白いですが今日のレッスンは一緒にビデオを見ながらいろんな日本語の言葉を教えていただきました。日常にも使えるし、斬新的な方法を皆さんにおすすめします。

Anri is an engaging conversation partner and a very knowledgeable teacher. We keep our conversations loosely structured, often prompted by something that we did, saw, or read in our personal lives. This format lets us ask questions that introduce me to new vocabulary and information about Japanese culture in every lesson. Anri lets me stop and ask about unfamiliar words or grammar. She often catches and corrects mistakes I make in grammar, pitch accent pronunciation, and natural-sounding speech. She also records our conversations so that I can review it. I have felt my comprehension and confidence in spoken Japanese and my knowledge of Japan gradually increase through Anri's lessons.
