🌸You can learn from zero!🌸¡Vamos a empezar desde cero!🌸Давай начнём с нуля!🌸
Japanese is not difficult when you learn it the right way. I’ll help you start speaking from your very first lesson.
No textbook needed. I provide original materials in your language(N4,5), so you can understand clearly from the beginning.
I learned many languages online, so I know the difficulties language learners face and how to overcome them step by step.

Rena is super friendly and adjusts her teaching style and speed to your comprehension level. Has custom Quizlet's premade, and has a white board to show you the differences in hiragana, katakana, and kanji. If you speak English, Spanish, Japanese, or Russian, she can help you learn an alternative language. My experience with Rena has been nothing short of spectacular.

Ms Rena is the most understanding, patient, and even more importantly, she is a very empathetic teacher. My daughter has been having lesson with her for over a year, Ms Rena has ALWAYS been professional yet supportive. My daughter speaks fluent Japanese now, thanks to Ms Rena!

Right off the bat Rena got to teaching and I learned more in my 30 minute trial lesson that I would have if I had studied for hours on my own! She is encouraging and kind and I look forward to taking more lessons with her!

Rena is very helpful and goes over anything you need more assistance with. She explains with care and if you have questions she ensures to help you understand and gives great review.
