Certified Japanese teacher with overseas teaching experience Hi, my name is Shunpei. I am a Japanese teacher living in Tokyo.I have always been interested in learning language and have experienced the difficulties and joys of language learning. That is why I decided to teach language—to help and share with other learners. When I have time, I listen to pop music and sing karaoke. I also play the piano and the kokyū (a traditional Japanese string instrument). I like going to the movie theater, mainly to see Disney and Marvel movies. Lately, I’ve gotten into flower arranging. こんにちは、しゅんぺいです。東京に住んでいる日本人です。音楽を聴いたりカラオケが趣味です。ピアノや胡弓を弾きます。映画館へ行ったり花も好きです。 I lived in Canada for three years and taught at Japanese language and culture schools for children in Vancouver and Montreal. I really enjoyed teaching there and this motivated me to complete my Japanese language teaching certification and pass the Japanese Language Education Proficiency Test. After getting the certificate, I started teaching Japanese. 以前3年間カナダに住んでいました。バンクーバーとモントリオールの学校で子供たちに日本語を教えました。それがとても楽しかったので日本語を教え始めました。 In my lessons, I use textbooks (e.g., “Genki, Quartet, Tobira” etc.) to teach in Japanese, just like in a Japanese language school in Japan. Whether you want to practice a conversation topic of your choice or want to study business Japanese, I would like to accommodate your requests. If it’s difficult to ask questions in Japanese, you can use English. 私のレッスンは、テキストを使って日本にある日本語学校のように日本語で授業をします。会話の練習をしたい方、ビジネスの日本語を勉強したい方など、リクエストにも答えます。もし、日本語で質問するのがむずかしければ、英語でも対応します。

I had my second conversation class (60 minutes each) with Shunpei San today and I really enjoy it. His calm way really encourages me to speak a lot and he gave me a detailed feedback list with phrases (how I said them and what would be better suggestions) afterwards with which I could work and adapt myself well :-) I will definitely book more classes. Thank you, Shunpei San 🙏🏻

Shunpei is very professional and always tailors the lessons to suit my level and knowledge. We move at a comfortable but steady pace, covering a mix of vocabulary, grammar explanations, and practical exercises. I’m encouraged to complete tasks independently but receive guidance when needed. The atmosphere is relaxed and supportive, which makes the lessons enjoyable and effective. I’ve learned a lot and always look forward to the next class.

I can really recommend Shunpei-先生. His lessons are well structured, and he is always encouraging and helpful. During and after each lesson, he gives me detailed feedback. After every lesson, I receive a PDF with my mistakes and some useful recommendations. At the beginning of the next lesson, we briefly go through the previous lesson again to see whether I am still making the same mistakes. After that, we start the conversation lesson with a topic of my choice. He asks me questions, discusses the topic with me, and helps me improve my Japanese.

This is my fourth lesson with Shunpei-sensei and I'm really enjoying it. Half of the time was spent on casual conversation, while the other half was vocabulary and grammar review. Thank you Shunpei-sensei. ありがとうございました。
