Hi! I'm Rina. I'm from Nagasaki, Japan. Now I live in Kyoto!
I have been teaching Japanese for four year. I did more than 5000 lessons so far! My students and I are always doing FUN lessons✨ I'm very friendly so if you are nervous to take online lessons, don't worry😉Me as a Teacher
The purpose of learning a language varies from person to person. My students and I talk about the lesson, and I'm always focused on making sure the lesson fits the purpose of the learning. Please feel free to let me know your requests. If you don't know what you want to do in our lesson, don't worry about that! Let's figure out our lesson style together!!😆My lessons & teaching style
For Conversation🗣
-Daily Conversation and talk about what you like
-Roll-play practice (Practice situations that may occur while traveling)
-Conversation roulette (Conversation topic is chosen from roulette then we talk about that)
※ If you come across any grammar or vocabulary you don’t understand, I will write it in the chat right away. I can also type words and sentences in Google Sheets as we talk.
For Grammar✏
-Japanese Gacha (We will make a sentence from words that appear randomly)
-Make a lot of example sentences using JLPT N5 to N1 grammar in Google Sheets.

I've been taking lessons with Rina-san for a while now, and I can't recommend her enough! She's incredibly kind and patient, which makes it easy to speak freely and make mistakes without feeling self-conscious. At the same time, she brings a lot of positive energy to each session, which keeps the lessons fun and engaging.
Each session is a nice balance between free conversation and structured book practice. This approach keeps things both natural and goal-oriented. Rina-san is also very organized — she takes notes during the lesson and shares them afterward, including any new vocabulary, grammar points, or useful phrases that came up, which makes reviewing super easy.
One of my favorite things is that our conversations often include everyday life topics, current events, and pop culture, which makes the practice feel very real and applicable to daily Japanese.
If you're looking for a tutor who is both professional and personable, Rina-san is a fantastic choice!
りなさん、いつもありがとうございます!

I've been taking classes with Rina-sensei for a year, and I can confidently say that she has everything it takes to make learning both effective and enjoyable. I truly admire the dedication she puts into every lesson — her classes are always engaging, informative, and fun. Book your first lesson with her — you won't be disappointed!

Rina sensei is a fun teacher! And unlike other teachers, she is very flexible and can adjust her lessons according to your needs. During our conversations, she provides me with opportunities to use what I have learned from previous classes (especially vocab) and the grammar I have studied outside of class. If you like teachers like this, I'd really reccomend her :)
