Living in Fukui, Japan

I used to be a preschool teacher/Japanese language teacher at bilingual program in San Francisco for 6 years. After I came back to Japan, I became a private sushi chef to teach how to make sushi mainly and certified English speaking tour guide to introduce Japanese culture in a variety of aspects to a great number of tourists from all over the world. Teaching Japanese culture is my passion! Now I want to offer my skill and knowledge to people who want to learn Japanese language. My first priority is students' interests and purposes of taking lessons. I'm here to help you attain your goals no matter what they are. Let's have fun together! My first priority is students' interests and purposes of taking lessons. I'm here to help you attain your goals no matter what they are. I usually take students from intermediate to advanced level speakers since I'm a community tutor who don't have a structured series of courses with textbooks. For completely beginners and those who are younger than 18, I recommend to consider taking lessons with other professional tutors. My classes will also be good for those who are planning to visit Japan since I can provide lots of useful information of sightseeing spots, cultural perspectives and useful greetings/phrases/words as a traveler. 日本の文化や日本に来たときに役に立つあいさつやフレーズを教えることもできます。 I will be flexible in style of the lesson and it totally depends on students' interests. Focusing on conversation without any materials, writing hiragana, katakan...

Had a great first lesson with Mamoru! He's very nice and makes you feel comfortable from the beginning. He will correct your mistakes at the right timing and will also type for you some notes which are very useful for reviewing after the lesson. Moreover he can provide useful information about Japanese culture and places to visit. Highly recommended!

One of the most reliable teachers I've encountered on this site. He's disciplined but flexible, never forgets that the main objective is to teach you something that propels you a step or two further, even if it's in the form of review. Also, he's just real. You'll know when your Japanese isn't connecting the way you intended, and he's patient and experienced enough to correct your mistakes in a way you're less likely to repeat them. Highly recommend!
