こんにちは 私の名前はミユです。 日本に住んでいます。 Hello! Nice to meet you, my name is Miyu. Do you want to have a fun time while learning Japanese? I am a native Japanese speaker living in Japan. みなさんの日本語の勉強を、私がお手伝いします。 My tutoring is focused on conversation skills. I would like to make you feel comfortable to listen and to have more confidence speaking Japanese.

I will talk with you in Japanese appr

I’ve taught English at a Japanese cram school for junior and senior high school students for 2 years, and worked in childcare where I encouraged young learners to use English in daily activities. I also volunteered to teach English at a local kindergarten. These experiences taught me how to be patient, adaptable, and creative in my teaching — skills that are just as important for adult learners as for children. Combined with my nursing background, I’m good at listening carefully and making students feel comfortable and supported. My goal is to create a relaxed space where you can speak freely, make mistakes, and learn natural, everyday Japanese without feeling pressured.

I’m passionate about helping others improve their Japanese. I can help you with reading, speaking, and listening in Japanese, and we can talk about topics that interest you. If you have specific questions, we can tackle them together.

🌸 Japanese accent is a combination of high and low pitches. 日本語のアクセントは、高低の組み合わせです🌸 ⁎ˇ◡ˇ⁎こんにちは☀️ I am so glad your journey brought you here. When I share Japanese, my passion lies in its sound. Did you know it is a rare pitch-accent language with no stress, and every inflection can simplify into just two piano notes—C and E? In our sessions, we ground ourselves in the four basic pitch patterns. I gently weave in nuances learners often ask about, such as vowel devoicing, nasal sounds, and the rhythm of prolonged sounds. Whether practicing conversation or textbooks, these musical elements are naturally integrated. When your accent aligns with these pitches, your Japanese naturally sounds fluid and resonant. When you speak with these natural rhythms, it creates a beautiful harmony; we feel connected through the heart of the language. This builds profound confidence and awakens the pure joy of learning, like a child discovering their mother tongue. My teaching is quietly guided by meditation at a temple in Thailand. Through this stillness, I treasure conveying the spiritual essence and inner heart of Japan. My room is always filled with the laughter of my students. Together, we look beyond grammar to explore daily lives, the seasons, and cultural contexts—embarking on a shared journey. I deeply cherish acoustic vibrations. I spend days recharging in nature, embracing the five elements, to share a calm, grounded presence with you. Let us explore Japanese together, creatively, as if painting art. I look forward to walking this path with you.
