Yasuka
Absolute beginner? Planning a trip to Japan? Try lessons that finally make things “click”! 💡 Why choose me? I specialize in explaining Japanese grammar in clear, natural English. I know where English speakers often get stuck—and how to help you move forward quickly. Many of my students say they finally understood things that other teachers couldn’t explain. Some tell me, “I’ve been confused for months, but now it makes sense in one lesson!” My lessons are priced higher than many others on italki, but they’re designed to be efficient and results-driven. If you want to save time and make fast, meaningful progress, my teaching style may be exactly what you’re looking for.

私は教えない。I don't teach you. I'm a guide, trainer, and counselor of all the autodidacts. I am no longer a teacher who only teaches. I am a guide, a trainer, and a counselor of all the autodidacts. I try to get the most out of my learners and give them back what they need. Also, I don't think it is enough to just present the learning items. I want to support them in the process of learning as well. It is my greatest pleasure to see the results of our work together. 教えるだけの先生は卒業しました。私は独学者のガイドであり、トレーナーでもあり、カウンセラーでもあります。学習者から最大限引き出し、必要なものを加えて返していくよう心がけています。また、学習項目を提示するだけでは十分だと思いません。覚える過程も含めてサポートしていきたいです。そしてその成果を、双方で確認することを至上の喜びと感じています。

Improve Grammar, Pass JLPT N2–N5, and Practice Speaking! わたしは、5年ほど日本語を教えています。 ボランティアからスタートし、今は日本語学校で働いています。 わたしの学校には、大学や専門学校に進学したい人や、JLPTに合格したい人がたくさんいます。 そのため、進学指導やJLPTのサポートが得意です。 たとえば、作文の添削、面接練習、志望理由書のアドバイス、JLPTの勉強方法などを、一人ひとりに合わせて丁寧に教えています。 I have been teaching Japanese for about five years. I started as a volunteer and now work at a Japanese language school. Many of my students want to go on to university or vocational school in Japan, or pass the JLPT. So I specialize in supporting students with exam preparation and school applications. For example, I carefully help with writing corrections, interview practice, advice on personal statements, and how to study for the JLPT, tailored to each student’s needs.

I work as a professional narrator! 나레이터로 일하고 있습니다! ナレーターや記者として働いていますので、きれいな発音(はつおん)と正(ただ)しいイントネーション、より相手(あいて)に伝(つた)わりやすく、魅力的(みりょくてき)な日本語の文章(ぶんしょう)を学(まな)びたい方(かた)はぜひ私と勉強しましょう! 私の授業はすべて日本語で行(おこな)いますので、より早(はや)く日本語に慣(な)れることができると思います☆ ―――――――――― I work as a narrator, so if you want to learn correct pronunciation and intonation, let's study with me! I also work as a writer, so I think I can teach you more attractive and easy to understand Japanese. I'll do all the classes in Japanese, so I think you will be able to get used to Japanese faster☆ ―――――――――― 저는 기자나 내레이터로서도 일을 하고 있기 때문에 더욱더 정확한 발음과 억양, 더욱더 전달하기 쉽고 매력적인 일본어를 가르쳐 줄 수 있다고 생각해요! 제 수업은 모두 일본어로 진행하기 때문에, 더 빨리 일본어에 익숙해질 수 있을거에요☆ 하지만 간단한 한국어는 가능하기 때문에, 초보자도 편하게 신청해 주세요^^

Let's enjoy practicing Japanese together! 🌸 私(わたし)のレッスンでは 日本語(にほんご)を話(はな)すのが不安(ふあん)な方(かた)も大丈夫! 興味(きょうみ)のある話題(わだい)からゆっくり会話(かいわ)を練習(れんしゅう)して、「自然(しぜん)に話(はな)せるコツ」を身(み)につけましょう。 分(わ)からない単語(たんご)があっても、すぐチャットで 共有(きょうゆう)&正(ただ)しい言(い)い換(か)えも教えます。 「間違(まちが)えても大丈夫(だいじょうぶ)!」 安心(あんしん)して話(はな)せる時間(じかん)を作(つく)ります。 As someone learning English myself, I know how challenging it can be to speak and express your feelings in another language. That’s why I always focus on creating a comfortable, friendly environment where you can relax, make mistakes, and learn naturally. 🌸Don’t worry if you make mistakes! 🌸I will type all your mistakes and send you detailed feedback. ※16歳未満(みまん)のレッスンはお断(ことわ)りしています。 ( I do not tutor students who are under the age of 16. )
