Natural Japanese & Relaxed Lessons 🌿 I’m here to support your Japanese journey ✈️ There are 2 reasons I became a Japanese teacher. First, when I was teaching Pilates to many international clients in Tokyo, I really enjoyed supporting them physically and mentally and connecting with people. I really love talking with people from all over the world! And second, as a writer, I find Japanese is a very unique and beautiful language. Especially, reading and writing Japanese is my passion, so I can help you find the most natural expressions that textbooks don't teach. My goal is to create a safe space where you can speak at ease. I'm very relaxed and always give positive feedback, so don't be afraid of making mistakes!

Let's learn Japanese with certified Japanese teacher I have studied in Canada, Australia, and the US. In Canada, I got a certificate of TESOL so I started teaching English online since 2020. Teaching language was much more fun than I thought. That is why I started teaching Japanese as well. I move everywhere in the world so teaching job using online fits my lifestyle. I studied international culture and communication in university and experienced it all over the world. Through my experiences and knowledge, I share the culture with my students and teach real Japanese not like a textbook. Since February 2022, I have taken Japanese language teacher training course and finished it November 2022.

Hi, I’m Ayano!! I’m a native Japanese speaker who loves teaching people from all over the world. I speak some English but we will mainly use Japanese in our lessons because that’s the best way to learn! I like my lessons to be fun because then you will be motivated to keep learning! I know how hard it is to learn another language because I’m learning English, so I will be very supportive. Maybe you want to learn Japanese to pass a test, speak to friends, get a job, or just for fun - whatever the reason, I will help you! !
