Japanese package lessons currently up to 35% off! I loveアニメAnime,漫画Manga and かわいいkawaii!( ´∀`)bグッ! I've studied abroad in Oxford for 9 months and I've got the B2 level certificate at the school. My husband is British so I speak English everyday. I'm sure my English will improve soon. When I was in England as a student, I felt lots of people are interested in Japanese. They asked me pronunciations, some Japanese words, culture and so on. I was so glad to hear that. Also, my husband and their friends are keen on Japanese Anime. My hobbies are watching Anime and reading Manga so I have lots of opportunity to teach Japanese things in Japanese. Thanks to such great encounters, I decided to become a tutor.

back in Japan! excited to make new friends through lesson! You can be self taught, but you will realize how a language in actual communication can be totally different than in textbooks. (maybe anime too😅) If you'd like to master a language and be comfortable with communicating in another language, you can't escape from the steps of learning and understanding the culture. It helps you a lot for better communication for sure! Although you can easily collect information on the internet, you wouldn't know if that's true or not until you actually experience by talking to local people or visiting the country. And i am here to help you improve your Japanese and answer your questions/curiosity about Japan! I can possibly be your tour guide in Japan!

■The Basics─『いろどり』─You can learn practical conversations in real-life Japanese situations. I completed a 420-hour Japanese teacher training program in 2014, and since then I have gained extensive experience teaching at language schools in Mexico and Japan, as well as online. In recent years, more people have started learning Japanese for fun, and as someone who used to be a “Spanish-language nerd,” I completely understand that feeling. Studying English grammar has also helped me understand the challenges of Japanese deeply. I love sharing my passion for language learning and supporting my students’ progress. I’ve met many wonderful learners on italki, and those experiences make me believe we can create lessons truly tailored to your needs as we get to know each other over time.

I got my Japanese teaching license in June 2021. Because I have already finished the 420 hours Advanced Skills of Teaching Japanese Language Course. Additionally, I have already kept teaching Japanese online since a couple of years ago. I also have taught students who learn social welfare services as I am a social worker for 15 years. Our lesson will require us to speak in Japanese as much as possible. If you need to ask any questions in English, it's ok. But you should try it in our lesson! I really would like to help you improve your Japanese skills. Always welcome your request about our lesson!

“Each student is unique — I teach with heart, patience, and trust.” As a Japanese teacher, I believe every student deserves lessons that feel personal and meaningful. For over two years, I’ve supported learners from many backgrounds, helping them express themselves naturally in Japanese. I teach with empathy and flexibility, adapting to each learner’s pace and goals. As a passionate language learner myself, I understand the challenges and joys of studying. That experience helps me make lessons effective and enjoyable. In class, I focus on real communication, helping you speak confidently and sound natural. I value trust and openness, so you can share your thoughts freely. 日本語を学ぶ楽しさと達成感を、一緒に感じましょう。 Let’s learn together and make every lesson meaningful! 🌸

大人のための知的な対話を。ニュースや文化、人生を深く語り合いましょう。Deep Dive into News, Culture & Life. As someone who has navigated panic disorder, I truly understand the anxiety and tension that can come with learning. I use visual aids like screen sharing and chat messages to help you express yourself without pressure. 私のレッスンは、教科書を使って文法を勉強する「塾」のようなスタイルではありません。日本語を使って、もっと自由に、もっと深くコミュニケーションをしたい大人のための場所です。 私自身、過去にパニック障害を経験し、強い不安や緊張と向き合ってきた時期があります。ですから、レッスン前の不安な気持ちや、思うように言葉が出てこないもどかしさは痛いほどよくわかります。 「うまく話そう」と思わなくて大丈夫です。頭の中がまとまらない時は、チャットボックスや画面共有を使って視覚的にサポートしますので、あなたのペースでゆっくりと言葉を紡いでいきましょう。 【得意なこと・好きなこと】 時事問題でディスカッション:最近のニュースについて、あなたの意見を聞かせてください。正解はありません。「なぜそう思うのか」を話し合い、お互いの知的好奇心(ちてきこうきしん)を満たしましょう。 大人のフリートーク:仕事の愚痴(ぐち)や、恋愛の話、好きなアニメについてなど、プライベートな話題も大歓迎です。私はとてもオープンな性格なので、希望があれば私の話もさせていただきます。
