🌿Practical Japanese for Learners Who Truly Want to Speak ✈️Travel Japanese🍁Canada-based Tutor Konnichiwa, my name is Aya. I currently work full-time as a Japanese language tutor and volunteer at a Japanese Cultural Center on Saturdays. For learners who want to speak Japanese confidently or study Japanese for travel, I offer practical and supportive lessons. Having started learning English as an adult myself, I understand the challenges of language learning. I use this experience to help students progress at their own pace in a relaxed environment. After graduating from university, I worked at a bank for five years before moving to Canada in 2021 for a new chapter in my life. I then worked as a cake decorator for 3 years, and I have long enjoyed baking as a hobby. I love traveling and nature, and I continue to enjoy active hobbies such as hiking, cycling, and ballet lessons. I have backpacked through many countries and always enjoy connecting with local people through culture and cuisine. I value life’s small joys, and I aim to create a warm and relaxed atmosphere in my lessons. Please feel free to share your goals, interests, and any questions you may have. Don’t worry if you feel nervous. I will support you at your own pace. 📢Notice of Vacation I’ll be off starting from June 11th(Thursday) to July 2nd(Thursday). Please let me know if you have any questions.

My competence is to support improving speaking and pronunciation to sound more natural. I am the best fit to learners who prefers more relaxed lessons with flexible lesson style (chit-chat, intensive practice, playful, etc.). I have been teaching English mainly to children for more than three years. I gradually gained Japanese teaching experience as a teaching assistant in university language courses and online private tutor. As I am also a language learner, I understand both great and tough aspects of learning experience. It's my pleasure to look for a more comfortable, fun and sustainable ways to continue learning journey together.

En Guatemala he enseñado saludos y palabras simples a mis amigos que están interesados en japonés. Recientemente, estoy dando el curso japonés en internet y disfruto de enseñar japonés. He aprendido inglés y español, por lo tanto he experimentado la diversión y el gozo, y también la dificultad de aprender un idioma, así que me gustaría ayudarlos a aprender mi idioma, japonés. No tenga miedo de aprender nuevo idioma!

Speak Japanese, Expand Your World :Practical & Real-Life Conversation Lessons These lessons are designed for learners who want to speak more naturally and use Japanese confidently in real-life situations. Through daily conversation practice, as well as discussions on current topics and familiar themes, you will develop practical communication skills you can truly use. I began learning English in my late 40s and have gradually improved from zero speaking ability to holding smooth conversations. Because of this experience, I understand the challenges and anxieties adult learners face, and I provide supportive, step-by-step guidance in a relaxed and sustainable way. Lessons focus on daily conversation, travel Japanese, and business communication, and can be flexibly adapted to your goals and level. I also offer pronunciation training, free talk, and hobby-based conversations to personalize your learning experience. The goal is not just to be understood, but to speak naturally and confidently. Let’s enjoy the process and steadily improve your Japanese together.

Friendly &Flexible. にほんごをまなぼう、にほんごでまなぼう。 During my time in America, as a Teaching Assistant, I was teaching ‘history of cinema’ and practical ‘basic filmmaking ‘ to American college students. Also, I joined activities to teach Japanese culture and language to people. Since my returning to Japan, I have had many opportunities to interact with many local people from all over the world when I visit abroad for my job of movie making. Throughout these experiences, I have been feeling keenly about “the joy and difficulty of verbal communication. With this kind of experience, I can support and lead each student to learn Japanese language.

REAL JAPANESE WITH ME!! Officially Certified & Registered Teacher✨ Teaching over 300 learners😊 Learning a foreign language can be very difficult. Learning a language becomes more enjoyable when you are into the country and its culture. I myself have had the experience of learning languages, starting with English and then learning other languages as well. When you learn a new language, it is exciting to receive the feeling that your world is gradually expanding inside you! Having lived in Malaysia, I have a good understanding of different cultures and multinational atmospheres. 外国語の学習はとても大変ですよね。 言語の勉強はその国や文化を好きになることでより楽しくなります。 私自身、これまで英語の勉強、他の言語も学習してきた経験があります。 新しい言葉を学んでいくと、自分の中の世界がだんだんと広がっていく感覚がありワクワクしますよね! マレーシアに住んでいたこともあって、異文化・多国籍の雰囲気に理解があります。 僕と一緒に日本語の勉強を頑張りましょうね!!!
