Beginner‑friendly Japanese lessons with clear English grammar support to help you speak confidently Hi, I’m Chihiro—a native Japanese speaker from Nagasaki, now based in Australia. With a background as a nurse, I genuinely enjoy supporting people as they learn and grow. I specialize in helping adult beginners start their Japanese journey with confidence. My lessons are friendly, clear, and always tailored to your needs—especially if you appreciate step-by-step explanations in English. Outside teaching, I love learning new languages, practicing yoga, traveling, and spending time with animals. I believe that steady progress leads to real results—“Practice makes perfect” is my motto! If you’re looking for a patient, encouraging teacher who understands the challenges of starting something new, I’d love to help you reach your Japanese goals. Looking forward to meeting you soon! またねー :)

Wherever you are in your Japanese journey, I'll get you to that 'wait, I understood that!' moment! ■ About Me Hi everyone, I’m Mayumi, but you can call me May! I’ve been teaching Japanese in Melbourne, Australia for 10+ years and am proud to be ranked in the top 1% of Japanese teachers on italki. I also have experience as an instructor for Japanese Teacher Training Courses. Before teaching, I worked for 8 years as an Executive Assistant at a major gaming company in Tokyo, so I can help with not only daily conversation, but also Business Japanese, polite expressions, and workplace manners for those planning to live, study, or work in Japan. I’m relaxed, friendly, and easy-going, and I love making your Japanese journey fun and rewarding. ■ Lesson Style I always take time to understand each student’s goals and learning style, then create lessons that match their needs. My classes are enjoyable, stress-free, and easy to follow, helping students feel confident to participate. My teaching style is mainly Japanese-only, adjusted to your level, but English explanations are also available when needed. ■ How I Can Help You I teach a wide range of Japanese skills, from beginner conversation to advanced speaking, Business Japanese, and practical communication. I speak clearly, provide visual materials (especially for beginners), and focus on speaking practice with natural correction to improve fluency and confidence. My goal is that after every lesson, you leave with something useful you can use in real life! I am looking forward to meeting you soon :)

Extensive experience teaching Japanese in English. Beginner to N3 (ゼロ初級～中級). Pair lesson available! こんにちは！ゆきです。 I was born and raised in Osaka, and now I’m based in Melbourne🦘🐨 Do you have these problems when it comes to studying Japanese? ---------------- "I want to practice speaking Japanese but I don’t feel confident expressing what I want to say correctly." "I'm a complete beginner and don’t know where to start." "I’m interested in taking JLPT but don’t want to study just using a textbook and would like to learn in a fun way while talking with a teacher." ---------------- Then please book a trial lesson with me. I will be your teacher—and your guide on your language learning journey :) One of my strengths as a Japanese teacher is that I can teach in English. Most of my students are from places like the United States, Europe, and Australia, and I use English whenever it helps students understand better. Also my husband is British, so we mainly communicate in English. I would like my students to feel relaxed in my lessons so that they can speak Japanese even more spontaneously. So I always make sure my lessons are fun and not too intense. However, if you’re highly motivated and would like a lot of homework, don’t worry—I can give you plenty 😆 I used to be very shy but I love teaching and enjoy communicating with my students through lessons. Teaching is my passion! I like💛 #travel #gaming #osaka #animals #vtuber #hololive #holostars

Working as an interpreter in Chinese, Japanese and English for the past six years, I've helped many famous companies, like Disney, Soft bank, Kodansha, Baidu, Bandai and so on, communicate smoothly and without cultural and linguistic barriers. During my free time, I also teach children, students and adults languages at different levels according to their needs. ------ 三ヶ国語の通訳として、６年間たくさんの大企業（ディズニー・ソフトバンク・講談社・バイドゥー・バンダイなど）に言語と文化バリアーを超えたコミュニケーションの架け橋となってがんばってきました。週末には、子供・学生・大人に外国語を教えています。皆さんレベルは違うのですが、必要に応じたクラスを準備しています。 ------ 作为一名三国语言的同声传译，在工作的六年期间，我帮助过很多公司（迪士尼、软银集团、讲谈社、百度、万代等）无障碍沟通。作为业余爱好，我也在教很多小朋友、学生和成年人不同的外语。虽然他们的水平层次不齐，但我会根据他们的需求进行教学。

All levels are welcome, from beginner to advanced, including TOPIK exam preparation. When I was in Korea, I taught Japanese to Korean students. After moving to Australia, I began teaching Korean to foreign learners and completed a Korean language teacher training program to support my students more effectively. I enjoy making Korean easy to understand and fun to learn. Even difficult grammar points can be explained clearly with the right approach, and I’m here to guide you step by step. Let’s work together to improve your Korean with confidence 😊
