Chieko Osugi
Enjoy speaking Japanese! Japanese is FUN!! (See Youtube @chiekoosugi233) I've got many years of experience. My first experience was in the Philippines. I was a volunteer sent by the Japanese government and taught at the Foreign Service Institute of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My students at that time were all adults mainly government officials. After that I went to New Zealand to continue teaching Japanese at a university and also secondary schools. Upon returning to Japan, I taught English to the young Japanese volunteers who were going out to some developing countries for their tasks. Aside from the many years of teaching experiences, my knowledge of multiple languages helps understand the students' psychology and I can help them effectively.

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.

Risa
🌸Certified Native Teacher | English Support Available🌸 My lessons are designed to be a "safe space" where you can make as many mistakes as you need to—that’s how we improve day by day! Learning languages truly changed my life. It became a lifelong hobby, gave me the opportunity to live abroad, and allowed me to connect with amazing people worldwide. Having passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test, I started teaching with the hope that Japanese can open similar doors for you. I personally understand both the excitement of learning and the frustration of not being able to express your thoughts clearly. My goal is to support you so you can stay motivated and enjoy your Japanese journey every step of the way!

Moto Happy Tutor
Structure is 99%, but It’s Context That Makes It Real—Miss the Context, Miss the Meaning! I specialize in helping ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS to intermediate learners who feel STUCK or don’t know WHERE TO START. My lessons are LOGICAL and STRUCTURED, breaking Japanese into manageable pieces to build your confidence step by step. I know the struggles—particles, conjugations, て forms—but I’ll show you not just “what” to use, but “WHY” it works. My focus is on real-world applications: mastering casual conversations, expressing opinions, and understanding cultural nuances. Every mistake is a stepping stone. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and always tailored to your unique learning style.

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 😊

As a language learner, I totally understand how the student feel when learning a language. The reason why I became a teacher is because I wanted to help those people who struggle learning Japanese. I believe that the way to study language is not only one way. Each of us have to find our best way. I'm hoping to assist the student to be able to find the most effective and fun way of learning Japanese.

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^^
