Interactive & Relaxed Conversation with Personalized Feedback I provide lessons for upper-beginner to advanced learners, focusing on natural daily conversation. After each lesson, I give detailed feedback. I have experience working at the reception desk and handling medical office tasks at a Japanese hospital. Based on this experience, I focus on standard pronunciation and warm, polite keigo.

New Year, New You! Start speaking Japanese with confidence. I’ll be your guide. I have the ability to teach a wide range of Japanese skill sets (Click my class list for more details). I also have a career as an instructor for Japanese Teacher Training Course. I always take some time listening and making sure I understand students' needs and evaluate what is important to them first. And then I adjust to what they want to learn. I am passionate about creating a fun class that is stress free and easy to understand for students as it helps encourage your participation. I simply love meeting new people from all over the world and following a students journey and watching their Japanese skills keep improving. That is definitely the most rewarding aspect for me.

Improve Grammar, Pass JLPT N2–N5, and Practice Speaking! わたしは、5年ほど日本語を教えています。 ボランティアからスタートし、今は日本語学校で働いています。 わたしの学校には、大学や専門学校に進学したい人や、JLPTに合格したい人がたくさんいます。 そのため、進学指導やJLPTのサポートが得意です。 たとえば、作文の添削、面接練習、志望理由書のアドバイス、JLPTの勉強方法などを、一人ひとりに合わせて丁寧に教えています。 I have been teaching Japanese for about five years. I started as a volunteer and now work at a Japanese language school. Many of my students want to go on to university or vocational school in Japan, or pass the JLPT. So I specialize in supporting students with exam preparation and school applications. For example, I carefully help with writing corrections, interview practice, advice on personal statements, and how to study for the JLPT, tailored to each student’s needs.

I started teaching both languages professionally back in 2015, and since then, I’ve delivered over 13,000 lessons to students from all around the world—including China, Japan, South Korea, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Colombia, Venezuela, and France.

Let's talk a lot of Japanese that you know in a relaxing class! Do you freeze when talking to people, even if you're okay with AI? One student told me, "I'm scared to fail with humans." Today, he confidently initiates conversations in Japanese! As a student of Psychology and Education, I focus on how to release tension and let words flow naturally. My priority isn't just fixing grammar; it's creating a "Safe Space" where you can fail without fear. Using insights from educational theory, I provide a relaxing environment that maximizes your learning. I dedicate my full energy to every session. Expect a high-quality experience where you'll discover something new and finish feeling refreshed and lighter. Let’s turn your anxiety into confidence together!

Therefore you should relax and enjoy your conversation with me! Learning a different language can be very difficult. I know how it feels. I am an English learner myself. It's okay if you make a lot of mistakes! I aim to make the lessons so fun that you will naturally want to speak. Also, I will prioritize what you like and what you are interested in. This is because I believe that the most important thing in learning is the feeling of "love."
