Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

Certified Japanese teacher who used to hang out with super famous J-POP musicians For beginners I use teaching materials and focus on the Genki textbook. For JLPT I use a JLPT textbook. I published a book about how to get high scores on exams using only short term study and it's best seller on Amazon so I certainly know plenty of tips. Let's study efficiently together! I know many Japanese learners have headaches for particles like the difference between 'が’ and 'は', 'に’and 'で’, 自動詞（はいる）and 他動詞（いれる）. As a professional teacher, I am willing to explain and practice with you. You can book my trial lesson directly.But ask me if you have a question. *Recently, I receive many inquiries without questions.Please kindly clarify your question when you message me.

Hello, I'm Saki! ● From Okayama, Japan ● Live in Brazil (my husband is Brazilian ) ● Mom ● Study and Speak English and Portuguese ● I understand how difficult to learn a language and adjust to a new culture because I'm a language learner too and I live abroad. Since 2014, I've taught at language schools and elementary school. I teach online now and my experience as Japanese teacher is over 8 years. I had lessons with many students who have various background and objectives. Lesson with every student makes me grow as teacher. I always try to make lesson more comfortable and productive for each student. I use Google document in any type of lessons. My students say this way is really useful to review.

Please check out Udemy's English course Amber & Nikki's English conversations and test prep! Motivating language students online can be a difficult task since you don't get to meet them in person. In general, I don't believe it's effective to assign numerous grammar lessons. My lesson plan for the beginner to intermediate learners focuses on conversational Japanese, practicing repetition of sentences describing their daily lives in present or past tenses. This would build their vocabulary and grammatical skills in the process. Through my lessons, students have demonstrated to be more fluent and motivated.

日本語学校で講師をしています。日本語文法を楽しく学ぶことができます。上級者にはMini Debateがお勧めです！他には大学院の研究計画書、志望理由書、教授へのメール添削などのご要望にお応えします。 I am teaching Japanese at a Japanese language school. So I supported more than 100 students so far. Since my previous job was as an engineer, this background is useful for students to know a business manner in Japan. Honestly, all my students say that my lesson is very enjoyable. I hope that you can enjoy learning and improving your Japanese in my lesson.

日常会話からJLPT準備まで◎経験豊富な先生と学びましょう🌸 I took the 420-hour training course to be a Japanese language teacher. After I got my certification, I started teaching Japanese privately. Now I'm teaching Japanese on SNS(Instagram/Twitter/TikTok) and private lessons.

Absolute beginners are welcome😊 Let's study Japanese language and the culture behind it together! Born in Tokyo and raised in Kanagawa, I now call Oregon home after moving from Japan a few years ago. As an intercultural communication specialist (BA & MA), I love bridging cultures through language—especially with beginners! When not teaching, I’m baking, binge-watching shows, sewing, or traveling. I love animals (I have 6 fur babies), and your pets are welcome to join lessons anytime to make learning relaxed and fun. Let’s explore Japanese language *and* culture together! 東京生まれ、神奈川育ち、数年前からオレゴン在住です。国際文化学専攻（学士・修士）の経験を活かし、初心者にも優しく日本語と文化を教えています。レッスン以外ではお菓子作りや旅行、Netflix鑑賞をしていることが多いです。動物が好きなので（6匹飼っています）、ペットと一緒にレッスンに参加するのも大歓迎です！リラックスした雰囲気で、一緒に楽しく学びましょう！ I started teaching Japanese in 2013 as a volunteer in my hometown, and completed all the requirements of the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in 2020. I have met people from more than 30 countries through this teaching career so far and I really enjoy teaching the language and the culture. 2013年に地元でボランティア講師として日本語を教え始め、2020年に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。日本語を教えることを通じて今まで30カ国以上の人に出会い、日本語と日本の文化を教えることをとても楽しんでいます。 Because italki is mainly for private lessons, I would like to focus on what and how the students want to study. I think studying Japanese in Japanese is a bit too hard sometimes (especially for beginners), so I would love to help students by using English if needed. If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to message me. For the cancellation policy, please check the lesson booking page.

Good lessons make you forget you're studying. こんにちは! I'm Aki. I help learners become more comfortable with Japanese by using it together in a relaxed, natural way. In my lessons, we focus on expressions that people actually use. You'll hear them, use them, and gradually become familiar with them through conversation. If you're a beginner, I'll prepare simple notes to help you follow along. After conversation lessons, I'll also send you useful words and expressions from our lesson so you can review them later or add them to your own flashcards. I've taught students from many countries and backgrounds, and I've learned that everyone learns differently. Rather than following a fixed method, I adjust each lesson to suit you, your level, and what you want to achieve. My goal is simple: to help you feel more at ease using Japanese in everyday situations and enjoy the process of getting there.
