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.

20+ Years of Teaching Experience, with Japanese Cultural background, Conversation, JLPT, Kids & more I have experience in teaching Japanese for more than 20 years, having started in Japan, then in Austria, UK, the Netherlands and in China. I have taught from small children to adults, in various institutes from language schools to High schools. I can explain the logic of grammars in a simple way so that you can understand it well. Moreover, I love communicating with people and love to see my students improve with their language skills as to talk more about themselves to me. I myself also love learning languages. I speak English and Dutch fluently. German, Chinese, Spanish and French are on the way. Thus, I don't forget the beginner's mind. Language is the tool of communication!

Karuna
Your cross-cultural specialist 🌊 Inconvenient truth: you don't always need a tutor. Much of Japanese is self-teachable. But I'm here for the curious, the ambitious, and the hardworking: for learners with questions that their resources can't answer, and for anyone who REALLY wants to put their active conversation skills to the test. Above all, our lessons together will be compassionate to both the cultural and linguistic standpoints of a non-native learner. I focus on facilitating your voice, and my goal with every student is enabling authentic self-expression. To that end, you can expect structured speaking challenges as well as more free-form conversations for upper-beginner+ students who so desire.

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^^

Nori
日本語教師有資格 中級専門 自然な日本語になるための修正とフィードバックを大切にしています。 私は、日本語教師の資格を持つ日本語講師です。 これまで中級レベルを中心に、長く日本語指導を行ってきました。 私のレッスンの特徴は、「話して終わり」ではなく、きちんと修正し、理解につなげることです。 学習者の日本語を聞きながら、 ・どこが不自然なのか ・なぜその表現になるのか を分かりやすく説明します。 中級になると、 「文法は知っているのに話せない」 「自分の日本語が正しいのか分からない」 と感じる方が多くなります。 私はそうした中級学習者の“伸び悩み”を一緒に整理し、次の段階へ進むことを大切にしています。 会話、読解、JLPT対策など、目的に合わせて柔軟に対応します。 落ち着いた雰囲気の中で、安心して間違えられるレッスンを心がけています。
