Let’s Chat in Japanese 😊 Intermediate+ | Friendly & Relaxed Since spring 2026, I have volunteered as a Japanese tutor at a community center and taught learners around JLPT N2 level. I enjoy supporting students and growing together.
▶︎ A multipassionate entrepreneur Japanese tutor I completed a four-year Japanese teacher training program at university, including two teaching practicums, and have hands-on volunteer teaching experience. But what truly sets me apart is my deep, personal connection to Japanese culture. I grew up in a traditional household with my grandparents, who were born in the Meiji era, though I didn't fully appreciate it until I moved abroad.

🇯🇵🏃♀️I'm a cheerleader of your goal🏃🇯🇵 I obtained my Japanese teaching qualification in April 2022. Since then, I've been working as an online Japanese teacher, offering lessons not only on italki but also classes for technical intern trainees and Kanji preparation for JLPT. As an English learner myself, I deeply understand the challenges of learning languages. I always try to tailor my lessons to suit each student's goals, whether they are beginners, planning to visit Japan as a tourist, or simply looking to have conversations like friends. 2022年4月に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。 それからはオンライン日本語教師として、italkiの他に技能実習生への授業やJLPTの漢字対策の授業もしています。 私も英語学習者なので、言語学習の難しさを痛感しています。 初めて日本語を勉強する人や日本に観光に来る予定のある人、また友達のように会話をしたい人など、それぞれの目的に合わせてレッスンをするようにしています。

That experience helps me make lessons effective and enjoyable. In class, I focus on real communication, helping you speak confidently and sound natural. I value trust and openness, so you can share your thoughts freely. 日本語を学ぶ楽しさと達成感を、一緒に感じましょう。 Let’s learn together and make every lesson meaningful! 🌸
"I’ll be your biggest cheerleader!" 📣 Hi! I’m Saki, a Japanese language coach and a lifelong learner. I live in Tokyo with my international family, and I've been fortunate enough to travel to over 15 countries. Many of these experiences opened my eyes up to the "language barrier" that we all often face. That’s exactly why I focus on creating a relaxed, supportive space—I want you to feel comfortable and, most importantly, stay excited about learning! I’ve always been a "study-lover." In my free time, I’ve pushed myself in many fields, such as becoming a certified National Tax Accountant, obtaining the Real Estate License (Takken), passing the first TOPIK I (Korean) exam, and practicing Omotosenke tea ceremony for over 10 years (intermediate license, Kazarimono). So, please trust me - I know how exhausting it can be to start learning something from scratch! I’m always learning new things and want to help YOU learn new things too, so I’ll be here cheering you on every step of the way. Let’s build your confidence together and celebrate every bit of your Japanese learning progress! みなさん、こんにちは!日本語(にほんご)コーチのSakiです。 私(わたし)は東京(とうきょう)でアメリカ人(じん)の家族(かぞく)と住(す)んでいます。15か国(こく)を旅行(りょこう)して、外国語(がいこくご)の大変(たいへん)さを知(し)りました。だから、クラスはいつもリラックスできる場所(ばしょ)にしています。 これまで、外国人(がいこくじん)経営者(けいえいしゃ)の方(かた)に、ビジネスの敬語(けいご)やマナーを教(おし)えてきました。プレゼンの指導(しどう)も得意(とくい)です。 文法(ぶんぽう)は「いろどり」を使(つか)いますが、上級者(じょうきゅうしゃ)には、目標(もくひょう)に合(あ)わせた特別(とくべつ)なレッスンを作(つく)ります。 全力(ぜんりょく)で応援(おうえん)します!一緒(いっしょ)に日本語(にほんご)の旅(たび)を楽(たの)しみましょう!

I’ll help turn your worries about learning a language into fun and confidence. Hi, I'm Taka. Take it easy—that's my philosophy. I love talking to people from all over the world. Every student teaches me something new. You're welcome here. Let's grow together. Right now, I'm based in Tohoku, learning about agriculture and enjoying ramen every week. But life wasn't always like this. I spent more than a decade in Tokyo working in fashion, probably selling your country's brands. That experience gave me deep people skills and the ability to understand what customers needed—skills I use in my teaching. In lessons, I will never rush you. I wait for you to speak and create space for you to say a lot. You talk more, make mistakes, correct yourself, and improve. That's how we solve the common problem—"I can understand, but I can't speak." **What I Teach** If you want academic Japanese study, my lessons may not fit. I recommend a teacher who specializes in that. My lessons are conversation-focused. I don't focus on "correct" or "wrong," but on whether expressions are natural for native speakers. Through free conversation, you'll learn living Japanese: natural rhythm, real expressions, and authentic communication skills. As my students say, the lessons are fun and full of laughter. In this atmosphere, you'll develop the ability to speak naturally and confidently with Japanese people—as an equal. That's the goal. Speaking well with anyone, anywhere.

I am currently studying two languages myself, so I understand well the efforts and the anxiety that come with learning Japanese.
