Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

Patient & structured Japanese lessons for beginners | Speak with Japanese & connect with Japan 🌸 Hi, I’m Chihiro—a native Japanese speaker from Nagasaki, living in Australia since 2016. Before starting my teaching journey, I worked as a nurse for many years. Supporting people, listening with empathy, and making others feel comfortable have always been at the heart of what I do. I bring that same patient, caring approach into every single Japanese lesson. Who I Teach I specialize exclusively in teaching adult learners (beginners to lower-intermediate). My lessons are specifically designed for adults who: -Want to speak naturally with their Japanese family members, spouse, or in-laws. -love Japanese culture, history, or language and wish to learn thoroughly. -Appreciate a calm, respectful, and steady learning environment. -Value continuous, long-term progress over quick shortcuts. My Teaching Style & Lessons -Learning a new language as an adult takes time and courage. I aim to provide a safe, encouraging space where you can ask questions freely and learn without pressure. -Structured & Visual: I use clear visual slides and structured materials -Clear English Support: Whenever you feel stuck, I provide clear English explanations so you understand the "why" behind the grammar. A Little About Me Outside teaching, I love learning new languages and subjects, practicing yoga, spending time with animals, and traveling. I truly believe that consistent, quiet effort leads to wonderful results—“Practice makes perfect” is my daily motto! I look forward to meeting you in class!

オリジナル教材のスピーキング特訓で「話すための日本語」を教えます！中級以上の方には細かい文法解説やテーマに沿った会話練習でより自然な日本語を教えます！ I've been teaching more than 20 years now. As a language teacher, I started teaching Japanese in Brazil in 2014. But I also taught music, English and other materials for kids in Japan, so teaching was always my passion. I started teaching online in 2019, and now I teach every single day. I love to see the students' progress so every level is welcome in my lesson. Recently I started to learn Chinese and French online, too, in order to, of course, improve my language skills but also to understand my students' difficulties. I've been discovering a lot of things by learning languages as a student, and that's helping me to set my mind and to reflect to and to improve my own lesson.
