Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

Beginner‑friendly Japanese lessons with clear English grammar support to help you speak confidently Hi, I’m Chihiro—a native Japanese speaker from Nagasaki, now living in Australia since 2016. I used to work as a nurse because I’ve always loved helping people. My hobbies are learning different languages and subjects, yoga, playing with animals, travelling. I thrive on making incremental progress toward my goals. My favourite phrase is “Practice makes perfect”—because it’s true! Nice to meet you, and I hope to see you soon in one of my lessons. またねー :) I’ve taught Japanese online for 3yrs, supporting learners of beginner levels. (Using Minna no Nihongo) My lessons use visual slides to explain practical Japanese in a clear and structured way. When needed, I also provide English explanations and examples to make everything easy to follow. Students often describe me as patient, encouraging, and easy to talk to. I personalize each lesson to match your pace and goals, so you can learn comfortably and confidently. Trial Lesson In our trial lesson, I will gently assess your Japanese level and understand what you want to achieve. I will also show you clear slides so you know exactly where we will begin. If you are complete beginner, you are start learning self-introduction.

Certified Japanese Teacher | Communicative classes in a relaxed environment I have taught Japanese to people of different backgrounds. I have a teaching certificate in Japanese. As I’m also a language learner, I have tried different approaches and have experienced difficulties and the joy of leaning languages. That have been helping me conduct customized classes for each person. アジアや中南米、ヨーロッパなど、様々なバックグラウンドを持つ人に日本語を教えた経験があります。 日本語教師の資格 (日本語教育能力検定)を持っています。 私自身も言語学習者の1人として、いろいろな学習方法を試したり、様々な困難や喜びを経験してきました。そのため、学習者の求めることを理解し、一人ひとりに合わせたレッスンが可能です。

4+ Years | 4,000+ Lessons | Most methods teach you to read Japanese. Mine teach you to live it. You've bought bunch of textbooks. You've done the Duolingo streaks. And yet — the moment a real conversation happens, your mind goes blank. I KNOW that feeling. And I KNOW exactly why it happens. こんにちは! I'm Kana, from Kyoto 🍵 — Japan's ancient capital. I studied English all through school in Japan, then went abroad to the US and Canada. And when someone said "How's it going" — I froze. Completely. Not a single word came out. All those years of study. Gone in a second. I still remember the heat in my face. The way I looked at the floor. The voice in my head that said: maybe I'm just not good at this. That moment changed how I teach forever. Most Japanese language programs — even professional ones — use the same method Japan used on me: grammar and rules first, speaking later. In my lessons, you will never read a sentence like "Watashi wa shinbun wo yomimasu." — "I read the newspaper." Nobody says that. Nobody needs that. Because here's what I know after 4 years of teaching: language only sticks when it's connected to something real — a moment you've lived, a conversation you actually need, a feeling you want to express. My lessons start with your real life — the exact situations you are walking toward. The Izakaya. The family dinner. The workplace. We practice the conversations that actually matter to you, until they stop feeling like Japanese and start feeling like you. 📚Book a trial lesson. Tell me the moment you're most nervous about.That's exactly where we start.

For Business Professionals - A specialist in teaching practical Japanese for business success. I previously taught over 1,500 students in Tokyo and helped many of them realize their potential through my original learning methods.

I’ve been deeply inspired by the passion of every learner I’ve met here—each one genuinely strives to become proficient in Japanese. I want to support that dedication by helping you transform how you study and approach language learning.

Rather than relying on rigid textbooks, I prioritise real communication and useful expressions you can apply immediately. ⭐ Lesson styles 🌱 Beginner-Friendly Japanese (A1) ☕ Conversation Practice (A2–C2) 🗣️ Conversation + Notes (A2–C2) ✍️ Write First, Then Talk (B1–C2) Prefer flexibility?
