Mitch
Japanese Teacher (MA TESOL, U.S.) • 10+ years online • upbeat, positive lessons Students often describe me as cheerful, positive, and easy to talk to. I believe learning should feel encouraging and achievable. On italki I teach in English, Spanish, German, Chinese, or entirely in Japanese, adjusting the mix to your pace, level, and goals. If something doesn’t click, I’m patient and flexible: I’ll explain again, try fresh examples, rephrase, or switch methods. I’m good at motivating learners—building on strengths, challenging just enough, and celebrating wins. I’ve also led Japanese classes at a U.S. university. One small request: if life derails a lesson, a quick note afterward keeps me from worrying (no alien abductions, I hope!). Let’s learn together!

Yako Kimura
I've taught theatre and performing arts at the Japanese Culture Foundation in Sendai for over 12 years. My experience in supporting professionals and non-professionals helps me to teach Japanese to non-native speakers. I understand people want to communicate to explain themselves and to share feeling and ideas. I met people from various countries, and I know that each country has a different way of communicating with others. That’s why I would like to help you to understand Japanese not only as a language, but also a culture and a social context in a deep relationship with the language. I believe my skills and experiences will be useful to you.

Having climbed the “mountain of fluency” in two foreign languages, I know exactly how hard and frustrating the journey can be, but I also know how rewarding and satisfying finally making it to the top is. To me, wrapping your head around a completely new way of thinking that often comes with achieving fluency in a language is one of the best feelings I know, and I want to share it with you. As someone with a strong background in science, my specialty is scientific communication and technical writing. I also think my experience in grappling with abstract scientific concepts has taught me to explain grammatical concepts and semantic nuances in a concise and easily understandable way.

Let's talk and talk! ◆英語レッスンについて 日本語で、初級~中級の英語学習者のみなさんの、英語学習のお手伝いをします。ネイティブスピーカーと会話して、スピードや音に慣れるのは不可欠ですが、いきなりネイティブと会話しても、文法や基本的なルールの理解が出来ないケースがありますよね。分からないことを分からないと伝えて質問することすら出来ないこともあると思います。まずは母国語でしっかりと知識を定着させることが初学者にとっては大事だと思います。 ◆As for Japanese lesson Basically, my lesson is going to be based on free conversation, then maybe intermediate or advanced Japanese learner would be appreciated. Through the conversation I will show you some new vocabularies, phrases, idioms or even proverbs that are commonly used in our daily conversation. Then you will sound more natural.
