🟡まちがえても大丈夫!優しい雰囲気です🟡リアルな日本語で一緒に話しましょう🟡 Hello! I'm a native Japanese speaker from the Kanto area (Tokyo/Kanagawa). I’m patient, kind, and love helping others communicate in Japanese. My goal is to help you speak confidently and enjoy the learning process. I’ve been inspired by amazing teachers during my own studies, which led me to teach Japanese through volunteer work and language exchange. I’m excited to share what I’ve learned and help you on your journey. I recently completed a 420-hour online Japanese course in April 2025. 🟨 Recommended for adult learners at A1 level or higher.

どこの国に行っても道を尋ねられるタイプです。I am the type of person who is asked for directions wherever I go. 海外旅行中は「日本語を教えて」「私の名前を漢字で書いて」などよく言われ、日本語を教えることもよくありました。 チェコやネパールでは個別に教えることもありました。 編集ライターの経験があるため、日本語には敏感です。 また、仕事で採用を担当しているので、採用面接のデモをすることができます。 While traveling abroad, I was often asked to “teach Japanese” or “write my name in kanji” and I often taught Japanese. In the Czech Republic and Nepal, I even taught them individually. Because of my experience as an editorial writer, I am sensitive to the Japanese language. I am also in charge of recruitment at work, so I can demonstrate recruitment.

Certified Japanese Teacher for Anime Fans – Learn with a Pro! Since I was a university student, I have studied various languages such as Chinese, Korean. Therefore, I understand your difficulties in learning Japanese. I ’m a language learner too. English is a language that I have been studying for a long time. I respect people who can speak English or any other language that I have studied. I think it is hard to control your motivation, especially when you are learning a language that isn't much of an opportunity to use in a daily life. But the most important thing is enjoy learning. I will listen to your interests and do my best to include as much as possible in the teaching materials. So, please tell me a lot about yourself in the first lesson!

Multi lingual Japanese teacher! As a language learner, I know what is more important in learning different languages. For some people memorizing words and phrases will work, for some people just having a real conversation with a native speaker will help. So let's find what works for you and learn together! 日本人の方へ、英語を勉強していらっしゃる方で、英語を勉強したい方は日本語を使って説明ができますので、是非一度レッスンをお試しください。上級の方には英語でのレッスンが効果的だと思いますが、日本語での説明の方がより効果的に内容の把握をすることができると思います。
