UK-based experienced teacher — personalised English-medium lessons, clear grammar, real confidence. Originally from Nagoya, Japan, I have over 13 years of professional experience teaching Japanese in the UK, mainly in higher education. I've taught at UK universities and corporate online language training service providers across all levels — from complete beginners to advanced degree students. I've taught students with many different goals: travel, exams, university study, and personal interest. I teach with patience and genuine empathy, and my aim is always to build your confidence alongside your skills. For over 10 years years, I also worked at a research institute specialising in Japanese arts and culture, where I organised public events and outreach activities. Through this work, I developed a deep interest in sharing Japanese culture with people from different backgrounds, something I enjoy bringing into my lessons as well. I'm currently learning Mandarin Chinese myself, so I truly understand the challenges and rewards of language learning — and I bring that empathy into every lesson. I'd love to support you on your Japanese learning journey! I specialise in beginner Japanese, focusing on building a solid grammar foundation and practical everyday conversation. I make grammar clear and manageable, without being overwhelming, always explaining the subtle nuances. My lessons are structured yet relaxed, creating a supportive space where you can grow in confidence. I'd be delighted to discuss your goals, so please don't hesitate to get in touch or book a Trial Lesson!

🌿Practical Japanese for Learners Who Truly Want to Speak ✈️Travel Japanese🍁Canada-based Tutor Konnichiwa, my name is Aya. I currently work full-time as a Japanese language tutor and volunteer at a Japanese Cultural Center on Saturdays. For learners who want to speak Japanese confidently or study Japanese for travel, I offer practical and supportive lessons. Having started learning English as an adult myself, I understand the challenges of language learning. I use this experience to help students progress at their own pace in a relaxed environment. After graduating from university, I worked at a bank for five years before moving to Canada in 2021 for a new chapter in my life. I then worked as a cake decorator for 3 years, and I have long enjoyed baking as a hobby. I love traveling and nature, and I continue to enjoy active hobbies such as hiking, cycling, and ballet lessons. I have backpacked through many countries and always enjoy connecting with local people through culture and cuisine. I value life’s small joys, and I aim to create a warm and relaxed atmosphere in my lessons. Please feel free to share your goals, interests, and any questions you may have.

✨Go beyond textbooks and speak real Japanese.✨ Hello! I’m Marika. I love meeting people from different cultures and sharing experiences through language. Language learning changed my life. When I moved to Australia, I realized that understanding a language and actually speaking it were two very different things. That’s why my goal is to help you turn “I understand Japanese” into “I can speak Japanese.” My teaching style I enjoy digging deeper into conversations and helping you express your thoughts, experiences, and opinions in Japanese. Don’t worry about making mistakes—even the same mistakes. Making mistakes is a natural part of learning. What matters is understanding why the mistake happened. I’ll help you identify where the mistake came from and how to improve it. When appropriate, I encourage students to notice patterns and discover solutions on their own rather than simply giving them the answers. What can you expect from my lessons? Over time, you’ll become more confident speaking Japanese. You’ll learn how to express your own thoughts instead of relying only on memorized phrases. Most importantly, I want to help you become someone who enjoys speaking Japanese. Learning a language takes courage. If you’re here, you’ve already taken the first step. I’d love to support your journey and cheer you on along the way. I look forward to meeting you in class!

🌷Communicative Roleplay Turns Textbook Grammar into Real Speaking Hi, I'm Mizue, your supportive Japanese Language Navigator. With twenty years of teaching experience, I help beginners and lower-intermediate students turn textbook grammar into real, confident speaking skills. Many students study hard and understand grammar perfectly, but still freeze up in real conversations. That's because grammar knowledge alone doesn't build speaking speed. My teaching method is built on three core pillars to close that gap. First, we build accurate grammar using Minna no Nihongo — not just working through the textbook, but using illustrations and applied practice exercises so the rules truly stick. Second, we practice real, naturally-used conversations through Communicative Method roleplay, recreating everyday situations like ordering food, asking directions, or chatting with coworkers, so the right phrases come out automatically when you need them. Third, we take the Keigo (polite Japanese) rules you've learned and put them into live conversation practice, so you can use polite Japanese confidently in real situations, not just recognize it on paper. Throughout every lesson, I explain complex grammar and social nuances in clear, simple English, and I keep my own talking time short so you get the spotlight for practical speaking practice. Mistakes are part of the journey. My lessons offer a warm, patient space to grow, one roleplay at a time. Let's turn your textbook knowledge into real confidence together!

Over 6 years of teaching in language school experience 【When I was a university student】 I helped Japanese children and exchange students to learn Japanese as a tutor. I also had experienced Japanese tutoring for American students in Arizona State University. 【Now】 I'm working as a Japanese language teacher for foreigners. By working as a teacher, I realized that age doesn't matter!! There is no late to start learning! Basically, when I teach, I will use Japanese all the way to improve your Japanese skill. But, you can also ask questions in English or Portuguese if it's hard. I understand how difficult to learn foreign languages by my experience. But I'll try my best to help you! Don't worry.
