My name is Yako. I love to communicate with people and talking about any cultural and social topics. So it is a real pleasure for me to listen and to help people who want to learn to speak in Japanese.
Having lived in different countries and I learned their language. I know how hard it's to speak to new people in a new language. I also know that it's very frustrating when you can't express your feelings and ideas well in another language. I understand exactly how you feel and that's why I will encourage you to speak Japanese without pressure and I'll give you many tips and vocabulary to help you express yourself.
지도 경험
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.
내 강의 및 지도 스타일
My teaching style is tailored to your needs. My ultimate goal is to make you feel more secure and comfortable when speaking Japanese!
I offer informal conversation practice with written and verbal corrections that will help you see and hear the best ways to say and write things. I will help you find words and expressions, so please feel free to talk about any topics that you are interested in or that you are passionate about.
If you prefer more structure, I will offer you to study on:
1. Learning PATTERNS AND EXPRESSIONS
2. Learning SPEAKING STYLES
3. Practice SPEECH TRAINING
I will provide you with texts and PDF documents( Ex: From GENKI, 日本語会話基本文型88, or Other)to help build your skills.

Yako-sensei is so sweet and helpful! She helped me speak in grammatically correct sentences and was quick to stop and explain the words she used when I didn't understand. I felt completely comfortable speaking and making mistakes because I knew that she would help me speak better.
ありがとうございました、木村先生!

Another wonderful class and a great opportunity to practice my accent and conversation. I recently discovered Kimura sensei's podcast on spotify, and I like hearing it during work. She has such a pleasant voice! Thank you again for your patience and kind words.

Long-term Japanese language learner here. I can't recommend Yako highly enough: she's knowledgdable, professional, and always tailors lessons to the needs of her students. On top of that, she's also just a fun person to talk to!

Yako-san helped me read a very difficult/specialized Japanese article today and asked me questions related to the article which helped me explain in my own words. I really appreciated her advice and support!
