■ Trial Lesson Description

This trial lesson is for learners who already have some Japanese and want to find the best way to improve their communication.

🗣 How the trial lesson works

First, we talk about:

・your goals
・your current Japanese level
・how you use Japanese now
・situations where you want to communicate better
・what you feel is difficult or unnatural

Based on this conversation, I suggest the lesson style that fits you best.

After that, we do a short practice lesson so you can experience how I give feedback and help you improve your Japanese.

You do not need to know your exact level.

If you are not sure which lesson to choose, or what you should focus on next, this trial lesson is a good place to start.

The goal is to understand where your Japanese is now and what would be most useful to update next.

■ Lesson Description

This lesson is for learners who already have basic Japanese and want to go beyond textbook Japanese through free talk.

🗣 How the lesson works
Free talk is the main part of this lesson.

We enjoy conversation about different topics, and I give you feedback based on what you say, how it sounds, and what fits the situation.

During the lesson, we work on:

・expressions Japanese people actually use
・differences in meaning and nuance between similar expressions
・expressions that fit the person, situation, and relationship
・natural responses and aizuchi
・Japanese-made English (wasei-eigo) and commonly used katakana words
・differences between English words and how they are used in Japanese
・word choice
・pronunciation and intonation
・tone and nuance
・softer or more indirect ways of speaking
・ways to express what you really want to say

My lessons are based on polite, respectful Japanese.
From there, we adjust your expressions depending on the person, situation, relationship, and conversation.

Grammar is not studied alone.
We look at grammar through conversation and focus on what is actually useful for communication.

The goal is not simply to speak more correctly.
It is to understand how Japanese people actually communicate and use Japanese in a way that helps conversations and relationships go more smoothly.

📝 I take personalized notes during the lesson and share them with you afterward.

⏱ Each lesson includes 40 minutes or more of focused free talk.

①Free Talk Japanese: Natural Conversation & Feedback 【フリートーク・自然な日本語】

■ Lesson Description

This lesson is for learners who already have basic Japanese and want to use keigo and polite Japanese more effectively in real communication.

🙇 How the lesson works
We practice how to choose expressions based on:

・who you are speaking to
・the situation
・your relationship with the other person
・how formal or polite you need to be

We can practice situations such as:

・the workplace
・hospitals and clinics
・public offices
・customer service
・everyday interactions
・situations you personally need in real life

During the lesson, we work on:

・keigo and polite expressions Japanese people actually use
・differences between similar polite expressions
・word choice
・tone and nuance
・how to soften requests or opinions
・natural responses and aizuchi
・how to sound polite without sounding too formal or distant

Rather than memorizing keigo rules only, we focus on how polite Japanese actually works in communication.

My lessons are based on respectful Japanese, but being “more polite” is not always better.
We adjust your Japanese so it fits the person, situation, and relationship.

As a former Japan Airlines cabin attendant, I have professional experience using polite, situation-appropriate communication in real situations.

📝 I take personalized notes during the lesson and share them with you afterward.



■ 日本語

仕事や日常生活で使う敬語・丁寧な日本語を、実際のコミュニケーションに合わせて練習するレッスンです。

会話の中で、

・日本人が実際に使う敬語・丁寧表現
・似た敬語表現の意味やニュアンスの違い
・相手・場面・関係性に合った言い方
・依頼や意見をやわらかく伝える表現
・自然な相づち・返事
・丁寧すぎず、失礼にもならない話し方

などを一緒に整えます。

敬語は「丁寧であればあるほど良い」とは限りません。
相手との距離感や場面に合わせて、自然で適切な丁寧さを選べることを大切にしています。

元日本航空の客室乗務員として、実際の接客現場で敬語や丁寧なコミュニケーションを使ってきた経験も活かしてサポートします。

②Professional & Everyday Polite Japanese 【仕事と生活の日本語・敬語】

■ Lesson Description

This lesson is for learners preparing for job applications and interviews in Japan.

💼 We can work on:

・resumes, CVs, and application documents
・interview answers
・mock interviews
・follow-up questions
・professional Japanese and keigo

A good interview is not only about using correct or difficult Japanese.

I look at both your Japanese and the content of your answers:

・What might a Japanese interviewer want to know more about?
・Does your answer clearly show your experience and strengths?
・Does the Japanese match your actual speaking level?
・Can you explain it naturally in your own words?

If your prepared answers are very different from the Japanese you usually use, they may sound unnatural during the interview.

Instead of creating “perfect” answers, we adjust them so they are professional, convincing, and realistic for you to use in the actual interview.

🗣 We also practice how to respond when the interviewer asks unexpected or deeper questions.

Before becoming a Japan Airlines cabin attendant, I personally went through recruitment processes with more than 40 companies. I use both this experience and my perspective as a Japanese teacher to support your preparation.

The goal is not to memorize perfect Japanese, but to communicate who you are, what you have done, and what you can offer—in your own Japanese.

📝 I take personalized notes during the lesson and share them with you afterward.
