Hello, my name is Tohru. I majored in teaching Japanese as a foreign language at university and have had 25+ years of real-world experience as a bilingual corporate executive. Whether you are a novice learner or already an advanced speaker of Japanese, I offer lessons for those striving to achieve a high level of proficiency in Japanese.
What is your goal in studying Japanese?
Are you looking to use Japanese for business?
Do you want to communicate and engage with native Japanese speakers on equal terms?
Perhaps you aim to reach a level where your thoughts and intentions are conveyed accurately and fluently in Japanese.
Ik als leerkracht
I specialize in language education and am a certified Japanese teacher. I have also tutored students in Japanese at a university in California.
As a bilingual speaker of Japanese and English with years of experience in both languages, I am also a professionally trained Japanese-English interpreter.
In addition, I have extensive experience working in marketing, using both Japanese and English. This allows me not only to help you master the Japanese language but also to provide advice and support on what is expected of business professionals in Japan. I can guide you through the culture, etiquette, and other key business matters essential when working in Japan or with Japanese companies.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Advanced Japanese:
We’ll engage in discussions on various topics, often using current events and newspaper articles. This approach will help broaden your range of expressions and introduce vocabulary beyond everyday use. I will also suggest more natural and accurate expressions, focusing on pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar.
Pronunciation Correction:
We will work on refining your pronunciation to make your Japanese sound more natural.

Toru-sensei is a great teacher and a chill individual. I feel like each lesson I get much more useful and actionable feedback than from other teachers. Lessons are efficient but not rushed.
