Hi, I’m Yuji, born and raised in Japan. I used to work as a professional subtitle translator.
Ik als leerkracht
Experience:
I taught over 160 lessons in my first two months on another platform, thanks to my amazing regular students.
What I enjoy:
🎸J-rock and R&B concerts
✈️travelling to Disney resorts abroad
♨️finding and visiting cozy and stylish Japanese inns with hot springs across Japan.
📺all-time favorite anime : ONE PIECE (ZORO is my sprit animal)
🗣️language learning: Learning English has always been fun and I'm interested in learning other languages, too (spoiled for choices, though!).
As a translator, I adapted various English content into natural Japanese. I now use this skill to help learners start speaking Japanese naturally and with confidence, all in a relaxed atmosphere.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
It's all about “co-action” -- a learning experience we build together✨ Mistakes and questions are all welcome!
🎯Absolute beginners (N5)
We use the GENKI I textbook (3rd edition) as a solid framework, incorporating your interests to keep things relevant and entertaining. No rush. Let's start with warming up to the language!
🎯N2-N1 students
Let's focus on real conversations. You’ll take your Japanese up a notch while receiving feedback on your word choice and pronunciation, helping you sound more native-like.
✅Trial lesson
We’ll figure out your Japanese level and interests through a laid-back chat, and decide together how to proceed from there.
