Pair lesson available! こんにちは！ゆきです。 I was born and raised in Osaka, and now I’m based in Melbourne🦘🐨 Do you have these problems when it comes to studying Japanese? ---------------- "I want to practice speaking Japanese but I don’t feel confident expressing what I want to say correctly." "I'm a complete beginner and don’t know where to start." "I’m interested in taking JLPT but don’t want to study just using a textbook and would like to learn in a fun way while talking with a teacher." ---------------- Then please book a trial lesson with me. I will be your teacher—and your guide on your language learning journey :) One of my strengths as a Japanese teacher is that I can teach in English.

So I always make sure my lessons are fun and not too intense. However, if you’re highly motivated and would like a lot of homework, don’t worry—I can give you plenty 😆 I used to be very shy but I love teaching and enjoy communicating with my students through lessons.
