All levels are welcome, from beginner to advanced, including TOPIK exam preparation. When I was in Korea, I taught Japanese to Korean students. After moving to Australia, I began teaching Korean to foreign learners and completed a Korean language teacher training program to support my students more effectively. I enjoy making Korean easy to understand and fun to learn. Even difficult grammar points can be explained clearly with the right approach, and I’m here to guide you step by step. Let’s work together to improve your Korean with confidence 😊

GENKI/Travel Japanese/Japanese Study Coaching (Build a Daily Study Habit)✏️ Hi, I'm Kanako! I'm a professional Japanese teacher based in Tokyo, and I've been teaching Japanese since 2020. Before becoming a teacher, I lived in Canada for three years for study and work. Outside of teaching, I enjoy traveling around Japan, discovering local food, trying new recipes, and baking. If you love Japan, Japanese food, or travel, I'm sure we'll have plenty to talk about! In my lessons, I create a relaxed and supportive environment where you can learn at your own pace. I don't rush my students, and I enjoy getting to know them personally. My lessons usually start with free conversation and a quick review of homework or a quiz. Then, we'll learn new grammar and practice using it in conversation. I encourage you to think for yourself and give hints when needed, while providing lesson notes and support along the way. Many of my students have continued studying with me for years. They often describe me as patient, friendly, and easy to talk to. You may notice that some of my reviews are older. I took some time away from italki during maternity leave and focused on teaching outside the platform. I'm now gradually reopening my schedule and accepting a limited number of students again. If you're looking for a patient and supportive teacher who will respect your pace while gently guiding you toward your goals, I'd love to meet you! I look forward to seeing you in class!

    I highly recommend Hina Sensei for anyone who is looking to seriously improve their language skills, whether through the JLPT or otherwise. Thanks to Hina Sensei’s well structured lessons and thoughtful feedback, I’ve been able to make more progress than I thought possible. As a person who best learns by doing, I can read textbook explanations and examples all day and not truly understand. But Hina Sensei’s lessons always make me directly engage with the material right away and I learn so much faster this way. Hina Sensei also has tons of in-depth knowledge of the JLPT and learning and putting her strategies into action is really helping me improve. I know this test is a big challenge for me but with Hina Sensei’s guidance I think I’ve got a chance 😊

    We went through more reading strategies today. It was really hopeful to know how to read faster for different types of questions. Chieko’s lesson is always very structured where we go through the theory before diving into the practical and wrapping up with a summary. She’s also very encouraging despite me not being 100% sure and guessing answers which makes me feel at ease. When there is a word I don’t know she also encourages me think what it means as there are probably plenty of words in the JLPT that I won’t know.

    Dear Hana Sensei, It has been a true honor and privilege to take lessons with Hana sensei. She has gotten me more in touch with my Japanese cultural heritage dating back to when my Japanese grandfather first journeyed from Hiroshima to California in 1900. She has been my inspiration to learn Japanese at a higher level continue my learning journey. Currently, I have taken more than 105 weekly lessons. During these lessons, I have learned about Japanese culture, customs, daily life, and how to communicate in Japanese! I have enjoyed my lessons so much that I am striving to one day take the JLPT examination, a comprehensive Japanese language proficiency test. Thank so much for making learning Japanese exceptionally fun and rewarding! I can’t wait for next week’s learning experience! Take care. ~ Debbie

    This is my second (and certainly not last) "Refining Your Japanese: Mastering Natural Expression" class. I took this class because I wanted detailed feedback on the mistakes I frequently make. During the first class, we talked and decided on the type of conversation I wanted, and I chose mostly freestyle unless I have no topics. The class is very fun but extremely helpful! While we're talking, sensei is writing everything I say. After 20 minutes or so, before I change the topic, we go over what I've said and correct it one by one. Sensei gives color-coded feedback and explanation when needed! Soyoko sensei's feedback is extremely detailed, exactly what I wanted and more! Thank you sensei! see you next class :D

    11번째 수업을 마쳤는데, 매번 성과를 느끼고 있습니다. 다소 부족한 어휘력 탓에 서투르게 표현해도 찰떡같이 이해해 주십니다. 문법적인 질문에도 세심하게 답해 주셔서 도움이 됩니다. 단순히 회화 횟수를 채우는 것을 넘어, 저의 실력을 한 단계 도약시켰다고 생각합니다. 하즈키 선생님은 일본어 공부 향상을 도와줄 수 있는 좋은 튜터입니다. 앞으로도 수업은 계속 이어받을 생각입니다.

    As always, we started our lesson with conversation practice. Yukie-sensei is so helpful when I’m trying to form sentences correctly. She also takes notes on our conversations and sends them after each lesson, which is really useful for reviewing! Today, she used drawings to explain the difference between に (ni) and へ (e), which made it so much easier to understand. I really appreciate the care she puts into her explanations and how she makes grammar practice fun and engaging.
