Certified Japanese teacher who used to hang out with super famous J-POP musicians For beginners I use teaching materials and focus on the Genki textbook. For JLPT I use a JLPT textbook. I published a book about how to get high scores on exams using only short term study and it's best seller on Amazon so I certainly know plenty of tips. Let's study efficiently together! I know many Japanese learners have headaches for particles like the difference between 'が’ and 'は', 'に’and 'で’, 自動詞(はいる)and 他動詞(いれる). As a professional teacher, I am willing to explain and practice with you. You can book my trial lesson directly.But ask me if you have a question. *Recently, I receive many inquiries without questions.Please kindly clarify your question when you message me.

拥有超过十三年对外汉语教学经验! An excellent teacher needs not only a solid foundation in the language, enthusiasm, self confidence, lively and interesting lesson plans but they also need to understand the correct methods for learning(teaching) a language. During my TESOL training I learnt the theory of how our brain and body learn languages. I also learnt more than thirty different excellent teaching methods from all over the world. I have since used these methods in my everyday teaching and found them to be really effective. Over the past eight years I’ve taught more than 500 different students with ages ranging from 2 to 70 plus years. I’ve seen how their language learning has brought them great satisfaction and happine

While we talk, I introduce different ways to say the same thing. In Japanese, there are many ways to make requests or ask questions. The expression often changes depending on who you are talking to.

I try to get the most out of my learners and give them back what they need. Also, I don't think it is enough to just present the learning items.

Absolute beginners are welcome😊 Let's study Japanese language and the culture behind it together! Born in Tokyo and raised in Kanagawa, I now call Oregon home after moving from Japan a few years ago. As an intercultural communication specialist (BA & MA), I love bridging cultures through language—especially with beginners! When not teaching, I’m baking, binge-watching shows, sewing, or traveling. I love animals (I have 6 fur babies), and your pets are welcome to join lessons anytime to make learning relaxed and fun. Let’s explore Japanese language *and* culture together! 東京生まれ、神奈川育ち、数年前からオレゴン在住です。国際文化学専攻(学士・修士)の経験を活かし、初心者にも優しく日本語と文化を教えています。レッスン以外ではお菓子作りや旅行、Netflix鑑賞をしていることが多いです。動物が好きなので(6匹飼っています)、ペットと一緒にレッスンに参加するのも大歓迎です!リラックスした雰囲気で、一緒に楽しく学びましょう! I started teaching Japanese in 2013 as a volunteer in my hometown, and completed all the requirements of the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in 2020. I have met people from more than 30 countries through this teaching career so far and I really enjoy teaching the language and the culture. 2013年に地元でボランティア講師として日本語を教え始め、2020年に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。日本語を教えることを通じて今まで30カ国以上の人に出会い、日本語と日本の文化を教えることをとても楽しんでいます。 Because italki is mainly for private lessons, I would like to focus on what and how the students want to study. I think studying Japanese in Japanese is a bit too hard sometimes (especially for beginners), so I would love to help students by using English if needed. If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to message me. For the cancellation policy, please check the lesson booking page.

A friendly and talkative teacher of Russian and Japanese:) I have many students off-line, and we enjoy a conversation class. I want my students to spend a great time while learning, not only to get some new information, but also to release some stress from work and have a lot of of positive emotions. Also what I consider important is to help students learn some new vocabulary during the class, as I think it can be the most difficult part when you struggle with language learning. So I suggest to learn new words and practice them immediately by using those words during the class in different forms.

    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

    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.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I find a private Japanese teacher?

Nowadays, with the help of the Internet, it is very easy to find a Japanese language tutor online. All you need to do is to Google “online Japanese teachers” or “Japanese teachers online” and you will be instantly presented with hundreds of search results and websites that offer online Japanese courses. But if you’re specifically looking for private Japanese teachers with years of experience and appropriate credentials, you will find that there are only a few websites that specialize in one-on-one teaching in Japanese.

Is a Japanese tutor worth it?

There are plenty of advantages to learning Japanese with a private tutor. It is widely believed that this is the most efficient way to learn this Asian language since your tutor is focused on working only with you, correcting your mistakes, and helping you improve with every lesson. And with the help of the Internet, you can even find a native Japanese tutor and take private Japanese lessons online.
Taking Japanese lessons online allows you to study at your most convenient time and place. You can connect with your teacher online via Zoom, Skype, or another mobile application from anywhere in the world. Unlike attending traditional language classes, you will find it easy to do your online studies without disrupting your daily schedules. Also, taking Japanese lessons online allows you to hire a native Japanese tutor even if you’re not located in Japan or another Asian country.
Moreover, hiring an online Japanese teacher is preferred over the conventional language courses because a private tutor can create Japanese lessons plan tailored specifically to you and based on your current level. During the one-on-one lessons, they will focus only on you, unlike in a traditional classroom where the teacher’s attention is divided between all their students. Studying with a Japanese tutor will also help you to gain more confidence and insight knowledge of the language. You and your tutor will engage in real-life conversations and practice your speaking skills in common daily situations. In this way, you’ll learn Japanese more efficiently and gain valuable practical experience.
