Certified Japanese Language Teacher with over 15 years of experience I studied the history of philosophy, which led me to develop interests in a wide variety of topics. Besides grammar and language learning, I especially enjoy discussing 17th-century philosophy, Descartes, Aristotle, Leibniz, Kant, medicinal cannibalism, the philosophy of witchcraft, Haitian zombies (anthropology), Ninja Science, and Yōkai phenomena in early modern Japan. I also enjoy conversations about movies, anime, books, politics, and history in general. Teaching has always been one of my passions. My first part-time job after high school was teaching English at a cram school, and since then I have loved learning together with students through curiosity, discussion, and discovery. I am currently studying to become a university professor/researcher, so teaching is closely connected to both my academic interests and long-term career goals. I often find that I learn as much from my students as they (hopefully) learn from me. My teaching style is best described as a semi-formal university lecture combined with relaxed conversation. Lessons are customized for each student, and we can explore topics that naturally improve grammar, vocabulary, and conversational ability through meaningful discussion. I primarily teach in English and focus especially on beginner to intermediate learners of Japanese. Students are also welcome to record lessons for personal review.

Let's learn REAL Japanese with me! Hello, I'm Nozzy! I'm from Japan. I was born and raised in Osaka and grew up in Yokohama next to Tokyo. So I can speak both standard Japanese and Osakaben which has dialects and accents from south. I have been living in many different places in Japan, the US, Canada, Australia and travelled 26 countries so far. Since 2020, I started teaching English online. Teaching language was much more fun than I thought. That is why I started teaching Japanese as well. Through my experiences and knowledge, I share the culture with my students and teach REAL Japanese without a textbook. After all of my experiences in abroad, I learnt language was just a tool of communication. Learning and understanding international culture helps to improve your communicational skill. This is why I always choose topics related to your culture, lifestyle, and your preferences for our lessons. Age: 10 years old or older If you are younger than 10, you can take my group lessons with adult. Level: Beginner - Intermediate If you are a beginner of Japanese, do not worry at all. I taught many students like you. You will get there! Lesson Style: No textbook or homework unless you wanted. I create lesson plans for you based on your level, goal, and your preference. See you in my trial lesson and let's discuss what's best for you !

Not a teacher, but your ally :) Let's learn Japanese your way. Hi, I'm Midori! I've been teaching Japanese online since 2020 and have worked with more than 1,000 learners from all over the world. One thing I've learned over the years is that every student is different. Some people love grammar. Some want to improve their pronunciation. Some want structured lessons with homework. Others just want a comfortable place where they can practice speaking Japanese without feeling nervous. That's why I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I try to adjust my lessons to each student's goals, personality, and learning style. My lessons are usually relaxed, interactive, and conversation-focused. Making mistakes is completely okay here. In fact, mistakes are often the fastest way to improve. I enjoy meeting people from different countries and backgrounds, and I love hearing about my students' jobs, hobbies, cultures, and life experiences. So whether you want to study with a textbook, prepare for work or university, improve your conversation skills, or simply enjoy speaking Japanese, I'd be happy to support your journey. Let's learn Japanese together—at your pace, in your own way :)

    Learning Japanese

    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

    Kyouko is an amazing Japanese teacher! She has been of great assistance helping me to develop confidence in my speaking. She truly cares about her student's progress and has developed materials and roleplaying exercises tailored to my specific needs. I highly recommend her as a teacher.

    Lessons with Anri先生 are very good. She is always prepared and never late to our classes. I often feel encouraged to try my best and speak even if I am not sure if I am correct. In case of any mistakes, the are explained in understandable way. The atmosphere is also very friendly. I really enjoy our lessons, I feel motivated to continue my learning and I can see my level raising from lesson to lesson. Highly recommended!

    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.

    独学でJLPT N1に合格した後、次はどうやってネイティブレベルに近づいていけばいいのか相談したくて、こうすけ先生を選びました。 最初のレッスンでは、一緒に自分の改善点や癖を見つけ、今後のレッスンプランを立てていただきました。また、レッスンプランに沿って進めるだけでなく、日本での日々の生活の中で感じた疑問や、日本語についての質問にも柔軟に答えていただいています。 毎回楽しく話しながら、自分でも少しずつ「ネイティブレベル」という大きな目標に近づいていると感じています。 初心者だけではなく、すでにN2やN1レベルの上級日本語を身につけている方にも、こうすけ先生のレッスンをおすすめします!

    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.

    先生の親しみやすさとプロ意識がとても好きです!いつもリラックスした雰囲気で、文章の修正やネイティブらしい自然なニュアンスを教えてくださいます。 レッスンでは日本語のちょっとしたコツだけでなく、日本人の思考パターンに合わせた文章の書き方や、相手に伝わりやすいコミュニケーションの方法まで学べます。 単に日本語を鍛えるだけでなく、「自分が本当に伝えたいことは何なのか」を深く理解し、その中から重要なポイントを絞り込んで相手に伝えるプロセスを学べました。 自分の考えをどうすれば効果的に伝えられるかを知ることができ、語学の学習以上にとても大切な学びが得られる素晴らしいレッスンです!
