Travel Japanese today, JLPT N5 tomorrow. Let’s enjoy the journey, one step at a time! Hi, I'm Fuka! 🌸 I'm learning English myself, so I know that nervous feeling right before you say your very first sentence.

But my favorite thing is meeting people from all over the world. Imagine ordering at a little restaurant in Japan, and the staff smiles and answers you in Japanese. That's the moment my lessons are built for. What I can help you with ✈️ Travel Japanese — ordering, shopping, trains, chatting with locals 📚 JLPT N5 through travel — prepare for your trip and build test skills along the way 💬 Conversation practice for intermediate & advanced learners What my lessons are like Beginners welcome — I can explain in English No grammar jargon, just phrases you'll really use A small culture & manners tip in every lesson Handmade materials made for your goals Tell me about your dream trip to Japan in a trial lesson.

Three years’ experience as a Japanese teacher!¡Tres años de experiencia como profesor de japonés! Hi! My name is Terumi. I am 30 years old. I graduated from the Spanish faculty. I lived in Mexico for a year as a UV student and in Spain for three months. I’ve also been to the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and France. I have a DELE B2 certificate and a TOEIC score of 765. My hobbies range from music and novels to sports. As for music, I play the guitar, sing, and compose songs. As for sports, I enjoy weight training, martial arts, and snowboarding. As for novels, I enjoy foreign fiction, but I also like Japanese historical novels. I enjoy talking about shared interests, but I also love learning about new subjects. I have experience teaching group lessons for beginners in Japanese and volunteered to teach Japanese while studying abroad in Mexico. Therefore, I understand the difficulties beginners face when studying Japanese. Since I also taught intermediate and advanced students in private lessons, I can teach students of all levels, and my top priority is helping them enjoy the learning process and improve. While free-talk lessons are the most common, I also use textbooks, news articles, and supplementary materials, such as songs and anime, for study. After each lesson, I will compile the vocabulary covered in class into a table for easy reference, so you can review it at any time(Excluding Free-Talk Specialized Class). I look forward to seeing you all in class! See you soon!

I'm here for beginners :) I use textbook GENKI and irodori. I was a school teacher for several years so I've learned to teach live people and not just through the computer. I teach not only adults but children too! I have taught 7 year old kids who did not speak Japanese at all when we began. We started from Hiragana and worked up to words and sentences. I love teaching all levels, so of course beginners are welcome! I have textbooks allowing us to crossed between book based lessons and speaking lessons. But if you want to be fluent in Japanese, you should learn with textbook, and learn Japanese language! I'll teach you how to speak in a real conversational manner and not the formal helpful but not natural conversation method used by textbooks.

No stress/ Relaxed lessons with me Hi! I'm Mami! I'm from Osaka, Japan. After spending 7years in Australia I currently live in France and enjoy experiencing their culture, streetscape and food of course:) I like traveling to meet people and feel different culture and try local food. In my class I want you to feel as comfortable and relaxed as if you were talking with your friends. As I'm from Osaka, I speak differently from Tokyo dialect which is Kansai dialect (Kansaiben) in my daily life. We have own vocabulary, intonation and pronunciation. We'll practice daily conversation with any topics you like and I can correct pronunciation and intonation while chatting. *my lessons are for people who - want to practice Japanese/Kansaiben - know already Japanese but want to learn how to speak in the Kansaiben - just want to talk with someone who speak Japanese - want to know some expression, slang that we use - want relaxed lessons *my lessons are NOT for people who - want to learn business Japanese - want to focus on grammar /reading /writing (I can help with those but I'm not professional teacher) My goal is to help you speak naturally and confidently :)

    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.
