Hi, I'm Josey from Japan! Live in Mexico and speak Japanese, English, Spanish and bit of Portuguese.
I studied Law and Computer Science. I also work as a Programmer and learned Portuguese on italki. My passion is to help students achieve their goals. Strengthen their skills in speaking, listening and reading. I helped many students with exams, checking HW, preparing for traveling and moving to Japan. All my classes are customized for student's needs.
I would like to exchange travel experiences and get to know more about my student’s country. I traveled to 28 counties so far, and I love to meet my international students to learn more.
Me as a Teacher
I have taught Japanese in Peru, Colombia. Also taught English in a school in Mexico and Peru. Thanks to your support, I completed more than 7000 classes on italki.
I run an active and dynamic class where we can talk, and challenge a lot!
Tons of reasons to study this language.
・Traveling (Moving) to Japan 🛫
・Exam(JLPT and school test or HW)📝
・Hobbies (Anime, Music Movies..etc)🏯
・Just want to learn!!! 🤩
I'll organize matching your aim and reasons why you want to improve and learn Japanese. We can program an original class that can approach your needs.
I'm open to every class type. Flexible for each student (grammar, conversation, vocabulary, etc..)
Please let me know!

I struggled a bit in today's class, made plenty of mistakes, and forgot some things I've already learned. Language learning has its ups and downs. But Josey-san was patient and supportive as usual. He simply provided corrections and reminders, and guided me along at a good learning pace. With his approach, I was able to enjoy the lesson and make progress despite the struggles.

A great class with an equally amazing teacher, who is patient, friendly and clearly has experience in teaching, his energy and motivation keeps me moving forward at a fast pace while making every subject clear and getting all my questions answered. I completely recommend it for anyone that’s interested in Japanese, specially since it’s very beginners-friendly.

Josey does a great job of helping you work through misunderstandings. He also gives examples of what to say to keep a conversation flowing. Additionally, his lessons have a great structure, but he is willing to change it on the fly.
ありがとう!

Josey-san has a knack for challenging you to work hard in a fun way. His approach is effective. It's nice to walk away from a class feeling excited and motivated to learn more.

Josey-san is a legend. Today I was struggling a bit, but he never skips a beat. Always patient and helps immensely when you are stuck. One thing that's really important as far as teachers are concerned is the clarity with which they speak, and Josey has a great voice that is both easy to understand and clear enough to listen to. Fantastic teacher, highly recommend him. Feels like I'm talking to a mate!
