Hello, I'm Hikari ✋ I was born and raised in Japan and speak Japanese & English. I have lived in Tokyo, Kyoto, Okinawa, Hokkaido, and many other places. I love travelling! I would love to see all over the world. Also, exploring Japan and getting to know new things have always been my things. I read books, write stories, watch comedies, and go to museums in my free time. Back as a student, I played basketball every single day and still love to watch any sports🏀✨ I like talking with people, so I enjoy this job so much ;) I would love to know your life stories in my lesson 🤩

Hikari is such a wonderfully amazing conversation partner and teacher! Japanese feels very intimidating sometimes as an English speaker, but Hikari makes speaking and learning Japanese feel very fun and comfortable. I would definitely recommend her!

Hikari先生 is always so encouraging and helpful in our lessons! She constantly makes sure that I am able to follow along with what we are talking about, and if I am not understanding, she helps me fill in the gaps! She is always so supportive and leads the conversation in a way that I am able to work on a lot of the speaking skills I am trying to get better at! This was our eighth lesson together and I can absolutely say that having her as a conversational partner/tutor has immensely improved my speaking skills thanks to the supportive and fun environment that she fosters in her lessons. :)

Her style is to try to understand her students well, so you can enjoy the lessons without worrying about your own abilities. At the end of the class, she provides a PDF file with a summary of what you learned that day and feedback on the areas where you made mistakes. By collecting and reviewing these files, you can greatly increase the effectiveness of your learning. He is a very helpful teacher for beginners to intermediate and advanced learners alike. ひかりさんは受講者のことをよく理解しようとするスタイルなので、自分の実力を気にすることなく楽しくレッスンを受けることができます。授業が終わると、その日の学習内容や、自分が間違えた部分についてのフィードバックをPDFファイルでまとめてくれます。このファイルを集めて復習することで、学習効果が大きくなります。 初心者から中級者以上の学習者まで、とても役に立つ先生です。

I only recently found out about italki and I was scared to book a lesson with a Japanese teacher. I wanted to improve my speaking as I know how to write and read but my conversational skills aren't the best. When I was in Hikari sensei's lesson, she made me feel really comfortable and motivated to continue speaking more frequently to improve my skills. Thank you :)

This was a trial lesson and Hiraki was a very good teacher. I will be scheduling another lesson with her.
