Hi everyone, nice to meet you! My name is Aya.
I’m here to help you learn Japanese, and I offer lessons on italki.
I usually work for an online marketing company, but I also have experience supporting Japanese classes at a college in Brisbane, Australia. Since I’m studying English myself, I can offer advice on the process of learning a second language. I look forward to helping you with your Japanese journey!
Me as a Teacher
Don't be afraid to make mistakes—let's actively practice speaking Japanese in my class!
If needed, I can help you refine your sentences to make them more natural during our lessons. Let's make the most of your valuable time.
I also love traveling, both around Japan and abroad. If you're planning a trip to Japan, I’d be happy to share some advice!
My lessons & teaching style
Before your first lesson, I’ll take the time to learn about your Japanese goals, learning background, and what you’d like to practice. Based on this, I’ll create a lesson plan tailored to your needs, ensuring we make the most of your valuable time.
I can adjust the curriculum to suit your requests, so please feel free to let me know in advance.
Examples of goals we can focus on include:
- Learning Japanese from the basics.
- Mastering beautiful Hiragana and Katakana.
- Preparing to speak confidently on your next trip to Japan.
- Learning business Japanese.
If you’re unsure about booking a lesson or have any questions, don’t hesitate to message me anytime! 😊

In my third lesson so far I was able to learn a lot about Keigo. She was able to teach me something about the topic that I didn’t know even though I thought I knew. ☺️ She was also understanding and flexible when you have limited time for studying or doing homework. I also enjoyed our free talk, which also helped me to be more communicative and open about my thoughts and questions to her rather than just having a purely strict student-teacher relationship.

Aya has excellent communication outside the class. She is very patient with me and helps me correct my mistakes with my pronunciation. She gave me feedback, and a plan for review for our next session. As a beginner in Japanese, learning from someone new can be intimidating, but I feel very comfortable working with her after the trial and a first session.
Aya-sensei worked around a scheduling mistake on my part and even had time to prepare some extra materials on short notice. She is very flexible and helpful!
