I've been a Japanese teacher for over 7 years.
I used to teach at a school, but since my baby was born, I decided to teach only online and focus on taking care of my baby during the day.
I speak Japanese with a standard accent, so my Japanese is very clear and easy to understand.
I also speak English. If you have zero knowledge of the Japanese language, that's okay!
Learning a new language is hard. One day you might feel like giving up, and another day you might feel like starting again. There are always some challenges.
I want you to feel like you are not forced to study, and I want you to have fun using the Japanese language in conversation.
Look forward to talking with you soon!

Focus on Speaking and listening.
The best way of improving a new language is to use it a lot.
A language is a communication tool. I will make sure that you will be able to communicate with people by using Japanese.

Sensei, thank you very much for the class just now. By reading the article, with your explanations, I learn new words, repeating and practicing some words, it helps me to refresh and encourages me to repeat and speak more!

I have been learning Japanese with Shinya Sensei for exactly two years now and I just want to share a little bit about my experience.
Every lesson has been really enjoyable. Shinya Sensei communicates clearly and his manner is friendly and relaxed. I also appreciate that Shinya Sensei uses different kinds of resources and that he will adapt the lesson according to my needs. Sensei also uses a shared Google Doc where he makes notes that I can review. I can also make sentences here and receive feedback.
I can honestly say that I don’t find speaking Japanese easy and I am prone to getting nervous and having my mind go blank! However, Shinya Sensei is always patient and he encourages me to keep trying. He is also great at explaining things and he corrects my mistakes in a positive way.
If you are looking for a Sensei who is professional, engaging, patient and fun - definitely book with Shinya Sensei.
先生、ありがとうございました。

I’ve been having lessons with Shinya Sensei for over a year now and since the start, Shinya Sensei’s lessons have been fun, engaging and challenging. Each week, I finish the lesson with more motivation to study and more desire to become 上手. As time has passed, he has tailored the lessons to suit my needs and to support my self study so I feel like I’m progressing more than ever. My favourite thing about learning with Shinya Sensei is that he doesn’t just teach me Japanese but he makes time to just chat (in Japanese of course) which has really improved my speaking ability. It’s clear that Sensei just loves sharing the language and the culture of Japan so if you’re thinking about having him as your teacher, I’d say go for it!

After a break, I am back for more lessons with Shinya-sensei. As always we had a great time, and I got to brush up my Japanese. See you in the new year!
