🔥Travel Japan with DIY Van & Professional Japanese teacher🔥 Taught 500+ students over the past 6yrs! Hello! I’m Kaito, a Japanese language teacher. I was born in Tokyo. Currently, I travel across all 47 prefectures of Japan in a self-built camper van, sharing real-life Japanese language and culture directly from each destination. Drawing on my experiences living in Sydney and California, as well as my background in surfing, I offer practical, real-world Japanese lessons from a mobile classroom. With my original “Two-Sentence Structure Method,” you can develop natural conversational skills in a short time—without relying on traditional textbooks. I offer lessons for a wide range of goals, including travel, daily conversation, and JLPT preparation (N5 to N1). Beyond grammar, I also introduce various aspects of Japanese culture, such as tea ceremony traditions and hidden slang. Through unique stories that combine surfing and Japanese teaching, I create a fun learning environment where mistakes are part of the journey. Let’s enjoy the adventure of learning Japanese together!

U.S -Based Linguist, Medical Interpreter, TESOL Chinese/Japanese/English Professional Teacher I hold two Masters degrees from the University of Colorado - Japanese Language and Civilization, and Linguistics. The former provided me with extensive training in translation, interpretation, and literary analysis from both historical and modern perspectives. Linguistics offered me the theoretical and practical basis for teaching a foreign language. I am especially interested in applying phonetic and phonological strategies to classroom teaching in order to prepare students for a native-like pronunciation and intuition. I am a native Chinese Mandarin speaker with Japanese heritage. With the educational training mentioned above, I am capable of teaching both languages.

Certified native Japanese teacher with over 15 years teaching experience (Conversation & JLPT Prep). I majored "Japanese language as foreign language" in my University. The course was designed for people who would like to teach Japanese to foreigners. It was great opportunity to meet foreign students who plan to be Japanese teachers in their countries. I could learn that commonsense makes sense only in where I grew up. Sharing ideas and knowledge for developing and enjoying our lives is the most wonderful thing. Of course "learning language" is a gate to know about other people who have different backgrounds. Would you like to share your ideas with me?
