I choose materials and lesson methods based on your level, goals, and learning style. You will always understand what we are studying, why it is important, and how to use it in real communication.

I teach complete beginners, self-study learners, conversation learners, and professionals who need polite or business Japanese. I studied linguistics at university and began teaching Japanese while I was still a student. After graduating, I taught Japanese in Thailand for two years. I later built a career in HR at Japanese and global companies before returning to Japanese teaching full-time. I am originally from Hokkaido and have also lived in the United States and Thailand 🌏 I understand how challenging it can be to learn, live, and communicate in another language and culture. You can relax, make mistakes, and ask questions anytime. I will not pressure you, but I will guide you clearly and help you keep moving forward.

I am currently accepting one student! Hello everyone. My name is Mio. I live in Kobe in Japan. I was working as a professional Japanese language teacher in language school for years. My hobby is to travel around the world and I have already been to 35 countries so far. I was living in CA, US when I was in high school. I’m qualified to teach Japanese and I was working at Japanese language school for 5 years. Also I do online private lessons. I have been teaching 34 students and done more than 1050 lessons so far including Italki lessons. My students often said that I am diligent, cheerful and make a lot of effort every lesson. I have a lot of experience in teaching practical Japanese and JLPT. IF you take my lesson, I will make your own curriculum according to your goal and share it on google drive with you. In my lessons, I use a textbook called “ みんなの日本語ⅠⅡ beginners level “ which is a very popular textbook used by most of the language schools all over the world. If you don’t have this textbook I can teach you by PowerPoint instead. Also I can teach Kanji for JLPT! In my lesson, I’ll try not to use English because I think that speaking only Japanese is the best way to improve your Japanese skill. ( I can use English if you want!) I want to teach Japanese seriously to each person. I want to have only a few students because I need to spend a lot of time to prepare lessons. ６月中旬より、日本語の先生向けの相談レッスンも始めました☺
