Yako Kimura
I've taught theatre and performing arts at the Japanese Culture Foundation in Sendai for over 12 years. My experience in supporting professionals and non-professionals helps me to teach Japanese to non-native speakers. I understand people want to communicate to explain themselves and to share feeling and ideas. I met people from various countries, and I know that each country has a different way of communicating with others. That’s why I would like to help you to understand Japanese not only as a language, but also a culture and a social context in a deep relationship with the language. I believe my skills and experiences will be useful to you.

Let's improve your spoken Japanese with your coach 🇯🇵 I’m your conversation partner. When I studied abroad, I knew grammar but couldn’t speak. What helped me was having people who encouraged me to talk freely without worrying about mistakes. That’s the same space I want to give you. In our lessons, you’ll practice speaking naturally, with gentle corrections only when needed. Thanks to my coaching background, I’m good at asking questions that help you express yourself more deeply. My goal is simple: to make Japanese feel enjoyable, natural, and part of your real life.
