Structure is 99%, but It’s Context That Makes It Real—Miss the Context, Miss the Meaning! I specialize in helping ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS to intermediate learners who feel STUCK or don’t know WHERE TO START. My lessons are LOGICAL and STRUCTURED, breaking Japanese into manageable pieces to build your confidence step by step. I know the struggles—particles, conjugations, て forms—but I’ll show you not just “what” to use, but “WHY” it works. My focus is on real-world applications: mastering casual conversations, expressing opinions, and understanding cultural nuances. Every mistake is a stepping stone. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and always tailored to your unique learning style.

Learn About Japan Through Fun Conversations‼️English OK🌸 Hi! I’m from Fukuoka, Japan, and Japanese is my first language. I studied abroad in Ireland in high school, where I learned English. I later lived in Tokyo for seven years before returning to Fukuoka. I currently teach Japanese online and also work in Japanese-English interpretation and tour guiding. I love languages, travel, and connecting with people from different cultures. I have traveled across Europe, Asia, and the US, so we can talk about Japanese culture, life in Fukuoka and Tokyo, travel, food, and more. I have taught Japanese online for over a year and currently have around 35 regular students. One of my strengths is explaining Japanese clearly and logically in English. I can help you understand grammar, differences between expressions, and the nuances of Japanese words. I’m also confident teaching keigo. Through my experience in an NGO, I learned appropriate Japanese for formal situations. I can teach natural polite Japanese, business keigo, and more formal expressions. I believe learning Japanese becomes more meaningful when you also understand the culture, customs, and ways of thinking behind the language. My lessons can include conversation, reading, listening, Japanese for travel, grammar, and cultural discussion. Whether you are a complete beginner, preparing for a trip to Japan, or an advanced learner who wants conversation practice, I can adapt the lessons to your goals. My goal is to make Japanese practical, enjoyable, and easy to understand.

My first priority is students' interests and purposes of taking lessons. I'm here to help you attain your goals no matter what they are. I usually take students from intermediate to advanced level speakers since I'm a community tutor who don't have a structured series of courses with textbooks. For completely beginners and those who are younger than 18, I recommend to consider taking lessons with other professional tutors. My classes will also be good for those who are planning to visit Japan since I can provide lots of useful information of sightseeing spots, cultural perspectives and useful greetings/phrases/words as a traveler. 日本の文化や日本に来たときに役に立つあいさつやフレーズを教えることもできます。
