I have started teaching as a teaching assistant in Japanese classes when I was going to college. For the last 20 years, I've been helping new employees to get adjusted to their lives in Japan. Teaching basic Japanese was one of the support I was providing. I have helped my friends to pass JLPT. I have also supported foreign tourists as a volunteer guide in Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima. Therefore, I am confident that I can support beginner level students well. I love seeing their smiles when they were able to use the language that they learned with locals. That’s the best thing when you are learning a new language. We will talk a lot in my class. That's the best way to gain confidence.

I believe talking with a native speaker is the best way to master a foreign language. I'm always happy to help you learn Japanese with a relaxed and fun speaking lesson! My friends say I am friendly and an excellent listener. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me anytime!

I am flexible and patient teacher! I’ve taken many private lessons of English or Chinese so far, so I can understand what is important for the learners from my experiences.

TOMODACHI TALK ☕️ – Chat. Laugh. Learn. Does speaking Japanese make you nervous? You're not alone. Living in different countries taught me something important: the courage to speak imperfectly is what connects us. I know what it feels like to struggle with a language — the frustration, the self-doubt, the fear of making mistakes. That's exactly why my lessons are a safe, relaxed space where mistakes are not just okay, but welcome. You'll hear me say "Daijoubu!" a lot. No pressure. No rush. Just real Japanese, at your pace. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to build more confidence in conversation, I'd love to learn with you. I teach practical Japanese for daily life — ordering at restaurants, making small talk, handling real situations. I can support you in English whenever you need it. I'm a proud recipient of italki's Excellence Award. I'm here for your journey. Let's take that next step together.
