Hello, I’m Yoko. I was born and raised in Japan and lived in the United States for six years. I also teach children with international backgrounds at a public elementary school in Japan. I love studying foreign languages myself, so I understand both the fun and the challenges of learning a new language. That’s why I value creating a relaxed and supportive environment. Making mistakes is an important part of learning, so please don’t be afraid to speak and try. My goal is to help you speak naturally and express yourself in your own words, without relying too much on written text. For beginners, I speak slowly, clearly, and in simple Japanese. I am also certified in teaching Japanese to children, so learners from children to adults—are very welcome! Before our first lesson, I will send you a message asking about your Japanese learning experience and other details.

Genki & Intermediate lessons | French speakers welcome |Check out my students' reviews! ※Video was taken in 2022 Looking for meaningful Japanese conversations in a relaxed and supportive environment? Hello! I'm a certified Japanese teacher with 5 years of online teaching experience. My goal is to help you speak Japanese with confidence through practical, enjoyable lessons. Whether you're learning Japanese for work, your studies, or personal interest, I'll tailor each lesson to your level, goals, and interests. I teach students from upper beginners (who already know hiragana and katakana) to advanced learners. My lessons focus on improving speaking and listening skills, expanding vocabulary naturally, and helping you communicate with confidence in real-life situations. I studied political science at university and have lived in Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo, as well as in France, Morocco, and Finland. Living in different countries has given me a deeper understanding of language learning and cross-cultural communication. Outside of teaching, I enjoy traveling, cooking, handicrafts, and learning languages. I studied French at university, have also learned some Arabic and Finnish, so I understand both the challenges and the joy of learning a new language. We mainly use Genki and Chuukyuu o Manabou (intermediate), but I can also customize lessons using articles or conversation topics that match your interests. Don't worry about making mistakes—they're an important part of learning! I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your Japanese goals.
