Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

Over 6 years of teaching in language school experience 【When I was a university student】 I helped Japanese children and exchange students to learn Japanese as a tutor. I also had experienced Japanese tutoring for American students in Arizona State University. 【Now】 I'm working as a Japanese language teacher for foreigners. By working as a teacher, I realized that age doesn't matter!! There is no late to start learning! Basically, when I teach, I will use Japanese all the way to improve your Japanese skill. But, you can also ask questions in English or Portuguese if it's hard. I understand how difficult to learn foreign languages by my experience. But I'll try my best to help you! Don't worry.

Whenever students requested it, I also use English in your lesson. I love thinking about what kind of lessons would fit for each student.

Polyglot and TEFL-certified teacher with 6 years of teaching experience I teach English conversation to intermediate and advanced students, during which I make careful suggestions as to how students can improve the grammatical accuracy and idiomatic appropriateness of their spoken English. My strong understanding of Russian has enabled me to help many Russian-speakers in particular. I have heard every mistake Russians can make in English! I also have a special interest in phonetics and phonology. I have a postgraduate education in this subject, and particularly enjoy working on pronunciation. Students looking for detailed feedback on their pronunciation should feel free to contact me.

I’ll help turn your worries about learning a language into fun and confidence. Hi, I'm Taka. Take it easy—that's my philosophy. I love talking to people from all over the world. Every student teaches me something new. You're welcome here. Let's grow together. Right now, I'm based in Tohoku, learning about agriculture and enjoying ramen every week. But life wasn't always like this. I spent more than a decade in Tokyo working in fashion, probably selling your country's brands. That experience gave me deep people skills and the ability to understand what customers needed—skills I use in my teaching. In lessons, I will never rush you. I wait for you to speak and create space for you to say a lot. You talk more, make mistakes, correct yourself, and improve. That's how we solve the common problem—"I can understand, but I can't speak." **What I Teach** If you want academic Japanese study, my lessons may not fit. I recommend a teacher who specializes in that. My lessons are conversation-focused. I don't focus on "correct" or "wrong," but on whether expressions are natural for native speakers. Through free conversation, you'll learn living Japanese: natural rhythm, real expressions, and authentic communication skills. As my students say, the lessons are fun and full of laughter. In this atmosphere, you'll develop the ability to speak naturally and confidently with Japanese people—as an equal. That's the goal. Speaking well with anyone, anywhere.

「褒めるばかりで、直してもらえない。」 度々お聞きします。ネイティブ並みを目指す方。発音アクセント・イントネーションを重点に、ていねいに指導・訓練します。 正確な文法、豊富な語彙を備えながら、話し方のせいで母語で話しているときの知的な印象が無くなり、子供っぽく感じる方にたくさんお会いしてきました。 発音矯正を重視し、洗練された話し方を練習します。そして教養や感性を伝えるためにはそれを表す語彙が必要ですので、たくさんの表現方法を覚えていただけるよう、より豊かな日本語へと導きます。 　言葉は知性、品性を表します。教養にふさわしい知的な話し方は訓練で身につけられます。 これから40年、50年日本語を使っていくのですから、今の流行りの話し方ではなく、一生使える日本語を覚えていただきます。目標はどこに出ても恥ずかしくない言葉使いを身に着けていただくことです。 　作文コースではプロの文筆家として、日本語で表現をしたい方、論文、大切な人への手紙など、伝えたいことを力強く支援します。ネイティブチェックも高い品質で行います。 With my experience as a presenter in NHK programs, I can teach you how to present yourself. Kimberleeさんからいただいたレビュー 今日もありがとうございました。大変勉強になりました。It is difficult to find a teacher who not only gives precise and detailed feedback on pitch, intonation, and pacing, but provides corrections. Many instructors don't correct students on pronunciation, or if they do they have trouble articulating how mistakes should be corrected. Mao-sensei always listens carefully and provides precise feedback. She is patient and kind, but does not let mistakes "slide;" something which I really appreciate.I look forward to continuing my studies, and hopefully learning more work phrases to help me in my daily life.

My life has been a journey of connecting with people from all walks of life, embracing new cultures, and diving into languages (I’ve studied ten so far!). I love sharing this global perspective with my students and believe language is the key to understanding the world. If you’re curious about Japanese language and culture, or want to learn from someone who truly understands the excitement and challenges of learning a new language, I’d love to meet you!
