Wherever you are in your Japanese journey, I'll get you to that 'wait, I understood that!' moment! ■ About Me Hi everyone, I’m Mayumi, but you can call me May! I’ve been teaching Japanese in Melbourne, Australia for 10+ years and am proud to be ranked in the top 1% of Japanese teachers on italki. I also have experience as an instructor for Japanese Teacher Training Courses. Before teaching, I worked for 8 years as an Executive Assistant at a major gaming company in Tokyo, so I can help with not only daily conversation, but also Business Japanese, polite expressions, and workplace manners for those planning to live, study, or work in Japan. I’m relaxed, friendly, and easy-going, and I love making your Japanese journey fun and rewarding. ■ Lesson Style I always take time to understand each student’s goals and learning style, then create lessons that match their needs. My classes are enjoyable, stress-free, and easy to follow, helping students feel confident to participate. My teaching style is mainly Japanese-only, adjusted to your level, but English explanations are also available when needed. ■ How I Can Help You I teach a wide range of Japanese skills, from beginner conversation to advanced speaking, Business Japanese, and practical communication. I speak clearly, provide visual materials (especially for beginners), and focus on speaking practice with natural correction to improve fluency and confidence. My goal is that after every lesson, you leave with something useful you can use in real life! I am looking forward to meeting you soon :)

Having climbed the “mountain of fluency” in two foreign languages, I know exactly how hard and frustrating the journey can be, but I also know how rewarding and satisfying finally making it to the top is. To me, wrapping your head around a completely new way of thinking that often comes with achieving fluency in a language is one of the best feelings I know, and I want to share it with you. As someone with a strong background in science, my specialty is scientific communication and technical writing. I also think my experience in grappling with abstract scientific concepts has taught me to explain grammatical concepts and semantic nuances in a concise and easily understandable way.

Professional language teacher: Teaching experience in Japan and the U.S. Enjoy the real conversation --No refund within 24 hour cancellation. --- **** I'm taking maternity leave from September. *** Hi, my name is Yuko. I'm from Nagasaki. I like traveling, watching Netflix, listening to music, cooking etc. My family are farmers so I love being in nature. We grow rice, oranges, and some vegetables. I've been studying about kimono(Japanese traditional clothes) too. Beyond language instruction, I am passionate about sharing authentic Japanese culture with learners. My approach combines linguistic education with cultural immersion for a comprehensive learning experience. I've taught Japanese in Portland, Oregon, US, then I came back to Japan and taught English for a junior high school and elementary schools. Now, I'm teaching Japanese for non Japanese speakers and teaching English for Japanese online and offline. I really enjoy my jobs and am happy to see my student's progress. My lessons are very flexible. I can change my teaching style depending on the student's level and needs. If you want something more advanced we can have conversations, read articles, practice vocabulary together. If you consider yourself as a beginner, we can practice hiragana / katakana / kanji, basic vocabulary and conversations, and grammar. I speak Japanese mainly in my lessons but I can help you in English if you need. Don't worry! Let's have fun in learning Japanese. ***I only accept the package request from the student who've done lesson with me at lease one time. ***
