Hello everyone. My name is Mayuna.
I am a native Japanese speaker and a qualified Japanese language tutor. I was born and raised in Tokyo Japan, and currently live in Osaka since 2017. I also have spent about 6 years of my life in English-speaking countries, including Australia and the United Kingdom.

Me as a Teacher
I've been teaching Japanese since 2018. In addition to teaching, I host a podcast on the Japanese language and have been distributing articles in the italki community since 2021 (#JapaneseLeague). My website: https://japanesemayuna.com/
My lessons & teaching style
There is no minimum level requirement for my lessons. You don’t have to bring anything to the class. Please feel free to book a trial lesson and see if it’s right for you. Lessons are very flexible and cater to students’ needs. Lesson content ranges from casual conversation to test preparation.
Mayuna was very patient and did a great job tailoring the lesson to my needs. She helped my through my mistakes and clarified where certain expressions are used verses others, which was a great help as well.
