Absolute beginners are WELCOME ! Certified Japanese teacher with Over 2,000 online Lesson I'm certified Japanese teacher and I have been teaching Japanese since 2009 on italki. I always enjoy teaching and seeing my students improve their Japanese. I am a teacher but I have been studying English and Spanish so I fully understand the difficulty to learn other languages. As I have lived in Tokyo for about 10 years I speak standard Japanese other than Kansai dialect ( 関西弁). I also speak English and Spanish other than Japanese. So don't worry if you have trouble understanding Japanese I can also explain in English as well.

日本語は読めるけど、話すのが苦手な方、日本の小説を日本語で読んでみたい方、面接やプレゼンの練習をしたい方、敬語やビジネス会話を覚えたい方、文章を書く練習をしたい方、お待ちしています。 私はビジネスをリタイヤした後、何をしようかと考えていたとき、まず思い浮かんだことは、外国語を学んで海外の人たちと交流をするということでした。しかし、逆に、私が日本語を教えることによって、多くの外国の方が日本語を理解し、日本が好きになってくれることのほうが、私のためにも、日本語を学ぶ皆さんのためにも有意義だと考えて、日本語教師になりました。 When I was thinking about what I would do after retiring from business, the first thing that came to mind was to learn a foreign language and interact with people from other countries. However, I thought that it would be more meaningful for me and for people learning Japanese if I could help many foreigners understand the Japanese language and come to love Japan by teaching it to them.

[For adult learners] I offer several lessons to learners depending upon what you want to improve. You can refer to the following things in order to decide which lesson to take. If you want to mainly focus on : conversation : Take “Free Japanese conversation“. comprehensive skill/JLPT preparation/Japanese for travel preparation etc. : Take “Custom-made lesson“. kid's education : Take “Japanese for kids“. [For parents and guardians of children who want to learn Japanese] First, I'll check the proficiency level of your children and make a custom-made lesson plan. I normally use several resources such as textbooks, slides, flashcards, quiz and so forth to keep kids motivated and not to bore them. Feel free to contact me! See you soon!

Certified Japanese teacher who used to hang out with super famous J-POP musicians For beginners I use teaching materials and focus on the Genki textbook. For JLPT I use a JLPT textbook. I published a book about how to get high scores on exams using only short term study and it's best seller on Amazon so I certainly know plenty of tips. Let's study efficiently together! I know many Japanese learners have headaches for particles like the difference between 'が’ and 'は', 'に’and 'で’, 自動詞(はいる)and 他動詞(いれる). As a professional teacher, I am willing to explain and practice with you. You can book my trial lesson directly.But ask me if you have a question. *Recently, I receive many inquiries without questions.Please kindly clarify your question when you message me.

😊 Your fellow OTAKU Japanese teacher | Games, Manga & Anime welcome | Shy & introvert-friendly 📚 More than just conversation | Natural corrections without interruption | Deep-dive & otaku questions welcome | Free diary correction for regulars | Nuance & context explained 🩷 I love • Games: FF6 & 10, Yakuza, The Witcher 3 • Anime: Attack on Titan, Tokyo Ghoul, HUNTER×HUNTER, Death Note, Frieren ✅ What you can expect ・Guided conversation with gentle recasts (no interruption, no pressure) ・English support when needed ・Free diary correction for regulars This is more than casual conversation. I share useful words and phrases in the chat and explain subtle differences in meaning and nuance, so you can learn while you speak. I guide conversations with thoughtful questions based on your interests. Otaku topics like games, anime, and manga are always welcome! ✅ My strengths ・Context & nuance beyond small talk ・Clear explanations in English ・Supportive, inclusive lessons for all levels 🙏 Not a good fit if… ・You mainly want joke-heavy conversation ・You’re looking for the cheapest lessons ⚠️ Notice ・Lesson availability may change because I travel often. ・Lesson prices are subject to change without notice. ✅ Feedback I usually use recasts instead of interrupting. Example: You: きのう、友達と「会います」(←wrong) Me: そうですか。きのう、友達と「会いました」(←correct)ね。 ✅ What I ask of students I’ll guide the conversation, but I expect active participation (no need to be perfect!). Don’t just stay quiet and wait for me to ask all the questions. A real conversation needs both sides to participate 😊

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.

5 years of full-time tutoring (JPN/RUS) ・Кому я подойду как репетитор? Всем тем, кто хочет изучать язык с нуля или со среднего уровня, а также тем, у кого японский - это необходимый язык для работы/учёбы в университете. Я также могу помочь с японским тем, кто хочет переехать в Японию и поступить в языковую школу, так как я сама прошла этот путь от 0 до уверенного владения языком. Who would I fit as a tutor? For those who want to learn the language from scratch/intermediate level, as well as for those who need Japanese for work/university studies. I can also help with Japanese for those who want to move to Japan or enroll in a language school because I have experienced that myself.

Not textbook Japanese - the Japanese you actually use Hi, I'm Yui! 👋 I'm learning English and Chinese myself, so I know both the excitement and the frustration of language learning. I have a 4-year university degree in Japanese language education, 3 years of teaching at a Japanese language school (since 2016), and 6 years of online teaching. Two things happen in every lesson, at every level. Patterns, not lists 📝 One pattern covers many sentences, so you are not memorizing. For beginners, I break verbs into 6 forms and 3 groups, with practice at every step. For intermediate and advanced learners, it is keigo, 〜んです, and the shapes that make you sound natural. Your own phrases 💬 What I hear most often is "I studied it, but I can't use it." So we collect the phrases you need - from your work, your trip, your interview - and I keep them in a spreadsheet that is yours. It grows every lesson. Then we use them in roleplay: a phone call, a hotel, meeting your neighbours, a job interview. Every 5 lessons I send you a one-page review of what you have built. My students right now are preparing for job interviews, studying for the JLPT, working in Japan, and starting from zero. The approach is the same - only the content changes. I'm a big anime fan 🎬 - Frieren, Blue Lock, Haikyu!!, Apothecary Diaries, Demon Slayer, Chiikawa - often watched in English or Chinese too. Lessons often turn into chats about what you are watching 😊 Let's make steady progress, and have fun doing it! ✨
