Learn Japanese Through Your Story|Conversation-Focused|Australia & 5-Star Hospitality Speak First. Fluency Follows. You don't become fluent before you speak. You become fluent because you speak. This is the philosophy behind my lessons. Hi! I'm Ryo and I've taught over 600 online Japanese lessons to students from around the world. My lessons focus on real conversation, not just textbooks. Instead of memorizing dialogues, we'll talk about our life, your work, hobbies, travel, dreams, and daily experiences so you learn Japanese you can actually use. Don't worry about making mistakes. Most Japanese people care more about what you want to say than perfect grammar. My goal is to create a relaxed environment where you can speak with confidence. Personalized AI Review After Every Lesson Learning doesn't stop when the lesson ends. After each lesson, I create personalized review materials using my own AI system, including lesson notes, vocabulary, grammar, and practice exercises, so you can keep improving between lessons. I've also worked in Tokyo's IT industry and in multicultural workplaces in Australia, so I can support you in English whenever needed. If you want to: ✅ Speak Japanese naturally and confidently ✅ Enjoy traveling or living in Japan more ✅ Learn with lessons designed just for you I'd love to help you on your Japanese journey. Let's enjoy learning Japanese together!
Beginner‑friendly Japanese lessons with clear English grammar support to help you speak confidently Hi, I’m Chihiro—a native Japanese speaker from Nagasaki, now based in Australia. With a background as a nurse, I genuinely enjoy supporting people as they learn and grow. I specialize in helping adult beginners start their Japanese journey with confidence. My lessons are friendly, clear, and always tailored to your needs—especially if you appreciate step-by-step explanations in English. Outside teaching, I love learning new languages, practicing yoga, traveling, and spending time with animals. I believe that steady progress leads to real results—“Practice makes perfect” is my motto! If you’re looking for a patient, encouraging teacher who understands the challenges of starting something new, I’d love to help you reach your Japanese goals. Looking forward to meeting you soon! またねー :)

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.

October calendar is fully open! Let's start your journey together! Arigato for visiting my profile! I specialize in helping students speak natural, everyday Japanese - the kind you won't find in textbooks! Having worked at a bank in Tokyo, I can also teach practical business phrases. As someone who's lived both in Japan (with that perfect Fuji view!) and the UK, I love bridging cultures through language. My own ongoing English journey since 2012 reminds me how exciting (and challenging!) language learning can be. You can be self taught, but you will realize how a language in actual communication can be totally different than in textbooks. (maybe anime too😅) If you'd like to master a language and be comfortable with communicating in another language, you can't escape from the steps of learning and understanding the culture. It helps you a lot for better communication for sure! Although you can easily collect information on the internet, you wouldn't know if that's true or not until you actually experience by talking to local people or visiting the country. And i am here to help you improve your Japanese and answer your questions/curiosity about Japan! I can possibly be your tour guide in Japan! we can just talk about literally ANYTHING just like talking to your friend :) You don't need to be nervous to practice/speak in Japanese at all. Just take your time and make a lot of mistakes with me, that's how you learn a language. Looking forward to talking to you and helping your Japanese learning journey!
