I’ve been deeply inspired by the passion of every learner I’ve met here—each one genuinely strives to become proficient in Japanese. I want to support that dedication by helping you transform how you study and approach language learning.

Japanese for learners who want more than just “correct” Japanese. My goal is to help learners move from “correct Japanese” to natural, trustworthy Japanese through practical conversation practice. focus on discourse-level conversation, with an emphasis on expanding expressions and vocabulary. Rather than focusing only on grammatical accuracy, we practice choosing appropriate expressions based on context, relationship, and situation, using realistic conversations. With my background working at a bank, I also offer business Japanese lessons, including interview preparation, professional communication, honorifics, business etiquette, and entry form review.

Would you like to learn FLUENT JAPANESE from "1 of Top 1% JAPANESE teachers of italki in 2022" ? DO YOU WANT TO BE A FLUENT JAPANESE SPEAKER? Grammar lessons with "NO text books!" Many pictures and examples are used to make you think and make sentences in Japanese! You will get a bunch of opportunities to speak and listen to Japanese, and that makes you become a NATURAL JAPANESE SPEAKER! You will learn Japanese language, Japanese way of thinking and culture in my lessons :) I believe if you only master Japanese language but you don't understand its culture and people, it doesn't mean anything. The most fun part of learning language is to understand different culture and people. For you, the happiest moment would be sharing laughter with Japanese people by using your own Japanese!
