Japan-Teacher-TAKA
For Business Professionals - A specialist in teaching practical Japanese for business success. I previously taught over 1,500 students in Tokyo and helped many of them realize their potential through my original learning methods. This success led me to establish 18 schools, which I operated for 14 years. Alongside my work in education, I have shared my views on topics such as education, child development, business, and entrepreneurship through university lectures, media appearances, and publications. 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.

RYOTA
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.

Takeshi Spada
Entertaining Japanese! I've been professionally teaching Japanese for about three years. My specialties are casual Japanese and teaching phrases that only native speakers use! I help my students avoid directly translating things, as this often results in creating unnatural expressions (E.g When we hang out and friends look a bit bored, we don't say "Are you bored? We say "Do you wanna do something different? (何か違うことする?)in Japanese). Also, I break down common formal Japanese expressions and explain how you can make casual phrases with them. So that you can see the difference and pick proper expressions when you speak or write!

Ippei (いっぺい、一平)
Friendly &Flexible. にほんごをまなぼう、にほんごでまなぼう。 During my time in America, as a Teaching Assistant, I was teaching ‘history of cinema’ and practical ‘basic filmmaking ‘ to American college students. Also, I joined activities to teach Japanese culture and language to people. Since my returning to Japan, I have had many opportunities to interact with many local people from all over the world when I visit abroad for my job of movie making. Throughout these experiences, I have been feeling keenly about “the joy and difficulty of verbal communication. With this kind of experience, I can support and lead each student to learn Japanese language.

I do not teaching you, but do COACHING you as a native speaker and a language learner as well. A lot of people just study in solitude. But there's a huge gap between studying alone and actually speaking to a native speaker or somebody else. I consider myself is a friendly and patient coach (not a teacher^^), always trying to encourage learners to speak and practice more. Language is a skill, every skill is acquired through practice instead of other's TOO MUCH explanation. And now, I'm here ready to support & assist your study!

Customized lesson for your ideal goal(15+ years experience for teaching Japanese) A true ハリポタ世代, I can make lessons alive with pop culture like music,anime, manga. Not only that kind of things, JNPT and business speaking are also my professional filed---That’s why I can flexibly customize the lesson based on your request. I have been engaged with teaching Japanese since my high school days. My first teacher experience was volunteer for New comer class in language center. Learning together with new comers for 3 years; basically Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji and daily conversation. In my university days, I was a support teacher in International School; teaching culture and training for pronunciation. Letters in Japanese from students are one of most precious things in my life.

Maco
I'm here for beginners :) I use textbook GENKI and irodori. I was a school teacher for several years so I've learned to teach live people and not just through the computer. I teach not only adults but children too! I have taught 7 year old kids who did not speak Japanese at all when we began. We started from Hiragana and worked up to words and sentences. I love teaching all levels, so of course beginners are welcome! I have textbooks allowing us to crossed between book based lessons and speaking lessons. But if you want to be fluent in Japanese, you should learn with textbook, and learn Japanese language! I'll teach you how to speak in a real conversational manner and not the formal helpful but not natural conversation method used by textbooks.
