Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

Patient & structured Japanese lessons for beginners | Speak with Japanese & connect with Japan 🌸 Hi, I’m Chihiro—a native Japanese speaker from Nagasaki, living in Australia since 2016. Before starting my teaching journey, I worked as a nurse for many years. Supporting people, listening with empathy, and making others feel comfortable have always been at the heart of what I do. I bring that same patient, caring approach into every single Japanese lesson. Who I Teach I specialize exclusively in teaching adult learners (beginners to lower-intermediate). My lessons are specifically designed for adults who: -Want to speak naturally with their Japanese family members, spouse, or in-laws. -love Japanese culture, history, or language and wish to learn thoroughly. -Appreciate a calm, respectful, and steady learning environment. -Value continuous, long-term progress over quick shortcuts. My Teaching Style & Lessons -Learning a new language as an adult takes time and courage. I aim to provide a safe, encouraging space where you can ask questions freely and learn without pressure. -Structured & Visual: I use clear visual slides and structured materials -Clear English Support: Whenever you feel stuck, I provide clear English explanations so you understand the "why" behind the grammar. A Little About Me Outside teaching, I love learning new languages and subjects, practicing yoga, spending time with animals, and traveling. I truly believe that consistent, quiet effort leads to wonderful results—“Practice makes perfect” is my daily motto! I look forward to meeting you in class!

✈️ Travel Japanese | 🌱 Beginners | 🎈 Kids Welcome | 💼 Business Japanese Practical, friendly Japanese for real-life communication— online and in real workplaces in Japan. I've lived abroad for almost 20 years, in Australia, India, and Myanmar, so I know what it feels like to be lost in a language you don't understand yet. That's where my passion for teaching began — teaching Japanese online to children in Myanmar during the pandemic, and seeing how language can be a lifeline, not just a skill. 📌 What makes my lessons different: I don't just teach "textbook Japanese." I teach the Japanese you'll actually use — at a restaurant, on a train, at the shop, or on your first day at a Japanese workplace. I call this "Real-Life Japanese." I've taught students everything from travel basics to everyday conversation — always practical, real-world Japanese you can use right away. 🗣️ I can explain grammar and nuance in English or Spanish, so even complete beginners never feel lost. I'll match your pace and comfort level. Whether you want to: ✈️ Travel around Japan with confidence 🚀 Start Japanese from zero 💼 Prepare for work or business in Japan — keigo, business etiquette, and workplace communication (proven experience teaching N3-level professionals) 💬 Have real, natural conversations ...I'll build lessons that get you there. My goal isn't just to teach Japanese — it's to help you feel confident, connect with people, and open new doors through language. Looking forward to meeting you in a trial lesson!

Hi! I’m Haru(はる) from Japan. I’m a certified Japanese language teacher. I’ve taught more than 5,000 Japanese lessons. My lessons are mainly free conversation for learners who want to keep using and improving their Japanese. We can talk about everyday life, work, Japanese culture, news, hobbies, or anything you’re interested in.

I also run my own company in Japan, so I’m happy to talk about work, business, and communication in Japanese as well. During our conversations, I can correct your Japanese when necessary and suggest more natural expressions. My lessons are relaxed and flexible. You don’t need to prepare anything. Just come and talk! If you can’t find a suitable time on my schedule, please feel free to send me a message. Since I work from home and my schedule is flexible, I may be able to open another time slot for you. Please note that I may not be able to accept bookings made less than 12 hours in advance. I’m looking forward to talking with you!
