Learn Japanese with private Japanese teachers

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 living in Australia since 2016. I used to work as a nurse because I’ve always loved helping people. My hobbies are learning different languages and subjects, yoga, playing with animals, travelling. I thrive on making incremental progress toward my goals. My favourite phrase is “Practice makes perfect”—because it’s true! Nice to meet you, and I hope to see you soon in one of my lessons. またねー :) I’ve taught Japanese online for 3yrs, supporting learners of beginner levels. (Using Minna no Nihongo) My lessons use visual slides to explain practical Japanese in a clear and structured way. When needed, I also provide English explanations and examples to make everything easy to follow. Students often describe me as patient, encouraging, and easy to talk to. I personalize each lesson to match your pace and goals, so you can learn comfortably and confidently. Trial Lesson In our trial lesson, I will gently assess your Japanese level and understand what you want to achieve. I will also show you clear slides so you know exactly where we will begin. If you are complete beginner, you are start learning self-introduction. About My Lessons • We learn new vocabulary and how to use it naturally • If there are verbs, we review the verb conjugations together • We quickly review what you learned in the previous lesson • We learn new grammar step by step • We practice speaking using the new grammar and vocabulary

UK-based experienced teacher — personalised English-medium lessons, clear grammar, real confidence. Originally from Nagoya, Japan, I have over 13 years of professional experience teaching Japanese in the UK, mainly in higher education. I've taught at UK universities and corporate online language training service providers across all levels — from complete beginners to advanced degree students. I've taught students with many different goals: travel, exams, university study, and personal interest. I teach with patience and genuine empathy, and my aim is always to build your confidence alongside your skills. For over 10 years years, I also worked at a research institute specialising in Japanese arts and culture, where I organised public events and outreach activities. Through this work, I developed a deep interest in sharing Japanese culture with people from different backgrounds, something I enjoy bringing into my lessons as well. I'm currently learning Mandarin Chinese myself, so I truly understand the challenges and rewards of language learning — and I bring that empathy into every lesson. I'd love to support you on your Japanese learning journey! I specialise in beginner Japanese, focusing on building a solid grammar foundation and practical everyday conversation. I make grammar clear and manageable, without being overwhelming, always explaining the subtle nuances.

4+ Years | 4,000+ Lessons | Most methods teach you to read Japanese. Mine teach you to live it. You've bought bunch of textbooks. You've done the Duolingo streaks. And yet — the moment a real conversation happens, your mind goes blank. I KNOW that feeling. And I KNOW exactly why it happens. こんにちは! I'm Kana, from Kyoto 🍵 — Japan's ancient capital. I studied English all through school in Japan, then went abroad to the US and Canada. And when someone said "How's it going" — I froze. Completely. Not a single word came out. All those years of study. Gone in a second. I still remember the heat in my face. The way I looked at the floor. The voice in my head that said: maybe I'm just not good at this. That moment changed how I teach forever. Most Japanese language programs — even professional ones — use the same method Japan used on me: grammar and rules first, speaking later. In my lessons, you will never read a sentence like "Watashi wa shinbun wo yomimasu." — "I read the newspaper." Nobody says that. Nobody needs that. Because here's what I know after 4 years of teaching: language only sticks when it's connected to something real — a moment you've lived, a conversation you actually need, a feeling you want to express. My lessons start with your real life — the exact situations you are walking toward. The Izakaya. The family dinner. The workplace. We practice the conversations that actually matter to you, until they stop feeling like Japanese and start feeling like you. 📚Book a trial lesson. Tell me the moment you're most nervous about.That's exactly where we start.

You don’t need to be perfect—just relax and enjoy speaking Japanese 😊 I enjoy cooking, manga, anime, walking, and jogging (I especially love manga!).

My lessons combine natural conversation with clear notes and practical feedback, so you can build confidence and use Japanese in real situations. Whether you’re a beginner or working towards fluency, I adjust each lesson to your level, pace, and goals. I've taught students from many countries and backgrounds, and I believe there's no single "right" way to learn. That's why I focus on finding an approach that works best for you, keeping lessons supportive, practical, and motivating. Rather than relying on rigid textbooks, I prioritise real communication and useful expressions you can apply immediately. ⭐ Lesson styles 🌱 Beginner-Friendly Japanese (A1) ☕ Conversation Practice (A2–C2) 🗣️ Conversation + Notes (A2–C2) ✍️ Write First, Then Talk (B1–C2) Prefer flexibility? You can choose 30 or 45-minute sessions, or take lessons regularly or biweekly. Many students find this helps them stay consistent while balancing self-study.

I have over 20 years of experience in teaching Japanese. I majored in Japanese language education at my university. Since graduating from university, I have been teaching Japanese in China for three years and in Japan for over 17 years, including online. I love teaching Japanese. I can teach conversation, composition, kanji, test preparation, business Japanese, pronunciation, anything. I also have a YouTube "日本語まきちゃんねる". I am good at creating a Japanese study plan that suits your goals and level. I try to make it easy for you to understand and enjoy learning in class. 私は大学(日本語教育学)を卒業してから、中国で3年間、日本ではオンラインも含めて17年以上日本語を教えています。私は日本語を教えるのが大好きで、会話、作文、漢字、試験対策、ビジネス日本語、発音、何でも教えることができます。 私は学習者の目的やレベルに合った日本語学習を組み立てるのが得意です。授業ではわかりやすく、そして楽しく学べるように心がけています。

Having climbed the “mountain of fluency” in two foreign languages, I know exactly how hard and frustrating the journey can be, but I also know how rewarding and satisfying finally making it to the top is. To me, wrapping your head around a completely new way of thinking that often comes with achieving fluency in a language is one of the best feelings I know, and I want to share it with you. As someone with a strong background in science, my specialty is scientific communication and technical writing. I also think my experience in grappling with abstract scientific concepts has taught me to explain grammatical concepts and semantic nuances in a concise and easily understandable way.

Certified native Japanese teacher with over 15 years teaching experience (Conversation & JLPT Prep). I majored "Japanese language as foreign language" in my University. The course was designed for people who would like to teach Japanese to foreigners. It was great opportunity to meet foreign students who plan to be Japanese teachers in their countries. I could learn that commonsense makes sense only in where I grew up. Sharing ideas and knowledge for developing and enjoying our lives is the most wonderful thing. Of course "learning language" is a gate to know about other people who have different backgrounds. Would you like to share your ideas with me?
