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!

My mother-tongue is Korean. But I've learned English, Japanese and Chinese. So I truly understand how difficult learning languages is. I'm very positive, patient and enthusiastic. And I prepare each lesson only for A student. For example, if a student has a tendency to make mistakes using the present perfect, I usually prepare more focused lessons that he or she can repeatedly practice using the present perfect. I believe you could learn more through the mistakes that you make. And I will be there for you to correct or coach whenever you need it. You are going to be very very proud of yourself in the end. Let's have fun learning!!

certified japanese teacher ★Beginners Friendly ★The lesson content has been redesigned. It is natural to not know where to start or how to learn any language at first! I have taught many beginner classes and I always tell my students that Japanese is not difficult. I also try to create an atmosphere where it is easy for students to say they don't understand what they don't understand.

I've been teaching Japanese for 6 years. I've been teaching Japanese for six years. When I was a student, I worked as a tutor and cram school instructor for English and mathematics. I also volunteered for four years reading to students in the morning at an elementary school and worked in after-school childcare. I was a member of a Japanese language club as part of a city volunteer activity. The ages of my students range from 9 to 70 years old. I’m very happy to receive feedback from students who enjoy my lessons. I like to hear about their success in passing JLPT N3, and hear from those who are working hard to aim for N1.

I specialize in conversation practice! I also provide Youtube videos of Japanese conversation. Outside of lesson time, I'll introduce you to videos and materials for self-study. A lot of self-study is necessary for beginners who have just started to be able to speak quickly. I'll encourage you and help you while you study on your own! Let's make the lesson time a time to use what you've memorized! If there's something you don't understand, I'll explain it to you. Above all, what I value most in lessons is enjoying conversation. When you speak in your native language, do you make more jokes? Even though it's a lesson, let's talk casually in Japanese just like when you speak in your native language. Casual conversation is also welcome, not just the polite "desu, masu" style!

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!
