Sachiko
Certified Japanese Teacher for Anime Fans – Learn with a Pro! Since I was a university student, I have studied various languages such as Chinese, Korean. Therefore, I understand your difficulties in learning Japanese. I ’m a language learner too. English is a language that I have been studying for a long time. I respect people who can speak English or any other language that I have studied. I think it is hard to control your motivation, especially when you are learning a language that isn't much of an opportunity to use in a daily life. But the most important thing is enjoy learning. I will listen to your interests and do my best to include as much as possible in the teaching materials. So, please tell me a lot about yourself in the first lesson!

mook from Tokyo
A tutor who loves Manga & Anime and watches over 200 international films every year Having lived in New York, USA for eight years, I am comfortable communicating in most types of English. In addition, my deep knowledge of anime, manga, and film allows me to understand and engage with youth slang and pop culture references. I am also confident discussing topics that many Japanese teachers tend to avoid, such as politics and economics. I can help students prepare for the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test), and I offer flexible study approaches—not only using textbooks like Minna no Nihongo and Genki, but also incorporating learning apps and digital tools to suit individual learning styles.

"The time for action is now. It's never too late to do something." Antoine de Saint Exupéry <English>***日本語下にあります I have struggled enough before being able to communicate fluently with English speakers! So I understand how you can learn and practice different languages while you are enjoying the process of learning. Besides being able to speak English, understanding and embodying different cultures are a whole another level. However, I have been exposed to people with different cultures and taken leadership in a global environment as a professional. I am very confident of teaching Japanese in English and vise versa. <日本語> 英語で流暢に意思疎通ができるまで本当に苦労しました。なので異なる言語をどのように勉強し練習しつつ、学ぶ過程の楽しさも身をもって感じています。英語で話せること以上に、違う文化を理解し体現することはとても難しいですが、グローバルな環境に触れ、リーダーシップの経験を活かし自信をもって英語と日本語の授業をお教えいたします。
