Risa
🌸Certified Native Teacher | English Support Available🌸 My lessons are designed to be a "safe space" where you can make as many mistakes as you need to—that’s how we improve day by day! Learning languages truly changed my life. It became a lifelong hobby, gave me the opportunity to live abroad, and allowed me to connect with amazing people worldwide. Having passed the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test, I started teaching with the hope that Japanese can open similar doors for you. I personally understand both the excitement of learning and the frustration of not being able to express your thoughts clearly. My goal is to support you so you can stay motivated and enjoy your Japanese journey every step of the way!

Sam
Polyglot and TEFL-certified teacher with 6 years of teaching experience I teach English conversation to intermediate and advanced students, during which I make careful suggestions as to how students can improve the grammatical accuracy and idiomatic appropriateness of their spoken English. My strong understanding of Russian has enabled me to help many Russian-speakers in particular. I have heard every mistake Russians can make in English! I also have a special interest in phonetics and phonology. I have a postgraduate education in this subject, and particularly enjoy working on pronunciation. Students looking for detailed feedback on their pronunciation should feel free to contact me.

AKI | N1/N2 Reading
JLPT N1/N2 Reading Strategy|Structured Exam Preparation My teaching style is analytical, structured, and goal-oriented. Students say I explain grammar clearly, but what makes my lessons different is the strategy training for JLPT reading. We don’t just read. We break down the structure of the text. We learn how exam questions are created. We practice solving efficiently. Advanced Japanese is abstract and layered. I teach you how to navigate that complexity. Mistakes are welcome — they are clues to improve your score.

Moto Happy Tutor
Structure is 99%, but It’s Context That Makes It Real—Miss the Context, Miss the Meaning! I specialize in helping ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS to intermediate learners who feel STUCK or don’t know WHERE TO START. My lessons are LOGICAL and STRUCTURED, breaking Japanese into manageable pieces to build your confidence step by step. I know the struggles—particles, conjugations, て forms—but I’ll show you not just “what” to use, but “WHY” it works. My focus is on real-world applications: mastering casual conversations, expressing opinions, and understanding cultural nuances. Every mistake is a stepping stone. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and always tailored to your unique learning style.

Aki
Learn Japanese for fun with a tutor who explains like a Japanese friend I've taught students from many countries and levels. I believe everyone learns differently, so I like to adjust my style and try different approaches until we find what works best for you. My aim is to keep lessons supportive, practical, and motivating.
