Desperately want to speak with locals? The journey is long, but I’ll guide you with fun and patience 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.

I was a game company worker! I'm a top 1% italki teacher who teaches real (&otaku/Vtuber) Japanese! I teach real, natural and practical Japanese in very effective ways. I don't use unnatural Japanese such as 私の名前は (watashino namae wa) ! So you will be able to speak like native speakers! If you need to use English in our lesson, we can do so. No worries! However, let's use Japanese as much as possible for your learning, of course. Feel free to ask me other requests and questions!

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!

15+ years’ experience training pronunciation, rhythm, and fluency for clear, natural speech. 1) I specialize in detailed pronunciation analysis and use targeted drills to correct pronunciation efficiently. With a sharp ear attuned to phonetic nuances, this approach helps beginner‑to‑advanced learners systematically improve their Chinese pronunciation and speaking rhythm. 2)I adapt the material to each student’s individual needs, so you can immediately apply what you’ve learned after every lesson. Grammar is presented in concise, clear language, and I employ a variety of engaging activities that encourage you to speak more confidently and fluently. 3)I’m very interested in teaching Chinese characters and am dedicated to making character instruction engaging and enjoyable.

🌸 Japanese accent is a combination of high and low pitches. 日本語のアクセントは、高低の組み合わせです🌸 As someone who shares the Japanese, I want to keep listening closely to each learner’s dedication. Beyond the time we share through this window, each person is walking their own quiet inner path. I hope to sit beside that unseen time, and together, gently cultivate a kind of shared field — a calm presence that holds us both. Through meditation, I’ve come to feel that this inner work is one of humanity’s most precious things, something meant to ripen slowly within us. And somehow, I trust that the universe remembers these things. I keep asking myself how I choose to sit here, how I choose to be. Reflecting, again and again, just letting us grow together, quietly. 𓅗 2026.01.18.

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!!

I have started teaching as a teaching assistant in Japanese classes when I was going to college. For the last 20 years, I've been helping new employees to get adjusted to their lives in Japan. Teaching basic Japanese was one of the support I was providing. I have helped my friends to pass JLPT. I have also supported foreign tourists as a volunteer guide in Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima. Therefore, I am confident that I can support beginner level students well. I love seeing their smiles when they were able to use the language that they learned with locals. That’s the best thing when you are learning a new language. We will talk a lot in my class. That's the best way to gain confidence.
