Trusted teacher: Hello, my name is Emi. I live in Tokyo and work in an office while also teaching Japanese. I majored in Economics at university and have over 20 years of experience working in back-office roles. Along the way, I enrolled in an art university and completed a master’s program in art studies while working. After working as a part-time university lecturer, I am currently writing my doctoral dissertation. About My Lessons Drawing on what I’ve learned through my professional experience and academic background, I offer practical and personalized lessons tailored to each learner’s needs. I provide lessons mainly in Japanese, but I can also support learners in English when necessary. You can feel relaxed and enjoy the learning process at your own pace. ◆Conversation Lessons: From Small Talk to Office Communication Target: Learners who want to improve their conversational skills in natural Japanese Content: Small talk, workplace interactions, phone and email communication, polite expressions, and selecting appropriate language depending on the situation, etc. In Japanese, honorifics and expressions vary subtly based on context and the relationship(level of familiarity or social distance) with the listener. My lessons help you naturally master these nuances by exploring the cultural values and thought patterns behind the language, while practicing realistic conversations. ◆Lessons Using the ‘GENKI’ Textbook Practice Sections Target: learners who being studing with GENKI or who want to review. Content: Adapted practice sections that are often difficult to tackle alone, focusing on sentence patterns and other grammar points. The goal is to reinforce what you have learned and help you use it confidently in conversation. ◆Reading Comprehension Lessons (News Articles / Novels / Essays, etc.) Target: Learners who want to deepen their understanding of written Japanese and enhance vocabulary and expression Content: Using authentic Japanese texts such as news articles, novels, and essays, we work on vocabulary, grammar, and contextual understanding to improve reading comprehension. You will also develop the ability to interpret cultural nuances and implied meanings, and engage in discussions to enhance your critical thinking and expressive skills. ◆Academic Japanese Target: University or graduate students, or those who need to prepare presentations or read and write papers ※For more details, please feel free to contact me. Lastly, a Few Words About My Approach to Teaching Japanese Having studied English and Spanish myself, I deeply appreciate the complexity and subtlety of Japanese expressions and culture. Japanese reflects unique cultural values and ways of thinking, and direct translations are often insufficient. By learning the cultural and contextual background behind expressions, you can achieve more natural and precise communication beyond just knowing vocabulary and grammar. Therefore, my lessons emphasize sharing the cultural nuances behind the language. This approach makes communication in Japanese more enjoyable and meaningful. Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to contact me.!!

Trusted teacher: Hi! I’m Yuka, native Japanese. I was born and raised in Kyushu (south part of Japan) and now living in Osaka. I studied in Canada when I was a university student so English is available. If you are a beginner, I recommend studying Japanese in your language. (or the language you can understand well) If you go to a Japanese school in Japan, it's basically teaching in Japanese even for beginners and teachers don't understand English but I think that's not efficient. Of course, I try to make you use Japanese as much as you can because speaking is the most important thing. In my lesson, you get many opportunities to practice speaking! Now English is only available for my lesson but I'm studying Chinese and German so hopefully I will use them as well in the future! 中級者なら日本語でレッスンしますが、英語で質問しても大丈夫です。Once you start to speak Japanese, Japanese people just say "日本語上手ですね" and nobody corrects your Japanese even if you make many mistakes, so I can teach you proper Japanese for the intermediate level. I also have a license of teaching Japanese calligraphy, so if you're interested we can also have a class of it. きれいな文字や習字に興味がある人は、ぜひ! I also study other languages so I can understand how you feel. That's why I can be flexible for you, even in the middle of the lesson, you can always suggest things(what you wanna study, how you wanna study, etc...), then we can make the perfect lesson for you :) Please don’t hesitate to contact me. The best way to learn a new language is to speak and practice! Let’s enjoy our conversation! I’m looking forward to becoming your tutor and helping you with your learning experience :) We can meet face-to-face in cafes if you live in Kansai area(Osaka 大阪, Kobe 神戸, Hyogo 兵庫, Kyoto 京都). I usually have lesson in Umeda 梅田. Let me know if you have a preferred learning method/ textbook.

Trusted teacher: Hello! If you are looking for a FUN and EFFECTIVE Japanese tutor, I am here for you! I can help you to improve your speaking, listening, reading and writing skills for all level of JLPT with many textbooks and materials. After you provide me your goal and request, I will customize a lesson for you. Or, if you just want to know travel Japanese, I will teach you the most useful phrases with cultural background and fun websites. Understanding something and being able to do the thing are totally different things. After you understand meanings or grammar points, I will assist you to reach the point that you can actually use it to express yourself in Japanese. Repetition is the key for learning language but it should be fun so that you can keep up motivation. That's why I am here for you until you can actually use Japanese to communicate with other people. Even JLPT doesn't have speaking test, improving communication skill in Japanese will boost your score to the next level. I will provide you reasonable homework each time, for example : Writing diaries or essays in Japanese, Kanji practice, etc. And I have a PhD and have been a Japanese tutor for American students in the US for years. Additionally, I have six years of experience in Japanese public schools and lived in many cities in Japan. We can share many unique Japanese culture that I experienced and studied in Japan, too. I love to talk to new people and share different perspectives and experiences to each other. Do you want to improve your speaking and communicating skills in Japanese? Please contact me and let's talk and learn Japanese together!!!
