I’ve been teaching Japanese since 2020, mainly to:
* Complete beginners
* Travelers preparing for Japan

こんにちは。🌸 Konnichiwa! 🌸
Are you interested in the Japanese language/culture or planning to go to Japan? I am an experienced and qualified Japanese language teacher. I've been teaching the Japanese language as a second language since 2008. I studied English and am currently learning Italian, so I know exactly what the challenges (and rewards!) of learning languages are like. 👩🎓📕✏️
I love teaching as it is great to meet people, get to know different cultures, and it's amazing to see the students improve their Japanese language abilities and be able to communicate in Japanese.
A little bit about myself: I like playing video games & board games & card games, watching movies & anime, eating, and traveling. Also, I love my two Japanese Spitz. 🐶💖🐶
NOTE:
If you're interested in working with me, please book a 30-minute trial lesson first. Also, I would love to hear about your language goals (or anything else you think I should know), so feel free to send me a message when you book.
Please do ...

I was born in Japan and studied in Canada and USA.
When I was studying music in LA, I learned Brazilian music and a couple of years later I went to Brazil and met my husband.
I didn't know how to speak Portuguese at that time, I only knew how to sing in Portuguese, but from the very first day of Brazil I learned how to have fun and communicate with people without knowing much of the theory and vocabulary. It was just like how people learn jazz. There's a theory behind, but the most importantly we should feel and improvise. And to understand the theory, you first should listen, listen and listen.
So my learning and teaching method can be a little unique. It's not like the traditional way that we all know, which you read, write, and listen to the explanations, instead, I want you to feel it.
It's important to study and understand the grammar and try to memorize as much vocabularies as you can, but you can't forget to have fun, and you can't memorize things by just reading and thinkin...

✅Total beginner, Business, or Super Advanced? All levels are welcome! You can learn at your own pace.✅日本の教員免許を持っているので日本人の方には英語も教えています。Hi, I am Mika. I was born and bred in Japan but learned English in England and moved to Australia for work 23 yrs ago. I have got more than 3,000 hrs of online private teaching experience so far. I purely enjoy every single lesson and love talking with each and every student. They are all keen to learn and make me realise lots of new things. I am a teacher but at the same time, I learn lots from my students too. I love having one on one lessons since I can see the students' progress well and improve each student's weakness.
🌸I have travelled to 30 different countries. I love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I have been living away from Japan for many years now but I read and watch Japanese news and programs a lot daily so my Japanese is up to date (Our language is always updated with new vocabulary and expressions, it's quite...

Hello. I am from Yokohama. I am a qualified and native Japanese teacher. I am interested in languages and I studied linguistics at my university in London. I had been working as a speech therapist for 10 years in Japan.
I like to meet new people and teach Japanese. In my free time, I like to go to a cafe or park with friends. Also, I like travelling abroad.
<My teaching experience>
I have a postgraduate certificate to teach Japanese to non-native speakers. I have been working as a private teacher for ten years in London and Auckland. I have given lessons to various levels' learners , completely begginers to advanced, and students with special educational needs. Also, I often give lessons to students who plan to take JLPT.
I usually give one to one lessons but I also have experience to teach group-lessons.
<My aproach to lesson>
At first, I ask students how they would like to learn Japanese and what their aim to learn Japanese is. Then, I suggest how we could have lessons. We can ...

こんにちは。I'm a native Japanese speaker. I live in Osaka. I am a mother of 2 kids.
I attended Osaka University where I majored in Japanese teaching. In the university, I studied how to teach Japanese to foreign people. I think the most important thing is to relax and enjoy the lessons.
After graduating, I worked for a localization division of a Japanese Game Publisher in Osaka for a period of 13 years. My duties involved the translation (from English to Japanese) of in-game content and manual booklets for more than 100 games.
I understand there are many Japanese phrases that cannot be translated literally to your language. Also, Keigo (Honorific) may be complicating.
I'd like to think with you what is the best way to learn the language for you.
It may be to read Japanese manga (comic books), to watch Japanese movies, or to discuss some topics of Japanese newspapers.

Hey everyone, I’m Anna! I was born and raised in Japan. I’ve been teaching Japanese for a while now and I’d be happy to help you as well.
I lived in Canada for one year and had a lot of life-changing experiences there. I was amazed by how much Japanese culture (history, language, media, etc.) is appreciated around the world. That made me quite proud to be Japanese! Now, I want to help others understand the rich culture and language of Japan. The more words you learn in Japanese, the more you will be able to enjoy your visit to Japan! It will also become easier for you to understand Japanese news, film, and television.
I will help you improve your writing, listening, and speaking and am willing to work with beginner, intermediate, and advanced students. You’re welcome to talk with me about a variety of subjects: Japan, your hobbies, or anything else! I understand how stressful it can be to learn a new language, and I will work my hardest to provide an informative, engaging, yet rel...
