(Español abajo/Português em baixo) Hi, I'm Azumi from Yokohama, Japan. I can teach you Japanese in English, Spanish and Portuguese! I was born in Tokyo, raised in Yokohama and schooled in Vancouver, Canada. I have taught Japanese since 2004 in 3 different countries: Canada, Colombia and Brasil. I teach from beginner's levels to preps for Japanese Language Proficiency Exam (JLPT) levels N5-N1 or the exams for the scholarships offered by the Japanese Embassy, called MEXT. I have many students who have passed N1 and N2, won the MEXT scholarships and are studying or working in Japan! I also worked in Colombia as a Japanese-English-Spanish translator and interpreter for 10 years, mainly in international technical cooperation projects. The strength in my teaching is that I can explain Japanese grammar with comparisons to English, Spanish or Portuguese. When a student asks a question about Japanese, seldom do I say "because that's how it works". I can provide you a clear explanation for ev...

Japanese is NOT just about words and grammar—it’s about PERSPECTIVE, CULTURE, and the STORIES behind it all. Too often, language is taught like a formula, disconnected from its DEEPER meaning. That’s why it feels confusing, why the rules don’t stick, and why it stops being fun. Does this sound familiar? ① Not knowing where to start ② Particles! ③ Conjugations ④ て-form Without cultural and historical context, particles feel random, formalities rigid, and expressions meaningless. In my lessons, I’ll help you see why Japanese works the way it does. Once you understand the “WHY,” everything clicks. It’s not just a language—it’s a way to think, connect, and experience life. Teaching Japanese is not my work, it is my PASSION. It always makes me very happy when I meet people who are interested in my language. I tailor my lessons to suit you! I prepare each class according to your language needs as well as your interests and personality. Me as a Teacher: I specialize in helping ...

Hello! My name is Miwa, and my family home is on Sado Island, a small and beautiful island in Japan. My father’s family has been rice farmers there for over 200 years. It’s a peaceful village where people live close to nature, helping each other with rice and vegetable farming. Every year, the community holds a traditional festival at the local shrine to pray for a good harvest—one of the traditions I treasure deeply. Now I live in Auckland, New Zealand, where I experience very different cultures and values. Living abroad has deepened my appreciation for Japan, and I would love to share not only the Japanese language but also our daily life, culture, and values with you. I have been teaching Japanese for over 7 years, working with both beginners and advanced learners from all over the world. I offer one-on-one lessons and group classes, and I always tailor lessons to each student’s level, interests, and goals. For beginners, I use my own original materials to make learning easy a...

**Usually, the evening time slots(US Eastern time) would be taken by current students** こんにちはー! ようこそ、私の日本語クラスへ! Hello, welcome to my Japanese language course! I’m from Yokohama, one of the biggest cities in Japan, located on Tokyo Bay just South of Tokyo, so I speak and teach Tokyo dialect, also known as standard dialect. My major was English language and literature and I did my graduate thesis on intercultural communications. I also took ESL courses with several different professors over the years so I understand how hard it is to study different languages and I know what works. My methodology on language learning is a combination of immersive and traditional learning. The Japanese language requires a great amount of effort to master, but it becomes far easier if you use the language colloquially first, as children do. Language is like a jigsaw puzzle; it will become easier as you fill it in. I will help you learn through conversation, textbooks, and roleplay. I also can...

✨ LIMITED AVAILABILITY ✨ Hi there! Welcome to my (Kazukosan's) profile! Just imagine watching that anime without the subtitles. Simply spectacular! マジでいい! I believe strengthening listening comprehension skills is the key to navigate language with confidence. How would you communicate in Japanese (or any language for that matter), if you do not know what it sounds like? My passion is to assist my students to listen to the Japanese language through anime, movies, news clips, YouTube videos and help achieve their goals. The tools and techniques I have acquired over years are yours to use which, by the way, can be applied to learning other languages as well! I really want to help you out! May ALL your dreams come true! 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 I love to teach, so I home schooled my daughter. I taught her Japanese myself and my daughter has no problem communicating in Japanese. At 17 years old, she was able to venture out to Japan on her own. She ordered that Japan only ri...

★ Absolute Beginners Welcome!!! ★ Informal fun lessons tailored to suit every individuals. Never has learning Japanese been so enjoyable and achievable; ) All class material is provided. Hi Japanese learners! I am Chiaki, I was born and grew up in Japan, I have lived in Australia for a year and lived in the UK for the last 5 years. In the UK I gave private Japanese lessons to several British students. I enjoyed time with my students so much that I wanted to start to teaching online to meet more people in different countries. Have you ever experienced the situation where you have taken a phrase from a Japanese textbook and said it to a Japanese person and received only a confused look in response? Probably the reason is that textbooks tend to teach Japanese in an ultra-polite form. Those basics are very important to know but you also need to know the casual way to say things, as native speakers do, to make conversations flow. This is also necessary to understand what Jap...
