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.

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...

★ 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...

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 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...

Hi, everyone! I'm Chie and I'm a native Japanese speaker. Are you interested in Japanese culture, food, TV shows or history?? I've taught Japanese for beginners, intermediate and advance students alike for 5 years, so if you are just starting out don't worry. My lesson is focused on conversation so that students have a chance to interact through verbal communication and participate in the learning of a new language, as well as, have fun in our class. I look forward to having the privilege of helping to introduce a new culture, as well as, the experience of learning a new language to you.

Do you feel anxious, nervous, or worried when learning Japanese? Many learners carry a lot of anxiety when studying a new language. I understand those feelings, and you never need to hide them in my lessons. I am a patient and friendly teacher who will explain things as many times as you need, until you truly understand and feel comfortable. There is no pressure, no rushing, and no fear of making mistakes. I make sure you always feel safe, supported, and confident while speaking Japanese. My lessons are ideal for learners who want to study calmly, feel understood, and build real confidence step by step.

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 ...
