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.

★ 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...

Hello all, Welcome to my profile!! My name is Takuya Noguchi and I was born and live in Tokyo. I mean I am native and standard Japanese speaker. So, you'll be able to learn beautiful Tokyo Japanese as a gift. One of my strengths as a Japanese teacher must be ”I am in Tokyo right now". I will be able to show you live Japanese life and culture ongoing. First, from my academic background, I completed 420hours of Japanese Teachers' Training Course in Tokyo, and MBA from UMASS in US. My teaching career of Japanese is about two years in fact, however, I am sure that my current business career must be useful for students who want to learn Japanese language definitely. My current work is a consultant of general food business, and simultaneously I am holding my own restaurants chain as a CEO in Tokyo, Japan. So, I especially would like to focus on business language if I can. My class will be able to enjoy together with me and you! Best regards. みなさま、こんにちは! 野口卓也と申します。東京で生まれ、現...

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.
