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...

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 adjust to your individual needs and preferences.
I worked for a Japanese travel comp...

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...

We will also have a conversation using the grammar we learned in the previous lessons. My lessons cover all Reading, Writing, ...

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...

For beginners, I teach Hiragana and Katakana using Google Jamboard, PDF and PTT. After that, I use a textbook 'Genki' and teach you sentence structure and grammar. I often use audio resources in order that you can get used to normal conversation speed and intonation. I also adopt Shadowing method.
*Shadowing is a practice method in which a person listens to the audio and follows immediately what s/he hears, like a ‘shadow’ as faithfully as possible by voicing it. Unlike repeating exercises where a person listen to the audio and repeats it as at his/her own pace.
