I have been teaching Japanese to foreigners for two years. I am good at free conversation using natural Japanese and sharing kanji and Japanese culture. After the lesson, you can provide feedback and ask questions. Focus on your desired lesson style. For example, you can role-play traveling to Japan and ordering at a restaurant, use text, or write Japanese and English in a notebook to carefully explain Japanese. I am particularly good at everyday conversation, business conversation, Japanese culture, kanji, and calligraphy. We can also teach dialects from the Kansai and Shikoku regions. Thank you for your interest in me! Let's have fun learning Japanese together! We will discuss the lessons you would like to take in advance and create a custom-made lesson just for you. I will conduct a survey in advance and try to ensure that there are no discrepancies between your requests and my classes.

*** ENGLISH *** こんにちは! Welcome to my class! This class is tailored for learners of Japanese studying this language at school, people preparing for the beginner's level Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT N4-N5), or simply anyone who has already got a firm command of the basics and wants to take their skills to the next level. All learning materials are provided. *** 日本語 *** こんにちは!「やさしい日本語を勉強しましょう」へようこそ! このコースは 日本語学生・日本語能力試験(JLPT N4/5)の受験生・レベルアップを希望している人に向いています。 教科書はすべて提供されます。 よろしくお願いします!

Konnichiwa! I am a native Japanese born in Yokohama, a city neighboring Tokyo, and I currently live in Geneve, Switzerland. I am fluent in both English and Japanese, and I plan to use both languages in my Japanese lessons. In my lessons, I focus on tailoring the content to each student’s goals and proficiency level. I use structured materials like “Minna no Nihongo” or "Genki" to build a solid foundation, while also including real-life conversation practice to help students learn Japanese they can actually use. It is challenging to explain grammar to young learners (ages 5 or 6 and above), so I use pictures and realia to conduct lessons. I learned this method through Association of Japanese Language for Children (AJLC) and hold a qualification as a Japanese language instructor for children. My goal is to create lessons that are fun and motivating, while also helping students see real progress in their Japanese skills! Learning a new language may be tough, but I also know it expands our world. I look forward to embarking on this adventure with everyone who wants to learn Japane.

[ABOUT ME] I’m Ryota, a native Japanese speaker living in Yokohama, and I’m here to help you learn Japanese in a fun and practical way. With strong English skills and a deep understanding of what it’s like to learn a second language, I can guide you through the tricky parts and make the process smoother. [ABOUT THE SESSIONS] Our sessions are going to be tailored to your particular goals and interests. If you’re a beginner, we’ll start with easy conversations or watching and discussing videos in Japanese. That way I can help you get used to the rhythm and flow of Japanese. If you’re a more advanced learner, perhaps preparing for the JLPT, we can review past exams together and focus on polishing your grammar and vocabulary to get you ready. I’m also well-versed in Japanese traditions and culture—including anime and manga—so we can easily incorporate those into our lessons if they interest you. And if you’ve recently moved to Japan or are planning to, I can share insights and practical tips to help you navigate life here. (I’ve got plenty of expat friends and know the drill!) If you’re looking for a supportive, chill tutor to guide you on your Japanese journey, I’d love to help. Let’s make learning Japanese an exciting and enjoyable experience together!
