Hi everyone, I'm Mayumi. My friends and students call me May. I've been teaching Japanese for the past 10 years in Melbourne, Australia. (I am ranked in the top 1% Japanese teacher on italki 2022!) I worked as an Executive Assistant at one of the biggest gaming companies in Tokyo Japan for 8 years before coming to Melbourne. So I have excellent Japanese Business Skills such as Business manners, Business Japanese and Honorific Japanese. I am relaxed and very easy-going. In my spare time I like being in nature. I also like to explore town to discover good food. And love baking sourdough, this is one of the skills that I have developed during a lockdown in Melbourne 2020!

May先生 is truly an amazing teacher. Every lesson is consistent in quality and May’s ability to explain grammar (in all Japanese) in an easy-to-understand way is unmatchable! I struggled going through 新完全マスターN3 by myself and dropped it. With May先生, I not only have now finished the book, but also understood FAR more than I thought. My goal is the N2 test, so I’m excited to work with May to achieve my goal of N2 in 2024 :)! Thank you May and I can’t wait to see you in my next lesson!

先生のレッスンはとても専門的で、敬語の基本からビジネスでよく使える日本語を全部学ぶことができます。 おかげで、私は履歴書を完成することから面接を成功することをできました。 もし、日本企業で働きたい外国の方があれば、先生のレッスンをお勧めです! In May-Sensei's lessons, you can learn from the foundamental of the Honorific speech of Japanese to the phrases of Japanese for business purpose. Thanks to May-Sensei, I have successfully finished my Japanese resume and passed the interview. If you are a non-Japanese speaking person but would like to work in Japanese company, I strongly recommed May-Sensei's lessons to you!

Had an excellent first lesson! I explained my strengths, weaknesses, and goals, and May pretty much immediately gave me some options for styles of conversation practice we could do to fit my needs. She was also really able to tailor our practice to just a bit above my level so that it was challenging but not overwhelming, and her corrections were very clear. I think I can see myself improving with her lessons.

May Sensei is fantastic. She always adjusts her language in our classes to my level, so we can speak in only Japanese the whole time. And her explanations are still very clear.
