I was raised and educated in Japan but now live in Vietnam. I regularly use Vietnamese with my colleague, subordinates and counterparts and sometimes communicate with customers around the world in English. Each language is unique in its own way, but don't think too hard about it, just start a conversation by using the words you know and saying them out loud.

So I understand how to teach a language and motivate my students. I have learnt several different languages in my life as well so I know that learning a new language is challenging but also is so much fun. So Don’t worry if you are a complete beginner. I’m happy to help you begin this fun journey!

ニュージーランド、韓国、中国の3か国で日本語を教えてきました。 ニュージーランドで初めて日本語を教えたのをきっかけに、日本語教師になるための勉強をしました。 その後、平日は会社員として働き、週末は大学内にある国際交流ラウンジでボランティアをしていました。 日本語を教えることは、沢山の勉強をしなくてはいけないのでとても大変ですが、学習者の方々が一生懸命に日本語を学んでくれること、日本語に関心を持ってくれることが何よりも励みになり、私も楽しくレッスンすることが出来ます。 After teaching Japanese for the first time in New Zealand, I studied to become a Japanese teacher. Teaching Japanese is very difficult because I have to study a lot, but it is most important for the students to learn Japanese hard and to be interested in Japanese. It is encouraging and I can enjoy the lessons. 뉴질랜드에서 처음으로 일본어를 가르친 것을 계기로 일본어 교사가 되기 위한 공부를 했습니다. 일본어를 가르치는 것은 공부를 많이 해야돼서 매우 힘들지만 학생분들이 열심히 일본어를 배우는 것 일본어에 관심을 가져주는 것이 무엇보다도 격려가 되고 저도 즐겁게 레슨할 수 있습니다.

My mother-tongue is Korean. But I've learned English, Japanese and Chinese. So I truly understand how difficult learning languages is. I'm very positive, patient and enthusiastic. And I prepare each lesson only for A student. For example, if a student has a tendency to make mistakes using the present perfect, I usually prepare more focused lessons that he or she can repeatedly practice using the present perfect. I believe you could learn more through the mistakes that you make. And I will be there for you to correct or coach whenever you need it. You are going to be very very proud of yourself in the end. Let's have fun learning!!

Fun and Casual Japanese conversation lessons I am friendly, patient, easy to talk to, and a good listener. I have a neutral accent, which I think is easy to understand. As a community tutor, I will be focusing on improving students' Japanese through natural, informal conversation, rather than teaching grammar etc. I would like to make our lessons a fun and safe place...there is no need to feel shy or embarrassed if you are struggling with anything. I like to remind students of their progress and help them keep motivated rather than let them worry about making mistakes. まちがいをきにしないで、たのしく、たくさんはなしましょう!

■NEW■ We will use a new teaching material "Irodori" in our beginners course. Let's start studying! I became a certified Japanese teacher in 2014. Since then, I have gained a lot of experience teaching including at a language school in Mexico, and more recently online (italki). Now I work at a language school in my hometown, in addition to italki. I love sharing my passion for learning languages and helping my students improve. I have met several excellent students on italki, and I think that by getting to know each other over time, we can personalize your classes. 私は2014年に日本語教師の資格をとりました。それからメキシコの語学学校をはじめ、オンラインで教えるなど多くの経験を積んできました。 今は italki のほか、札幌の語学学校でも日本語を教えています。 私は言語学習に対する情熱を共有し、生徒たちの上達を手助けすることが大好きです。italki でも素晴らしい生徒たちと出会いましたが、時間をかけてお互いを知ることで、レッスンをカスタマイズしていけると思います。

Frequently asked questions about online Japanese classes

At italki, you can easily find the right Japanese teacher for you by using our search filters. You can filter teachers by their experience level, teaching style, availability, and even their location. We recommend taking a trial lesson with a few different teachers to see which one you feel most comfortable with and whose teaching style best matches your learning goals. During the trial lesson, you can ask the teacher about their teaching methods, experience, and availability. You can also check their profile for reviews from previous students to get an idea of their teaching effectiveness. Ultimately, finding the right Japanese tutor online is a personal decision, and it’s important to find someone you feel comfortable with and who can help you achieve your language learning goals.

Yes, the Japanese lessons offered by italki are suitable for beginners. In fact, many of the teachers specialize in teaching Japanese to beginners. They use a variety of teaching methods and materials to ensure that students with no prior knowledge of Japanese can learn effectively. For example, teachers may use textbooks, audio and video materials, and other resources to help students develop their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Additionally, some teachers may offer specialized courses that are designed specifically for beginners, such as introductory courses that focus on basic grammar and vocabulary. Regardless of your level of Japanese proficiency, italki offers a wide range of classes and teachers to help you achieve your language learning goals.

Yes, you can learn Japanese at your own pace with italki. Our online Japanese courses are designed to accommodate all levels of learners, including beginners, intermediate learners, and advanced learners. You can choose a Japanese teacher who is specialized in teaching Japanese to beginners if you are just starting out.

One of the biggest advantages of learning Japanese with italki is that you can set your own pace for learning. Unlike traditional language classes where you have to follow a fixed syllabus and pace, with italki, you can choose how many classes you want to take each week and how long you want to study. You can also choose to take a break from classes whenever you need to and come back to them when you are ready.

Additionally, with italki, you have the flexibility to choose the type of classes that suit your learning style and pace. You can choose one-on-one lessons or group classes, and you can choose to focus on specific areas of the language, such as speaking, listening, reading, or writing. This allows you to learn Japanese at your own pace and focus on the areas that are most important to you.

At italki, we understand that sometimes schedules can change, and we make it easy to reschedule or cancel your Japanese lessons. You can contact your teacher directly to reschedule a lesson if you need to. Please note that if you need to reschedule or cancel a lesson, you should do so at least 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for the lesson. If you cancel a lesson within 24 hours of the scheduled time, you will be charged for the lesson.

If you need to cancel a lesson for an emergency or unexpected event, please contact italki support as soon as possible to explain the situation. Our support team will work with you and your teacher to find a suitable solution.

It’s important to remember that building a good relationship with your Japanese teacher is key to success in your language learning journey, so open communication is encouraged.

At italki, there are multiple payment methods available for online Japanese lessons. You can pay using credit cards, PayPal, Alipay, or other methods depending on your location. To pay for a lesson, you need to purchase italki credits, which can then be used to pay for the lessons you take. The cost of each lesson depends on the teacher’s rate and the length of the lesson. Once you have enough credits, you can book a lesson with your chosen Japanese teacher and pay for it using your credits. After the lesson, your credits will be deducted based on the length of the lesson. You can also set up automatic payments so that you don’t need to manually purchase credits each time you book a lesson. It’s a simple and secure way to pay for online Japanese lessons on italki.
