I'm a qualified teacher who loves anime! Ally Since I was a university student, I have studied various languages such as Chinese, Korean. Therefore, I understand your difficulties in learning Japanese. I ’m a language learner too. English is a language that I have been studying for a long time. I respect people who can speak English or any other language that I have studied. I think it is hard to control your motivation, especially when you are learning a language that isn't much of an opportunity to use in a daily life. But the most important thing is enjoy learning. I will listen to your interests and do my best to include as much as possible in the teaching materials. So, please tell me a lot about yourself in the first lesson!

I am an easy-going and a good listener. I've been learning English since I was a kid so I understand how difficult learning other languages can be.

I have been teaching Japanese to non-Japanese people since 1995. I currently teach Japanese to students who study at universities around Osaka. These years I have been assigned to academic writing classes, so I can help you write passages such as essays. Meanwhile I have been studying foreign languages such as English, Spanish, Korean and recently Chinese. I believe I have tips to offer from my learning experiences. I also have taught more than 1500 lessons at italki as of 2023, which has helped me to improve my teaching on application like skype.

Multi lingual Japanese teacher! As a language learner, I know what is more important in learning different languages. For some people memorizing words and phrases will work, for some people just having a real conversation with a native speaker will help. So let's find what works for you and learn together! 日本人の方へ、英語を勉強していらっしゃる方で、英語を勉強したい方は日本語を使って説明ができますので、是非一度レッスンをお試しください。上級の方には英語でのレッスンが効果的だと思いますが、日本語での説明の方がより効果的に内容の把握をすることができると思います。

Anime and Kendo, Japanese swordsmanship oriented experienced teacher from background of interpreter I believe that mastering both martial arts and language is a journey marked by trial and error. Teaching Japanese, especially to Europeans, presents unique challenges, but I thrive on making the process enjoyable. I focus on transforming complex grammar into engaging and understandable activities, ensuring that learning is fun at its core. My lessons blend language with elements of Japanese culture, including Anime and Kendo, creating a vibrant atmosphere that encourages fluency and cultural appreciation. Join me in exploring the beauty of the Japanese language and its rich culture through a dynamic and entertaining approach!

住在上海的日语老师~ 私はプロの講師ではありませんが、大学時代に留学生に日本語を教えていたことがあります。 この経験から、語学が上手になるには、会話が必要ということがわかりました。 また、私自身中国語のを学習しており、中国語を使って会話をすることができます。 我虽然不是专业的讲师。 但是在大学时代以前教过留学生日语。 从这次经验中我明白了。 要想学好外语,对话是必不可少的。 另外,我自己也在学习中文。 可以用中文进行对话

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.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to learn Japanese from the comfort of your own home. Browse our selection of experienced Japanese tutors and enroll in your first lesson now!
