Private Japanese Tutor in Singapore and Online

Learning a Language Means Learning The Culture.

はじめまして。I'm Tina, a native tutor from Japan. My Japanese name is Sayaka（爽）. I came to Singapore in 2016 and have been studying and working since then.

Here's something about what I teach:
- Have been teaching as a tutor in Singapore since 2017.
- Have experience in teaching to different ages: From 7 yrs old to 80 yrs old
- Teaching style: Depends on each student's style of learning and purpose. But usually, I will use books you can get from Kinokuniya.
- Teaching materials: JLPT books (N5-N2), summarized notes, and other activities such as online news, talk shows, and teaching videos.

When contacting me, please let me know:
- about yourself (how old are you, where are you from, where do you stay)
- what are you keen to learn (your purpose and goals of learning Japanese. eg. for business/ interest/ taking exams/ moving to Japan)

*Please let me know if you would like to have online classes. 😊

Also, please take note that I only teach at a mutual place between the two of us (eg. Cafes) and not at the student's place (only for kids will be home tuition). I do offer online lessons via Zoom too so feel free to let me know if you would like to have online lessons!
Preferred location is Ang Mo Kio ~ Yio Chu Kang area but depending on the timing, we could meet at other places.

Looking forward to learning with you :) (Please chat with me first to confirm availability) (Please also note an extra charge may apply if lessons are held at student's homes)

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to learn Japanese in Singapore?

It is difficult if you cannot find a native who can speak English (or even Singlish) to teach you, but here I am :)

How much time does it take to learn Japanese in Singapore?

On average, half a year - 1 year to read and understand easy Japanese newspaper.

It's not easy finding a tutor who explains things clearly, knows how to troubleshoot problems well and solve them effectively (specific to each student), is knowledgeable, understanding, practical, patient and accommodating. Tina is everything mentioned above, and a great person too. Highly recommended tutor! (Have been doing a 3-person group class with her and it's been going very well so far)

I have been studying Japanese under Tina for slightly more than 1.5years and I really enjoyed my classes. She explains the grammer very well and helps me to differentiate the nuances between similar ones. Besides grammer, we also alternate between reading and listening which makes the classes a lot more interesting and challenging. I was able to learn so much more (and much faster) as compared to going for group classes. I would highly recommend Tina to anyone who is looking to learn or improve their Japanese. =)

Clara, Jan 29, 2023
She is great. She is patient and concise when explaining concepts to me! Additionally, if I have any doubts or if unclear about anything she would explain it as many times until I understand!
Cindy, Jan 29, 2023
Thank you Tina for patiently teaching me Japanese even though I have 0 patience. You're the best!

Tina is a more than proficient tutor of the Japanese language As a native, She is able to explain the nuances of the usage of the language like which synonyms are more commonly used nowadays. I would recommend her to a serious learner of the language taught in English

Very efficient and responsible teacher! Her lessons are easy to understand. I got my N3 after studying with her for 1year plus. She will strictly guide you through lessons and always willing help you even outside of the classes. Highly recommended!

I have been studying Japanese with Tina for the past 2 years. She has always been patient and flexible in her lessons. I always enjoy her lessons.
Alex, Jan 16, 2021
Very friendly and knowledgeable tutor. Tina sensei knows alot about the latest trends and culture among the youngsters in Japan. Furthermore, it is so easy to reach out to her if you have any problems regarding Japanese outside lessons. For someone who is a native Japanese, to equip with a good mastery with both Japanese and English that can make lessons so easy to understand, couldn't ask for more. Lesson scheduling with her is also very flexible, she is not so strict with the timings and always try her best to accommodate.
Leo, Jan 16, 2021

Joyce, Jan 16, 2021
Tina is a very friendly and effective tutor who teaches in the way that works best for the student. Lessons are very interesting and my understanding has improved a lot since learning from her. During lessons she will also share how phrases and words are used in real life, and guides you along in a detailed manner. Definitely recommended!
