Hi! My name is Aika, and I’m a friendly and patient Japanese tutor with a passion for helping others learn and grow. I believe that learning a language should be fun and encouraging.
I worked as a pre-school teacher at the international school for four years, and then I moved to Helsinki around the beginning of April. I was teaching Japanese culture activities to children, so I'm familiar with them as well.
I specialize in Japanese and English, and I love creating a relaxed, supportive learning environment tailored to each student’s needs and goals.
If you are eager to learn Japanese, I’m here to guide you step by step. With experience working with both children and adults, I can adapt my teaching style to match your learning pace and interests.
Learning Japanese might seem difficult because of the different writing systems and grammar, but I’d love to start with speaking expressions—it’s more fun that way! My lessons focus on real-life communication and helping you feel confident using Japanese in everyday situations.
Let’s enjoy learning together!
You can start by learning vocabulary and expressions with language apps. After that, join a class or meet other Japanese learners or native speakers, and keep practicing by using what you’ve learned.
I think speaking and listening are not as hard as they seem—there are so many ways to say just one word, and it’s exciting to explore different expressions and styles!
Honestly, writing and reading in Japanese can be challenging because of the three writing systems (hiragana, katakana, and kanji). That’s why I strongly recommend starting with fun and natural Japanese conversation! My lessons focus on real-life communication and helping you feel confident using Japanese in everyday situations.
