Hi, I’m Yutaka. I studied Sociology at a Japanese university (Keio university) and have a bachelor degree (BA). I did my master's degree at Stellenbosch university. I have been tutoring for 8 years and my students love learning Japanese from me. I can organize your own leaning plan according to your ability and goal. If you want to learn "useful" Japanese and be able to use the skill in your real life, please let me know. I offer all materials for my lessons for free. I mainly offer online lessons.

Hi! I’m Yu, a native Japanese. I was born and raised in Kyushu (the southern part of Japan) and now living in Osaka. I studied in Canada when I was a university student so English is available. If you are a beginner, I recommend studying Japanese in your language. (or the language you can understand well) If you go to a Japanese school in Japan, it's teaching in Japanese even for beginners and teachers don't understand English but I think that's not efficient. Of course, I try to make you use Japanese as much as you can because speaking is the most important thing. In my lesson, you get many opportunities to practice speaking! Now English is only available for my lesson but I'm studying Chinese and German so hopefully I will use them as well in the future! 中級者なら日本語でレッスンしますが、英語で質問しても大丈夫です。Once you start to speak Japanese, Japanese people just say "日本語上手ですね" and nobody corrects your Japanese even if you make many mistakes, so I can teach you proper Japanese for the intermediate level. I also have a license for teaching Japanese calligraphy, so if you're interested we can also have a class on it. きれいな文字や習字に興味がある人は、ぜひ！ I also study other languages so I can understand how you feel. That's why I can be flexible for you, even in the middle of the lesson, you can always suggest things(what you wanna study, how you wanna study, etc...), and then we can make the perfect lesson for you :) Please don’t hesitate to contact me. The best way to learn a new language is to speak and practice! Let’s enjoy our conversation! I’m looking forward to becoming your tutor and helping you with your learning experience :) We can meet face-to-face in cafes if you live in the Kansai area. (Osaka, 大阪 Kobe 神戸, Hyogo 兵庫, Kyoto 京都) I usually do the lessons in Umeda 梅田. I can also visit your office if you can book the meeting room for the lesson. Let me know if you have a preferred learning method/textbook and your goal.

Hi, I'm Taichi, originally from Kyoto, Japan and now coming back from a year of Working Holiday in Sydney. I really like watching Anime, playing basketball, and listening to a variety of music I am a university student in Japan, and my major is education. While in Japan, I worked in a local cram school for two years, teaching Japanese, English, and Math. Since I went to Sydney, I have been in a child care center as a volunteer for a few weeks. In my class, I will provide you with varied ways of learning Japanese which is the best for each student. I assume there are some students who like to learn it through Anime, movies, and some Japanese cultures and others want to focus on grammar and text. No matter what you especially want to learn, I will flexibly meet your demands and prepare the most appropriate way to study for each student. As I have already moved back to Japan, i can only offer online lesson currently. If you're interested, please contact me at your earliest convenience. Let's enjoy learning Japanese together!

Hello, I’m Yukiko. ✅ Certified Japanese language teacher ✅ I can speak English (I studied online) ✅ Lessons are customized to each learner's needs I obtained my Japanese teaching certification. This certification changed my perspective on teaching Japanese as a foreign language. While using Japanese as a native speaker felt natural, teaching it required a different approach. At the core of my teaching philosophy is the relationship between learning, interest, and emotions. When learners are interested and emotionally engaged, the material becomes deeply ingrained. Enthusiasm and interest make learning more effective. That’s why I create lessons that connect with your interests. I want you to enjoy learning Japanese! I also explain common mistakes and give you a lot of speaking practice to help you feel confident. By reviewing grammar and vocabulary you’ve learned before, we can make sure you improve your Japanese conversation skills. I’m excited to start this journey with you! Congratulations on deciding to learn Japanese. Let’s have fun and reach your language goals together!

The most difficult part in learning a foreign language is the practice, which can be acquired only by conversing with a native speaker. For people willing to practice foreign languages, it is difficult to find a private language tutor who lives or works in their city. TUTOROO has been designed to provide a frictionless experience while connecting tutors to students, for private in-person language lessons.
"I've studied with a native tutor for two months because I'm traveling this week. These classes helped me a lot! I loved TUTOROO and am already recommending it to my friends."
- Mark Bariche
"I found the perfect tutor for me, I became able to speak in another language and enjoyed meeting new people from other cultures. I've improved my language skills, without traveling abroad. Thanks TUTOROO!"
