Nice to meet you! I’m Azusa, a friendly and patient native Japanese tutor living in Hyogo, Japan
⭐ I have about 15 years of experience working at Japanese companies, with a background in sales, secretarial work, and human resources.
⭐ I offer beginner-friendly Japanese lessons using the popular textbooks Genki I & II, focusing on building a solid foundation.
📘 About My Lessons
My classes are mainly designed for beginners and are based on Genki I & II. Lessons are conducted primarily in Japanese, but don’t worry—even complete beginners can feel comfortable. I speak slowly and clearly, and I carefully explain new words and grammar using example sentences, gestures, and visual cues to make learning easy and enjoyable.
✅ Recommended for Learners Who:
・Want to start learning Japanese from zero: You will learn pronunciation, grammar, and conversation step by step.
・Are currently studying with Genki: I provide regular support for areas that are difficult to understand when studying alone.
・Are planning a trip to Japan: Learn practical travel phrases, manners, and Japanese culture.
・Want to enjoy conversation practice: We can practice natural Japanese based on your hobbies and interests.
・Are interested in business Japanese: Learn polite expressions, workplace communication, and Japanese business culture.
⭐ Features of My Lessons
・Lessons mainly follow Genki I & II.
・Even for beginners, classes are conducted mainly in Japanese to help you get used to the language.
・Free conversation sessions are available based on topics you like.
・I support you so that you can speak natural, everyday Japanese with confidence in real-life situations.
🌼 Hobbies & Other Interests
I enjoy hiking, Pilates, and spending time with dogs.
I love traveling and have visited over 20 countries. In 2025, I walked two UNESCO World Heritage pilgrimage routes: the Camino de Santiago in Spain and the Kumano Kodo in Japan.
Please start with a trial lesson and tell me about your goals and learning style.
Let’s enjoy learning Japanese together!
・If you study Japanese steadily, you will definitely improve.
・Beginners can feel at ease, learning pronunciation, grammar, and conversation from the basics.
