Trouble in Japanese class? I’ll teach you in English!

Private Japanese Tutor in Tokyo and Online

Struggling with Japanese because classes are taught only in Japanese — even for beginners? You’re not alone.

Contact me today! I hold specialized qualifications in Japanese language education and have a strong academic background. I also have a deep understanding of high-level Japanese. Using clear explanations in English, I’ll help you truly understand grammar, vocabulary, and how the language works.

Even students who previously couldn't keep up with Japanese classes are now making real progress — simply because they finally understand the “why” behind the language.

✨ It’s not your fault. You’re not bad at languages.
With the right explanations in English, anyone can learn Japanese.

🎯 Special pricing is currently available for a limited number of students.
Take the first step — with confidence!

Advanced learners are also welcome to contact me!
I can teach classical Japanese, academic Japanese, explanations of common mistakes made even by native Japanese teachers, and the proper usage of sophisticated expressions—things that many Japanese teachers (both native and non-native speakers) often cannot fully explain. I offer instruction in grammar, vocabulary, conversation, and writing at a level beyond the JLPT N1, tackling truly advanced Japanese.

Being a native Japanese speaker doesn’t automatically mean someone can teach Japanese well!

Below, you will find my background and qualifications.

I have a certification. (passed Japanese Language Teaching Competency test)
I graduated from Waseda University and its graduate school (my name was on the Dean's List), which is one of the most prestigious universities in Japan. Waseda is famous for Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences. I know the Japanese language profoundly well and have a wider vocabulary compared to average Japanese people and the common Japanese language teachers. I can teach you beautiful and neat Japanese to with my 6-year experience of teaching. Everyone who has taken my lessons appreciates that my instruction is easy to understand and that I explain more things than other Japanese teachers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How easy is it to learn Japanese in Tokyo?

Tokyo is the capital of Japan and the number of people who speak English is the largest in Japan, so you can, if you like, live with little Japanese. There are many signs written in English wherever you go in Tokyo, so you can lead most of your life in English.
Under the circumstances, learning Japanese in Tokyo is not always that easy. However, Tokyo is an international city and some Japanese people show more understanding towards foreign people and their cultures, so if you are lucky, you may be able to make good Japanese friends here, then you can learn from them various things about Japan and indeed Japanese languages itself. If things work out in this way, you can learn Japanese more easily in Tokyo.

Is Japanese easy to learn?

Yes. When it comes to speaking Japanese, it is easy to learn because pronunciation is almost always phonetic and you can pronounce words as they are written
