Saki Sensei

Hello! I’m Saki.

After spending time in Ireland on a working holiday, I’m now living in the UK. At SAYAS, I mainly teach Japanese conversation to children.

Everyone is welcome, including those who want to practice conversation, learn Kansai dialect, or need support in English! Of course, adults are also more than welcome to join.

I love connecting with people from all walks of life. My hobbies are traveling and trying different foods. I’d be happy to chat and have fun together in the lessons. I’m looking forward to meeting you! 😊

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY

The course is great it's straight to the point. The nuances are clearly explained which is very important and very helpful because they don't really explain those in textbooks.

I'm in the midst of the course and it supplements other Japanese material that I am using to learn right now. I love that I can rewind, fast-forward and play the videos according to my learning pace. The PDF slides are handy and helpful in connecting speech to text. Highly recommended 🙂

Product: [Japanese 101] Master Grammar & Conversation Basics

This course is suitable for students who have completed an introductory level course. It will teach you why and when to use different levels of polite language (敬語). Even if you’re not particularly interested in learning highly native colloquial expressions, by the end of the course, you’ll understand why Japanese people use them and what they mean.
