Style

We’ll have fun learning through conversation. I’ll especially help you understand grammar and reading clearly, while encouraging you to think for yourself and express your ideas in Japanese.
My goal is not only to help you pass the JLPT, but also to help you improve your natural Japanese conversation skills.
You’re also welcome to use your own textbook during our lessons!

About Me

Hi! I’m Yuki, a certified Japanese language teacher based in Japan.

In my lessons, we study JLPT N3–N1 grammar and reading through conversation in a fun and engaging way. Let’s work toward both passing the JLPT and improving your Japanese conversation skills!

In my free time, I enjoy hula dancing, listening to ’80s J-pop, and gardening. I even make my own toner using herbs I grow in my garden.

I love trying new things and have lots of other hobbies too! I’d love to hear about yours as well!

What My Student Say

I have been taking Japanese lessons with Tsuki for several years. All this time, she has kept me motivated. I really appreciate her patience, encouragement, and rigorous teaching style. She is always well prepared for class and knows how to convey her knowledge effectively. I am a foreign language teacher myself, so I know how to recognize a competent teacher. It's a pleasure to attend her classes.

Tsuki-san is a very patient and detail-oriented instructor. I had the pleasure of taking a few months of Japanese lessons with her, and her instruction on hiragana and katakana, as well as sentence structure and important words and phrases, were a huge help when I vacationed in Okinawa, Japan. The way she focuses on building a solid foundation and a clear understanding of the basics makes learning Japanese much more approachable.

Jay

Tsuki is an excellent instructor - patient, clear, and with well thought-out lessons. Highly recommended!
