As a native Spanish speaker from Latin America, I would like to share the beauty of our language with foreigners around the world. My focus is to help you achieve your goals, have fun & share about my culture in every class.

Also, having been immersed in English speaking environments since I was a child, I consider myself a native speaker of this language.

Russian is one of the most spoken languages in the world. It is an official language of Russian, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. It is spoken in all other post-soviet countries, and also in Israel, the Balkans and the U.S.
As Russia has been in the process of positioning itself as a major economic force, including the Russian language in CV would definitely give a good impression to employers. Many companies today are looking for qualified international workers who master Russian.
Apart from that, being able to speak the Russian language will allow you to understand Russians and their culture, something which could never happen through cultural exchanges. You would develop a new view of Russian literature, music, and art.

Why choose me as a tutor?
- I am a native Russian speaker with experience in teaching the Russian language to non-Russians.
- I have been teaching Russian for years to beginners and advanced learners. My English and Japanese are fluent, so in our lessons, I will explain everything to you in a very understandable and easy way.
- I have been giving private lessons and teaching in classrooms. I have worked with children and adults.
- I ensure that you would enjoy my classes because I always try to make the learning process fun and relaxed. Our lessons will always be well organized and well structured.
-All the lessons are tailored exactly to your individual needs to help you succeed.
- I will help you to achieve the necessary level of communication in the shortest possible time since I also have been learning foreign languages and know the secret for learning them quickly. You will finally begin to speak fluently in Russian.

Even if you have not learned the language before, by the end of the course you will be able to speak Russian, learn all the grammar basics, understand native Russian speakers, read and write in Russian.

I look forward to meeting you!

If you want to discover French, English or German, send me a message, I would be happy to help you in your language skills.
In the same way, if your children are struggling in Mathematics, Physics and they need someone to boost their homework, I would be delighted to share my knowledge with them.

🇬🇧Hello! I'm Erika from Tokyo.
I previously worked in a trading company and in a music agency in Japan.
I studied Russian at university (C1 level) and French in Paris (B2 level), so I truly understand how challenging it is to start a new language and continue until you reach an intermediate or even advanced level.

I enjoy playing musical instruments, dancing, and doing crafts.
As a naturally curious person, I don't want you to give up learning something new just because you feel you may not have enough time for self-study.

With me, you can simply keep going at a steady pace —
I will remind you of essential points, help you build habits, and guide you in every lesson, so you can make progress without stress or worrying about time management.

I can work remotely and can offer lessons early in the morning Japan time, so I am available for students in Europe or America as well.

Please feel free to contact me with your preferred schedule.

I look forward to supporting your Japanese learning journey!

[ABOUT ME]
I’m Ryota, a native Japanese speaker living in Mitaka, Tokyo, and I’m here to help you learn Japanese in a fun and practical way. With strong English skills and a deep understanding of what it’s like to learn a second language, I can guide you through the tricky parts and make the process smoother.

[ABOUT THE SESSIONS]
Our sessions are going to be tailored to your particular goals and interests. If you’re a beginner, we’ll start with easy conversations or watching and discussing videos in Japanese. That way I can help you get used to the rhythm and flow of Japanese. If you’re a more advanced learner, perhaps preparing for the JLPT, we can review past exams together and focus on polishing your grammar and vocabulary to get you ready.

I’m also well-versed in Japanese traditions and culture—including anime and manga—so we can easily incorporate those into our lessons if they interest you. And if you’ve recently moved to Japan or are planning to, I can share insights and practical tips to help you navigate life here. (I’ve got plenty of expat friends and know the drill!)

If you’re looking for a supportive, chill tutor to guide you on your Japanese journey, I’d love to help. Let’s make learning Japanese an exciting and enjoyable experience together!

I offer an enjoyable Japanese lesson! Do you like Japanese culture, food or Manga? If you learn Japanese with me, you’ll be able to enjoy them!
If you don’t have any requests, then we use a text book and learn grammar etc with talking about Japanese culture. We can focus on the conversation as well.
I usually use more Katakana words because it’s more common now, useful and easy to memorize vocabulary for you.
It’s possible to go around together or only talk about something about Japan.
Let’s learn Japanese together!
