Hello! In my classes, you can choose to learn either Japanese or Chinese, or even both! You'll master the four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) tailored to your needs. As a native speaker of both languages, I can teach from beginner to business and academic levels.

I am well-versed in the cultures and societies of Japan and China, providing you with valuable insights into the languages as well as their cultural contexts. If you’re looking to start learning an Asian language, these two major languages are an excellent choice, offering valuable skills for international business and academic pursuits.

My lessons are customized to fit your schedule and preferences, allowing for a personalized curriculum that meets your specific interests. With a flexible schedule, I create a supportive environment for you to learn at your own pace.

In my classes, you can expect a fun and practical approach to language learning. If you're interested, please get in touch! Let's explore the exciting world of languages together!

Ready to start speaking Mandarin confidently? My lessons are designed to help you learn practical Mandarin that you can use right away. Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to improve your skills, I’ll guide you through everyday conversations, essential vocabulary, and key grammar concepts.

Classes are tailored to your goals, whether it’s for travel, business, or simply to communicate more effectively in Chinese-speaking environments. You’ll practice real-world scenarios, like ordering food, asking for directions, or making introductions, while also building a strong foundation in reading and writing.

Join me for focused, hands-on lessons that prioritise speaking and listening skills, so you can start using Mandarin in daily life with ease.

Konnichiwa!

Are you interested in learning and practice speaking the Japanese language in a welcoming and relaxed environment? If that sounds like you, you have come to the right place^^

My lessons are based on daily conversation and there is no textbook, so each lesson we can talk about whatever you feel like at the time! I can help you learn new words, phrases and guide you on how to talk with a natural pronunciation.

I have experience teaching English conversation to Japanese students in Japan for roughly 5 years and the majority were new to the language so if you are not too confident in speaking Japanese yet, there is no need to worry! People would describe me as a kind, empathetic and patient person so don't be afraid to ask me questions or make lots of mistakes, as that is all part of the learning process^^

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to meeting you!

Note: For in person lessons, please discuss the availability of place/time directly with me, as the information stated here is only a rough estimate. Furthermore, in person lessons will be held at a public space and not at the student's house (If you are still a high school student, this can be discussed).
