I am a native Japanese and I have lived in US for more than 10 years. For the past 5 years I lived in Japan and studied methods for teaching Japanese at a language school in Tokyo. I can teach speaking, writing, grammar and conversation at all levels.

Learning Japanese may not be as easy as one like Spanish because we have a different grammar, accents and Japanese characters for writing, but it is fun when you learn it. I have text books for beginners, intermediates and for kids too. I ca...

I've been getting Japanese lessons from Aki ?? for awhile now and have enjoyed and learned so much from each one. I always look forward to the next lesson and would recommend her to anyone!

I have been tutored by Aki sensei weekly for 2 years. She is excellent with just the right balance of conversation, vocabulary/kanji and grammar. She is always structured and organized, and spends a significant amount of time in advance preparing custom lesson plans. She is always available to answer questions, and the lessons are fun, but formal and disciplined enough to ensure steady progress. Highly recommended!

Aki san creates an interesting and enjoyable environment for learning. She adapts the lesson to specific needs while creating effective building blocks. The lessons are demanding but rewarding at the same time.

I had Aki help my children with their Japanese homework and they were very happy to have her help. She was knowledgeable, engaging, patient and playful in a way that made their studies fun.

Excellent teacher?I couldn't ask for better! I needed help refreshing some rusty language skills, and she also helped translate some paperwork. Aki gets my highest recommendation.

My adult son and I take Japanese lessons together. Our purposes for doing so are different. Aki has listened to what we want to achieve from the lessons and has adapted her teaching materials and teaching style to best suit our needs. She is patient when going over drills with us, yet challenges us gently to move along in the lessons. We really appreciate her methods and would highly recommend her for Japanese language lessons.

Aki is wonderful to work with. She is kind, patient and an expert in translating complex language and sentence structures. She speaks fluent English and Japanese with a strong understanding of colloquialisms. Aki was very helpful and my tutoring needs were met far and above my expectations! Thank You!

Aki-san was very patient and we went through the grammar points together. She is a very nice person and I can't ask for a better tutor.

Aki san is a very patient and kind teacher. She is never late for classes, and very responsible and professional. She not only teaches me the Japanese language, but also Japanese culture. I learned a lot of knowledge from her in these two months. She has a very helpful way to help me strengthen my memory of Japanese vocabulary and grammar. She will write vocabulary and grammar test for me to take, and she will review the content she has taught at the beginning of each class. She will also take note of the vocabulary or grammar that you are not familiar with, and help you practice again and again until you completely get it. If you want to learn Japanese well, I highly recommend you to take Aki teacher's classes. I have no doubt that you will learn a lot of things from Aki, and you will enjoy the learning process with her. At last, I want to say thank you very much for teaching me Japanese. It is my pleasure to learn Japanese language with you.

...with Aki. She is personable, was prepared for us specifically, and we look forward to having a few more lessons before we go to Japan.

I had a great first lesson with Aki-San! She was very patient and relaxed. She made things easy to understand and answered all of my questions. I am really looking forward to my next lesson.
