I love working with diverse students including LGBTQ learners!
I am a Japanese native speaker who has a deep interest in helping students learn Japanese and learn how to be successful in Japanese society. I lived in Japan until this past year and worked as a civil servant for seven years. During that time, I helped JET Program workers from America learn how to talk with their bosses and co-workers.

Wonderful tutor!
I was feeling very nervous about taking my first lesson, but Aki was very kind and knowledgeable. I was able to laugh throughout the whole lesson, and really start to feel comfortable. When I struggled to find words Aki was able to help me find them, and was very patient with listening to me say “ummm” while I racked my brain. If you are looking for a great Japanese tutor, look no further than Aki!

あき様は凄くかっこいい先生ですね。
[LESSON 133 / 1ST LESSON IN YEAR 5782] I enjoyed playing Shiritori and the Jiho game. This Thursday (9/15) is Yom Kippur, which is the holiest day in the Jewish Calendar. See you on Yom Kippur! :)

Stellar tutor
Aki continues to be an amazing Japanese tutor and instructor. She is patient and knows what exercises are best required for my child. My child has been working with Aki for around 3 years now and we love her and will continue to for as long as we can.

FANTASTIC!
This was my first lesson but my boyfriend referred her to me. She is absolutely wonderful and so knowledgeable about the nuances and meanings behind Japanese words. She is very encouraging and is willing to go at a good pace for beginners. I felt like she was always very professional and was on track to give you the most for your money in a lesson.

Aki is fun and encouraging to work with
I had a great first lesson with Aki. I am just starting out and a bit hesitant to speak in Japanese but Aki was very encouraging. Would definitely recommend and I am looking forward to continuing my lessons!

Very adaptable
Aki understands my needs, and adjusts her lessons accordingly. We were able to overcome some technical issues to make the lessons work. She was open to feedback, and I provided her input.

Aki Japanese Tutor Review
After two lessons I feel as though a lot has already been accomplished. The hour goes by in a blink of an eye. Aki has high energy and enthusiasm and is very patient as well. I would highly recommend Aki.

Blessed to have found Aki
Aki has had several sessions with our son. Out of all the tutors and teachers that he has had in his life Aki has been the best. She has done an amazing job building his confidence. When he is in session I can hear him laughing and when he is done he is so excited for the next session. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Aki for everything you do!
