Hello! My name is Akira. I am a native Japanese tutor from Saitama, Japan.
I divide my time between Japan and Portland, Oregon, traveling between the two countries several times a year. Because I have lived and studied in both Japan and the United States, I understand the challenges English speakers face when learning Japanese.

凄い先生！(Awesome teacher!)
Akira-san is an AWESOME tutor. He is patient, very helpful and fun to work with! He is also very flexible and easy going, which I really appreciate. With his help, I have been able to complete the Genki I textbook and learn how to speak Japanese more naturally. While I still have a long way to go to reach my goal of fluency, I am confident that with Akira-san's help, I will get there. I strongly recommend him!

Great teacher, teaches well
Answers any questions when asked and can help with writing, reading, speaking, or listening. Has both insight into the language and the culture of Japan itself.

Great tutor
Akira is a great tutor. We have been working together to get my Japanese back up to speed after several years of not using it. We are working on grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation -- but in ways that are interesting and more impactful. Highly recommended.
