Hello! If you are looking for a FUN and EFFECTIVE Japanese tutor, I am here for you!

⭐︎I am available for over 14 years old students.⭐︎

I can help you to improve your speaking, listening, reading and writing skills for all level of JLPT with many textbooks and materials. After you provide me your goal and request, I will customize a lesson for you. Or, if you just want to know travel Japanese, I will teach you the most useful phrases with cultural background and fun websites.

Understanding something and being able to do the thing are totally different things.
After you understand meanings or grammar points, I will assist you to reach the point that you can actually use it to express yourself in Japanese. Repetition is the key for learning language but it should be fun so that you can keep up motivation. That's why I am here for you until you can actually use Japanese to communicate with other people. Even JLPT doesn't have speaking test, improving communication skill in Japanese will boost your score to the next level. I will provide you reasonable homework each time, for example : Writing diaries or essays in Japanese, Kanji practice, etc.

And I have a PhD and have been a Japanese tutor for American students in the US for years. Additionally, I have six years of experience in Japanese public schools and lived in many cities in Japan. We can share many unique Japanese culture that I experienced and studied in Japan, too.

I love to talk to new people and share different perspectives and experiences to each other.
Do you want to improve your speaking and communicating skills in Japanese? Please contact me and let's talk and learn Japanese together!!!

30 mins Lesson : $35
45 min Lesson : $45

Language is ART. As I have a PhD in Art, my lesson is really practical using many images and phisical exersices. Of course we can discuss Japanese art, music and culture in depth too. I have over 10 years' experience teaching Japanese at all levels (JLPT N5–N1), including travel Japanese. I use a variety of materials and exercises to help you improve your language skills and introduce more natural expressions into your daily life! Language is art, and learning a language should be an exciting experience and it will transform your life! Let's have a great time learning together!

Excellent language tutor!

Yukari-sensei continues to help me advance my Japanese greatly! She's a very patient teacher, and because of her teaching style, the results have been dramatic! Lessons involve writing, working from a variety of teaching material, and some conversation. It's a lot, but thanks to some excellent, detailed explanations and thorough teaching style, I've become capable of passing JLPT N5 and N4 on the first attempts, and currently am on track to pass the next level as well. I highly recommend lessons from Yukari-sensei if you're interested in making progress with the Japanese language!

A Very Kind and Interesting Person

I love that she focused on teaching me exactly what I needed to know for my trip; greetings, culture, letters, and food so far! Lots of useful homework and practice outside of the lessons! An amazing tutor and even more amazing person!

Knowledgeable Tutor

Yukari tailors the lesson towards my needs, an emphasis on travel Japanese. She lightens up the session with humor and keeps the lessons flowing without making them feel overwhelming. Highly recommend her!

Knowledgeable, helpful and patient tutor

I had a great first lesson with 先生Yukari! I was nervous but there was no need! She is very knowledgeable, kind and patient. I really like that the hour session was set up to maximize learning efficiently, and I walked away feeling very excited to continue my studies. She had a personalized lesson plan set up, walked me through the goals of the class and the next, and assigned homework to help reinforce what I’m learning. I’ve been self studying for two years, but don’t feel as confident in my listening or speaking. I really appreciated that she mixed speaking Japanese into our lesson so that I can strengthen that part of my studies. It was a fantastic first lesson. I’m looking forward to more!

She has materials and tools that she shares with you, and will adjust lessons to what you are trying to focus on. Yukari is very kind and respectful. Absolutely recommend working with her in improving Japanese language skillsets.
