Online One-to-One Japanese Lessons

Learn Japanese with lessons tailored to your goals, your interests and your pace.

Whether you're learning Japanese for travel, work, the JLPT, or simply because you love the language, one-to-one lessons give you the opportunity to focus on what matters most to you. Every lesson is personalised, so you can make steady progress with the support of an experienced Japanese teacher.

Is one-to-one learning right for you?

Private lessons are ideal if you want to:

  • Build confidence speaking Japanese

  • Learn at your own pace

  • Receive personalised feedback and support

  • Prepare for the JLPT with a structured study plan

  • Focus on the language you'll actually use, whether that's for travel, work or everyday conversation

Lessons are taught online via Zoom, so you can join from anywhere in the world.

What we'll work on

Every student has different goals, so every lesson is different. Depending on what you'd like to achieve, we can focus on:

  • Beginner Japanese

  • Travel Japanese

  • JLPT preparation

  • Conversation practice

  • Grammar and vocabulary

  • Reading, listening and speaking skills

Lessons can follow a textbook, be conversation-focused, or combine both approaches to suit your learning style.

Learn with confidence

I know from experience that learning Japanese can be challenging - and it should also be enjoyable.

Having studied Japanese to JLPT N1 level and lived in Japan for four years, I understand both the challenges and the rewards of learning the language. My aim is to create lessons that are friendly, encouraging and well structured, helping you build confidence step by step.
