    Learning Japanese is super FUN with Yuriko sensei!

    Experienced JAPANESE teacher since 2007, available for students of all experience levels and ages! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while building a strong foundation to further develop proficiency in Japanese. Each class is custom made to your own level and needs. <HEADLINE #1> Learning Japanese is super FUN with ME!! Japanese is one of the hardest languages to master. But it's also one of the most interesting ones. The best way to learn a new language is to have fun learning it. Bring your favorite topic; travel, anime, fashion, food, your mid term or JLPT. I will make it a good fun by tailoring your lesson to what you really want to accomplish. Don't worry, I am friendly, patient, and easy-going. My goal is to support your goals and dreams. <HEADLINE #2> Wanna watch anime without subtitles or voiceover? If that's your goal, then let's make it happen! It'll be possible if you focus on learning Japanese using your favorite anime! Bring on your most favorite anime, and I will go over phrase by phrase and answer your questions. If you don't worry too much about grammar and structures, and just want to learn the real conversations, your lessons will be tailored to that goal. As I always tell my students, "My goal is to support your goals and dreams". Okay!! "Let's get started!" ** Classes are taught online primarily using SKYPE.

    Hi, my name is Yuriko Kon nichi wa. Genki? I was born and raised in Japan. I can teach from beginner to intermediate in Japanese. I have many hours of experience teaching Japanese, late teens to adults, private, group or home-schooling -- whoever wants to learn Japanese (writing, reading, conversation, romaji, hiragana, katakana kanji and JLPT (all level)). I have a teaching certificate issued by Japanese Ministry of Education, I have been teaching private lessons and language schools since 2007, and I'm currently available to teach lessons online and works well. Just let me know what time works for you so we can start talking and laugh together in Japanese. I can help! Let's have fun! Jaa ne- Yoroshiku:)

    Yuriko is very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. I've been studying Japanese on my own for about a month and decided I wanted an instructor to help me. I was very nervous to speak Japanese in front of her as my studies have left me reading about grammar and vocabulary, not necessarily saying much of it out loud, but she quickly calmed me with her reassuring nature. She provided me with a lot of insight on the use cases for many words/phrases, as well as Japanese culture. I left my first lesson feeling confident and ready for more! I'd highly recommend Yuriko to anyone wanting a Japanese language instructor! She's the best!

    My daughter is absolutely LOVING her lessons with Yuriko. We travel often and it is wonderful that my daughter is able to continue her lessons, where ever we are.

    In class and via Skype, I have taught hundreds of classes to small children to retired businessman. Classes are tailored to each student's needs. We can focus on conversational, reading and writing, or listening. Casual or formal. Prep yourself for the dream trip to Japan, or learn enough to chat with your Japanese anime friends, or take care of your Japanese customers. Very flexible style, but my main focus is to have fun learning.
