      These lessons are great for improving vocabulary, listening and speaking. 杏美 is very engaging with students and quick to correct mistakes and provide instant feedback. I really enjoy learning with her.

      Ami is a great teacher, she is kind and the lessons are very fun and rewarding. I thought it would be difficult as a total beginner with the lessons being conducted solely in Japanese, and it is challenging but just makes it even more rewarding when you are able to speak and have conversations in Japanese, and I feel it is a more natural and authentic way to learn. I would recommend Ami for students of all levels looking to learn Japanese, I have already learnt a lot and I look forward to learning new content every lesson.

      杏美先生 is a very patient, kind and sociable teacher. I can practice my Japanese with ease, and without any discomfort. Thanks to that teaching method, I gradually became more confident with my Japanese speaking ability whereas it wasn't the case at all before! The topics we discussed are wide and open, I enjoyed our lessons!

      As 杏美 already said, only Japanese is spoken in the lessons; you have to be the right person for it, but it can be really helpful to get used to using Japanese even for filler words. I always enjoy the lessons a lot. :D

      My lessons with 杏美先生 are fun and very easy to follow. She explains things clearly and speaks in a way that is comfortable for beginners.(Which is good because my Japanese level is low) I felt relaxed during the lesson and could practise speaking without pressure. She is patient and encouraging, which made the conversation enjoyable. I would 100% recommend lessons with her.

    My specialties

    Conversational Japanese

    In my Japanese conversation lessons, you will practice speaking a lot at a level that matches you. 🗣️✨This is not just “casual chatting.”During our conversation, I introduce new vocabulary and expressions, and gently correct you so you can speak more naturally and confidently. 📚You will learn natural Japanese that people actually use in daily life — not just textbook Japanese.Beginners are very welcome, so please don’t worry. 🌼I speak slowly and use simple Japanese to support you.After each lesson, I will send you:• correction points• new phrases you learned• important expressions from the lesson 📝💛In every lesson, let’s gradually build your ability to speak natural Japanese together.

    Japanese for beginners

    In my beginner conversation lessons, we build a strong foundation using slow and simple Japanese 🌱✨We can start with learning how to read and write Hiragana and Katakana, so complete beginners are very welcome 😊We begin with familiar topics such as self-introductions, daily life, and hobbies, and practice speaking in short and simple sentences.I use original slides to guide each lesson.The slides include:• illustrations• example sentences• model conversations• useful phrases you can use right away 📖✨When new vocabulary or grammar appears, I explain it carefully on the spot and practice with you so you can say it more naturally.It’s completely okay if you can’t speak yet.This is a lesson where you gradually learn to express yourself in your own words.After each lesson, I will send you:• correction points• new expressions you learnedI truly value creating a time where you feel that speaking Japanese is fun 🌼

    JLPT

    In my JLPT preparation lessons, we focus on helping you pass efficiently by tailoring each lesson to your level and weaknesses 📚✨For grammar, I use original slides to explain concepts clearly and step by step.We also do short quizzes during the lesson to check your understanding 📝In addition, we read real Japanese news articles together to build your vocabulary.After that, you will answer reading comprehension questions so you can develop practical reading skills 📰✨Each lesson is customized based on your weak points, so you can improve in the areas you need most.I can also support you with basic topics such as particles, so you can strengthen your foundation 🌱Let’s move from “I kind of understand” to “I can solve it with confidence” together 💪✨

    Business Japanese

    In my Business Japanese lessons, I use my real experience working in Japanese companies—including project management, collaboration with engineers, documentation, and daily business operations—to teach practical and realistic Japanese. 💼✨We practice expressions used in real workplaces, such as meetings, emails, reports, and internal and external communication, so you can speak clearly, politely, and professionally. 🗣️📄📊I also support job interview preparation for both career changes and new graduates. 🎓💼In these lessons, we work on:• Improving and polishing your self-introduction ✨• Structuring strong and clear reasons for applying 🏢• Explaining your strengths and weaknesses effectively 💡• Practicing common interview questions 🎤• Using natural and appropriate keigo (polite language) 🙇‍♀️• Understanding Japanese interview manners and expectations 🇯🇵We also do realistic role-plays that simulate actual interviews, so you can practice in a setting close to the real experience. 🎤✨In addition, I explain vocabulary and expressions commonly used in Japanese companies and help you choose the most natural and appropriate phrasing for each situation. 📚📝Using real examples and practical scenarios, we work on speaking, listening, and understanding Japanese business culture, so you can communicate with confidence at work. 🤝🇯🇵✨Let’s build practical Business Japanese that you can truly use in real situations. 💪🌟
