About Yuka

About me
Hi everyone! I’m Yuka, born and raised in Japan and now living in the United States. People often describe me as patient and cheerful, qualities I cherish in my teaching. I’ve practiced Kendo (Japanese martial arts) for 15 years, starting when I was just 3 years old, and that experience has really shaped my personality and approach to teaching. In my free time, I also love cooking and often try new cuisines. Living in the U.S. encourages me to experiment with new recipes, which is so much fun and helps me get to know different cultures through cooking. I’m excited to share my culture and language with you all!

Me as a teacher
Since 2019, I’ve been teaching Japanese both online and in-person, covering everything from everyday conversations to business discussions. My background in HR also allows me to help with formal business communication. I understand how challenging it can be to learn a new language—I’ve experienced it myself with English. That’s why I’m dedicated to supporting and motivating you every step of the way.
My students often tell me they enjoy my classes because I’m patient and make learning fun. I focus on active participation and our progress together. Let’s make your Japanese learning journey an enjoyable one!

About the lesson

In my lessons, we mainly use the grammar patterns from "Minna no Nihongo" and focus on lots of conversation practice. With the help of original supplementary materials, you will see your conversational skills improve rapidly. I also offer lessons tailored to your goals, whether it's improving conversational skills, learning business Japanese, or preparing for interviews. Let's grow together and move towards becoming the person you want to be! I’m genuinely looking forward to talking with you in class!

I just wrapped up Yuka’s one-on-one online Japanese class, and I can’t say enough good things about it! If you’re looking to improve your speaking skills, this is the place to be. Yuka uses original materials based on Minna no Nihongo, which made everything super relatable and fun.
What I loved most is how personal the lessons felt. Yuka tailored everything to my interests, making it easy to stay engaged. From our very first session, she encouraged me to jump right in and speak, which really helped me build confidence. Plus, the relaxed atmosphere meant I never felt shy about making mistakes!
Our sessions were always packed with fun activities and real-life scenarios that made practicing feel natural. The original materials Yuka created kept our conversations lively and interesting, and I always looked forward to our chats.
Thanks to Yuka’s amazing support, I feel so much more confident in my Japanese now. If you’re thinking about taking an online class to boost your speaking skills, I wholeheartedly recommend Yuka! You’ll have a blast while learning!

Yuka is very friendly and helpful. I feel safe making mistakes in class. What I like most about her class is that she gives me a lot of opportunities to talk. Some teachers I’ve had tend to talk a lot, so I don’t have much time to speak. But I can practice speaking a lot with new grammar with her. I love her class!

I recommend her class if you want to enhance your conversation skills. I've been taking her private lessons for a year, and I'm grateful that a friend introduced me to her. I had been struggling with speaking, but my conversation skills have improved significantly.

Yuka is incredibly helpful and the best teacher I’ve ever had. I’ve been taking her course on Learnship for over three years, and my conversational skills have improved significantly because of her classes. After I complete the course provided by my company, I plan to continue studying with her privately.
