Konnichiwa, my name is Risa. I am originally from Kyoto, Japan. I have eight years' experience as a private tutor in UK and currently teach kids at a Japanese supplementary school.
Teaching Japanese is very fulfilling for me and I love meeting people. I enjoy sharing my nation and learning about other cultures.

About the lesson

All levels are welcome!

Learning a new language can be challenging, but it is also an interesting and exciting opportunity!

If you’re a beginner, I can go through the fundamentals and the essential building blocks to help you start speaking Japanese. I am also fluent in English to make it little easier to begin. Lessons can based around text books or discussing your interests or passions.

Already familiar with Japanese? I offer tailored lessons for individuals seeking regular conversational practice to enhance or maintain language proficiency.

Planning a trip to Japan? Learning the language can be a great way to improve your experience. My lessons can combine basic communication with cultural insights and etiquette guidance.

+Opportunity to learn Kansai-dialect from genuine Kansai native!

I am an Enhanced DBS-certified professional.
Feel free to contact me for more information.

Perfect! I’ve been having Japanese lessons with Risa for around two months now and I’m thoroughly enjoying them. She is patient, kind, and funny, and always takes her time to explain everything clearly. I have two sessions a week and really look forward to them. The lessons are helping me so much as I prepare for a language course in Kyoto in November and for my many trips back and forth to Japan.
