About TAKUMA

【From the Classroom in Japan to the Harbor of Sydney】 Hi! I’m Takuma. I spent 4 years teaching in a Japanese Junior High School, where I discovered my true passion: helping people grow and gain confidence. Today, you can find me enjoying the incredible views while working at the Opera Bar or exploring the beautiful streets of Sydney. I moved here to challenge myself in a new culture, just like you are doing with Japanese!

【I Understand the Challenge!】 Being a "student" myself here in Australia, I know exactly how it feels to learn a new language. Sometimes it's frustrating, and sometimes you feel shy. That’s why I’m not just your teacher; I’m your biggest supporter! I bring my professional teaching licenses (Primary and Secondary) to the table, but I also bring a lot of patience, laughter, and real-life stories from Japan.

【A Logical Mind with a Big Heart】 My background is actually in Science education, which means I love clear, logical explanations. I won’t just tell you "that’s just how it is"—I’ll show you the "why" in a way that makes you go, "Oh, now I get it!" I love seeing that spark of joy in my students' eyes. Whether you’re a parent looking for a kind mentor for your child or an adult wanting to master the JLPT, I promise to make our lessons the most positive part of your day.

【Let’s Be Connections, Not Just Student & Teacher】 I believe the best learning happens when you’re relaxed and having fun. When I’m not teaching or working at the bar, I’m usually out practicing my English and soaking up the Sydney sun. I can’t wait to hear your story and help you reach your Japanese goals with a smile!

Let's start this exciting journey together! Thank you for your reading.

About the lesson

Hi! I’m Takuma, a Sydney-based Japanese tutor dedicated to making your learning journey fun and effective!

【My Approach: Professional, Logical, and Full of Joy!】 I am a native Japanese speaker and a fully licensed teacher with 4 years of professional teaching experience in Japan. My teaching philosophy is built on two pillars: Logical Clarity and Joyful Discovery. With my background in Science education, I specialize in breaking down complex grammar into simple, logical steps that actually make sense!

【Who are my lessons for?】

Kids & Primary: Fun, interactive lessons that feel like playtime but build a solid foundation.

HSC & High School: Strategic support to boost your confidence and academic grades.

Adults & JLPT: Logical breakdowns of grammar for those who want to understand the "why" of Japanese.

【Lesson Structure & Flexibility】 While a standard session is 60 minutes, I am very flexible to your needs. I can offer 45-minute sessions for children or 90-minute intensive sessions.

A typical 60-minute flow looks like this:

Warm-up & Review (10 mins): A friendly chat to get your brain in "Japanese mode."

New Concepts (20 mins): Clear, logical introduction of new grammar or vocabulary.

Interactive Practice (20 mins): The fun part! Using what you've learned through role-play or games.

Feedback & Goals (10 mins): Celebrating your progress and setting exciting targets.

【Language & Communication】 I am currently based in Sydney and comfortable communicating in English. While I prefer to use Japanese in class to help you improve faster, I am always happy to provide clear explanations in English whenever you need support. Let’s learn together with confidence!
