About Aiko
Hajimemashite! My name is Aiko. I’m biracial, born in Japan, and passionate about teaching languages. I speak Japanese, English, and Portuguese, and I’m currently learning Chinese. Having learned multiple languages myself, I understand the challenges of the process and believe that patience and persistence make progress possible. My goal as a teacher is to help students overcome barriers and reach their goals. I use images, real-life texts, and videos to make learning easier and more enjoyable. I hope to make your learning journey pleasant. I’ve been teaching Japanese on other platforms for about two years, and I’m excited to be new here. I also have experience with translation, including doctor’s appointments, books, documents, and more.

What to Expect in My Lessons
• I use my own materials with real japanese conversations
• Lessons include real Japanese phrases used in daily life.
• I customize lessons based on your goals—JLPT, scholarships, anime, or just for fun.
• The lesson will be in Japanese, as much as possible.
For Beginners
• We start with Hiragana.
• As you learn, we’ll cover basic grammar and vocabulary using the characters you've mastered.
If You Already Know Hiragana
• We’ll begin learning Kanji.
• I teach Kanji by breaking it down, using colors, explaining origins, and creating stories to help you remember.
• You’ll learn how to use Kanji in phrases and grammar.
• Each class includes at least two grammar points you can use right away.
At the End of Each Lesson
- I’ll ask you questions in Japanese based on what we learned.
- You’ll be able to answer in Japanese by the end of class :)
- Once you reach N5 level, we can also learn through anime, manga, and music!
Reviews
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience had by the students of Aiko.
Perfect! Aiko is fantastic! I highly recommend her to anyone starting to learn Japanese. She has been so patient and kind from our first lesson to now! I already feel like I've learned more from her in these last 2 months then I would have in 6 months of just self study.
Even when I ask the same question over and over again, she always takes the time to explain everything clearly. She creates a very friendly and comfortable environment to learn, I've been very happy with her as my tutor 10/10 :)- Cassie san is such a wonderful student!Aiko's response :
She is always polite, punctual, and consistently dedicated. She’s currently working on N5 grammar and kanji, and her progress has been great!
She’s kind, always completes her homework, and takes the initiative to review everything on her own, which really shows that she is comitted.
It has truly been a pleasure and an honor to have her as my Japanese student!!!

I’ve been learning with Aiko for a year and a half, and I like her a lot! Her method focuses on everyday Japanese, and she got me listening and speaking from the very beginning. Now I feel ready to do anything in Japanese, even travel, talk to locals, and handle daily situations. Thank you, Aiko!
I definitely recommend this teacher for those who wanna take good lessons with a real native speaker
Aiko is such a dedicated and passionate teacher! You can really see how much she loves what she does. Her teaching method is effective and easy to follow, and she’s always very patient and attentive with her students. I truly recommend her classes.
Honestly, she’s one of the best teachers I’ve ever had. She explains everything in such a simple and clear way that even the hard stuff feels easy. She’s super patient, kind, and really cares about her students. Every class with her makes me feel more confident. I’m really lucky to have her as my teacher.
