About Yuriko
Hello and welcome! My name is Yuriko.
I see myself not as a traditional, one-way teacher, but as your dedicated, supportive learning companion. My goal is to walk alongside you, listening closely to your needs, adapting to your unique pace, and guiding you toward real confidence in Japanese—whether for personal enjoyment, travel, or professional growth.
My background spans over 20 years in corporate Japan, years of experience as a certified yoga instructor, and completion of the Japanese Teacher Training program at the Japan Society in New York (alongside my bachelor's degree from Gakushuin University in Tokyo). These diverse experiences allow me to combine formal teaching methods with deep real-world insights, all delivered in a patient, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you can feel completely comfortable making mistakes and growing at your own speed.
No matter where you are starting from, you don’t have to navigate this language journey alone. I look forward to supporting you every step of the way!

In my sessions, the focus is always on you. I tailor every lesson to match your specific goals, learning style, and daily rhythm, ensuring a relaxed and encouraging space where you feel truly supported.
What I Bring to Our Lessons:
☆Real-World Experience: With over 20 years in corporate Japan, I provide authentic, practical insights into modern Japanese culture, workplace etiquette, and natural communication.
☆A Mindful, Patient Approach: Drawing from my background as a yoga instructor, I emphasize active listening, patience, and a comfortable atmosphere where you can ask questions freely and practice without pressure.
☆Structured & Practical Pedagogy: Grounded in my formal training at the Japan Society in New York, I offer personalized lessons for all levels—from complete beginners and travel enthusiasts to working professionals.
Whether you want to master casual conversation, prepare for a trip, or refine your professional Japanese, we will build a learning path together that works just for you!
