About Yuki
About Me Native Japanese Instructor with Professional Teaching Experience Hello! I'm a passionate Japanese language instructor from Hokkaido, Japan, now based in Montreal, Canada. As a native Japanese speaker with professional teaching experience, I bring authentic language knowledge and effective educational methods to my students. Professional Background With over 5 years of teaching experience, I've had the privilege of guiding more than 100 students through their learning journeys, achieving a remarkable 95% completion rate. My professional experience includes creating comprehensive curriculum materials, developing personalized learning plans, and adapting teaching methods to diverse learning styles. Prior to teaching, I gained valuable experience in corporate environments in Japan, which enriches my ability to teach practical, real-world Japanese for business contexts. My background in psychology and applied communication further enhances my teaching approach, allowing me to connect with students and facilitate effective learning. Teaching Philosophy I believe language learning should be practical, engaging, and culturally immersive. My teaching philosophy centers on: Real-world application: Focusing on Japanese you'll actually use in everyday situations Cultural context: Integrating authentic cultural elements that bring the language to life Personalized approach: Adapting to each student's goals, learning style, and pace Systematic progression: Building skills logically with regular review and reinforcement Balanced development: Equal attention to speaking, listening, reading, and writing My Japanese Language Journey Having grown up in Japan and now living in Canada, I understand both the beauty of Japanese and the challenges English speakers face when learning it. This dual perspective allows me to anticipate common difficulties and provide helpful strategies to overcome them. I'm continuously deepening my own language education expertise through professional development and staying current with the latest teaching methodologies. My experience learning other languages (including English and elementary Tagalog) gives me insight into the language acquisition process from a learner's perspective. Teaching Credentials Native Japanese fluency with cultural expertise Professional working proficiency in English Experience creating and implementing Japanese language curriculum Background in educational mentoring and materials development Specialized knowledge of JLPT test preparation Expertise in both formal and conversational Japanese Personal Touch Outside of teaching, I enjoy exploring connections between Japanese culture and other cultures around the world. I'm particularly interested in how language shapes perception and cultural understanding. I love sharing authentic aspects of Japanese culture—from traditional arts to modern pop culture—that enhance the language learning experience. My teaching style is patient, encouraging, and detail-oriented. I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable experimenting with new language skills while receiving constructive guidance for improvement. I look forward to being part of your Japanese language journey and helping you achieve your learning goals!

# About My Japanese Lessons
# My Teaching Approach
As a native Japanese speaker with extensive teaching experience, I offer a unique learning environment that balances structured language acquisition with authentic cultural immersion. My lessons go beyond textbook Japanese to help you develop practical communication skills you can actually use in real-life situations.
# Personalized Learning Experience
Every student's journey with Japanese is unique. That's why I begin with a comprehensive assessment of your:
- Current Japanese proficiency
- Learning goals (travel, business, cultural interest, anime/manga, JLPT preparation)
- Preferred learning style
- Available study time
Based on this assessment, I create a customized learning plan tailored specifically to your needs and goals, ensuring efficient progress and maintaining your motivation throughout the learning journey.
# Teaching Methodology
My teaching combines several proven approaches:
**Communicative Method:** Learning through authentic conversation practice, focusing on practical expressions you'll actually use.
**Cultural Integration:** Japanese language and culture are inseparable. I incorporate cultural context, customs, and etiquette into every lesson to deepen your understanding.
**Progressive Structure:** Lessons build systematically on previous knowledge, with regular review sessions to reinforce learning.
**Balanced Skill Development:** Equal attention to all four language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
**Interactive Learning:** Engaging activities, role-plays, and immersive exercises that make learning enjoyable and effective.
# A Typical Lesson
Each 60-minute lesson follows a clear structure designed for maximum engagement and retention:
1. **Warm-up conversation** (5-10 minutes): Practice previous material in natural conversation
2. **Review of homework and previous concepts** (10 minutes): Reinforce learning through quick exercises
3. **Introduction of new material** (20 minutes): Present new vocabulary, grammar, or cultural concepts
4. **Guided practice** (15 minutes): Apply new knowledge through interactive activities
5. **Free practice** (10 minutes): Use new skills in realistic conversation scenarios
6. **Homework assignment and preview of next lesson** (5 minutes): Prepare for continued learning
# What Sets My Lessons Apart
**Authentic Native Perspective:** As a Japanese native, I provide accurate pronunciation, natural expressions, and cultural insights that non-native teachers simply cannot offer.
**Practical Focus:** My lessons emphasize usable Japanese for real-world situations rather than just academic knowledge. You'll learn how Japanese people actually speak today.
**Curriculum Development Experience:** I've created and refined educational materials for years, allowing me to provide high-quality, effective learning resources tailored to your needs.
**Progress Tracking System:** Regular assessments and progress reports help you see your improvement and stay motivated throughout your learning journey.
# Who My Lessons Are For
My Japanese lessons are designed for:
**Absolute Beginners:** Starting from zero with a gentle introduction to Japanese sounds, writing systems, and basic expressions.
**Intermediate Learners:** Expanding vocabulary and grammar while developing more natural conversation skills.
**Advanced Students:** Refining fluency, nuance, and cultural understanding to reach near-native proficiency.
**Specialized Learners:**
- Business professionals preparing for work with Japanese companies
- Travelers planning trips to Japan
- Students preparing for JLPT certification (N5-N1)
- Anime and manga enthusiasts wanting to enjoy content without translations
- Those interested in Japanese culture, history, and traditions
Lesson formats include one-on-one private sessions, small group classes (2-4 students), in-person lessons in Montreal, and online options via video conferencing, with flexible scheduling to accommodate your lifestyle.
