Hi, I'm Mina — your Japanese teacher

I help learners around the world speak Japanese naturally, one friendly lesson at a time.

はじめまして 🌸

I teach private Japanese lessons for learners who want to speak naturally and confidently. Whether you're preparing for a trip, getting ready for the JLPT, or simply want to chat in Japanese, lessons are always built around you.

My students come from all over the world and from every level — some are starting from their very first hiragana, others are fine-tuning their business Japanese. What they share is the wish to feel comfortable using the language in real life.

Lessons feel less like a textbook class and more like a friendly conversation. We go at your pace, focus on what matters to you, and celebrate the small wins along the way.
