Kyoko

Hello! My name is Kyoka, and I am a native Japanese speaker from Japan currently studying Business in France. I am passionate about language learning, communication, and helping students enjoy the process of improving their Japanese!

My lessons are mainly aimed at beginners and lower-intermediate learners who want to build confidence and learn Japanese in a practical, enjoyable, and supportive way.
I especially welcome students who are interested in anime, manga, Japanese culture, and natural everyday conversation.

I have previous experience working as a cram school teacher in Japan, where I taught elementary and junior high school students, mainly in English, while also supporting Math and Japanese. Through this experience, I learned how to adapt my teaching style to each student’s level, needs, and personality. I always try to make lessons easy to understand, interactive, and encouraging.

In addition, I studied Global Communication, where I learned about linguistics, cognitive linguistics, and second language acquisition. This means I not only speak Japanese naturally, but I also understand how people learn languages effectively and what helps students improve step by step.
In my lessons, I focus on creating a relaxed atmosphere where students feel comfortable making mistakes and speaking with confidence.

Depending on your goals, we can work on:
Basic conversation
Pronunciation and speaking confidence
Useful everyday expressions
Grammar and vocabulary
Japanese for travel
Anime / manga-related Japanese

I can adapt each lesson to your level and interests, so learning feels more enjoyable and personal. My goal is to help you improve your Japanese while also enjoying the learning journey.
I look forward to meeting you and learning together!
