My main targets are ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS to intermediate who have just started on their Japanese journey. I will do a LOGICAL & STRUCTURAL approach to lead you in the right direction.
Here is what I found common struggles that my students have.
①Just don't know where to start.
②Particles!!!!!!!!
③Conjugations
④Passive/Causative/Passive-Causative
⑤てform: てくれる、てもらう、てあげる
⑥Friendly conversations / Casual Form
⑦Telling your opinion and do debate in Japanese.
If one of the above is your concern, don't worry. You found me ;p
Teaching Japanese is not my work, it is my PASSION. It always makes me very happy when I meet people who are interested in my language.
Me as a Teacher
I’m an enthusiastic, friendly, and encouraging teacher. It’s really important to me that you enjoy the classes and feel relaxed and comfortable.
My approach to teaching is very hands-on. I focus on phrases, expressions, and even slangs that are used in real-life. I demonstrate things detailed and really well. I like using body language to help you understand better. When you understand the meaning and the use, I want you to create several situations to use them to fully understand the use. We do a lot of repeated exercise to imprint the language in your instinct!! My aim is to help you to express yourself naturally and effortlessly.
My lessons & teaching style
I tailor my lessons to suit you! I prepare each class according to your language needs as well as your interests and personality.
How we proceed
1) Please feel free to message me with your level and aims, then I make a plan for you.
2) While doing trial lessons, I will tailor my lesson to cater to your needs.
3) If you like the trial, let's start full lessons with me.
Regarding scheduling, I manage my schedule across multiple platforms, and on italki, I display availability for one week at a time. I update my schedule daily. Hopefully, we can find a suitable time
◉ CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY ◉
At least 24-hour notice should be given for a lesson to be canceled or rescheduled.

Moto sensei is such a great teacher! He's very helpful no matter the level your at, and the conversations we have are very fun to me. I enjoy our lessons and they've definitely helped me improve my Japanese skills immensely. I recommend him to everyone trying to learn a new language. I look forward to many more lessons together!

Moto is incredibly patient and kind. I’ve learned a lot working with him. He always takes time to answer questions and make sure you really understand. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a teacher!

10/10. This is really a GREAT teacher. I am so happy I booked a session with him. I am about to book 1000 more. LITTERALY. With the great structure and teaching techniques of moto, I will be closer to my goals to speak and understand the amazing japanese language 😃
And his perfect english makes learning 100 times easier ⭐️

Moto Sensei’s challenges me more than any of my previous instructors. He is firm but wants to be sure I understand what we are studying.
