About Tsuyoshi
Based in Gifu, Japan, I am an academic expert with a BA from Keio University and an MA from Hokkaido University.
With over 15 years of experience—including 7 years lecturing at 5 universities in China—I specialize in preparing international students for the EJU General Subjects and advanced academic Japanese.
My unique teaching philosophy, "Structural Understanding," goes beyond language skills, empowering students to master Japanese culture, history, and social studies through logical frameworks. Whether you are aiming for top-tier Japanese universities or professional advancement, I provide the strategic guidance necessary for your success.

Learning Japanese with Tsuyoshi has been a truly rewarding experience. I studied with him for around 6 months one-on-one, and I’m now able to hold conversations in Japanese with confidence.
What makes Tsuyoshi stand out is his clear and patient teaching style. He takes time to explain difficult grammar points and provides plenty of opportunities to practice speaking. Since he also speaks Mandarin and English, he can explain things in multiple ways, which makes learning much easier and faster.
Beyond the language itself, Tsuyoshi always shares insights about Japanese culture, traditions, and daily life. This not only makes the lessons more enjoyable, but also gives a deeper understanding of how the language is used in real contexts.
He is professional, supportive, and always encourages his students to do their best. I am very grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn Japanese effectively.I have been learning Japanese with Tsuyoshi for over a year, and thanks to his guidance I am now able to confidently speak Japanese. He is patient, professional, and adapts his teaching style to suit the needs of his students.
One of his strengths is his ability to explain difficult concepts clearly, often drawing on his knowledge of Chinese Mandarin and English to make learning more accessible. This multilingual ability really helps bridge gaps in understanding and makes lessons smooth and effective.
Tsuyoshi is also very encouraging and creates a comfortable learning environment, which gave me the confidence to practice speaking more freely. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn Japanese in a structured yet supportive way.View more recommendations
