About Kei

I’m a native Japanese speaker currently living in Christchurch, New Zealand, and I love helping people learn Japanese in a fun and supportive way. I’m currently studying for the Japanese Language Teaching Competency Test to continue improving my teaching skills.

I have over 3 years of tutoring experience and more than 8 years of language exchange experience, so I enjoy working with students of all levels and backgrounds. I also have 2 years of administrative experience at a Japanese logistics company, so I can help with business Japanese as well.

My goal is to create relaxed and practical lessons where students can feel comfortable, build confidence, and enjoy making progress in Japanese!

About the lesson

I take a flexible, student-centered approach, tailoring lessons to suit each learner’s needs and goals. I focus on practical communication skills while building grammar and vocabulary through conversation and practice.

For beginners, we start with basic phrases and gradually build confidence and skills. For more advanced learners, I can also include complex topics and business Japanese if needed.

Lessons are typically 60 minutes long, and I offer both in-person and online lessons.

My lessons are suitable for all levels, from complete beginners to advanced learners, including university students and professionals.

Kei's response
Tay is a super motivated and hardworking student, and I love how eager she is to learn! She always brings such bright and positive energy to our lessons, and she is always willing to try new things and ask questions. I’m very confident that she will continue to improve her Japanese and do really well. I’m really looking forward to seeing her progress and having more sessions with her!

Kei's response
Marion is a very bright, motivated, and hardworking student. She always reviews the lesson thoroughly, so even though we only have one lesson per week, I can clearly see that her skills are steadily improving. She already knows quite a lot of vocabulary, so I believe that once she understands grammar more deeply, she will enjoy speaking Japanese even more. I am really looking forward to seeing her progress over the coming weeks and months! マリオンさん、ありがとうございます:))

He is a highly motivated student who always completes his homework diligently and comes to class with lots of thoughtful questions. Balancing work and study is not easy, but I’m confident he will continue to make great progress thanks to his commitment to learning. I’m really looking forward to continuing our lessons together!

He is a very hardworking and motivated student, and he continues to improve his Japanese with every lesson. I’m really excited to see his future progress! I hope I can teach him not only Japanese, but also many things about Japanese culture along the way :)

Perfect! Kei is a great teacher, she is incredibly kind, patient and puts real effort into each lesson which makes them feel tailored to my needs. She keeps track of what's been taught so the lessons flow smoothly and don't feel overwhelming. I also appreciate the revision and homework materials so I can reinforce what I've learned in between lessons.
I'm making good progress and would absolutely recommend her.

Vinny is a very impressive student who has been studying Japanese on Duolingo for over 800 days. He already knows many words and has also learned some kanji. I look forward to continuing our lessons together as he prepares for the JLPT in December.
