Maki K.

Private tutor in Vancouver, Canada

Education

I took 420 hours Japanese Language Instructor Training Course.

Experience

Since 2000, I taught private Japanese lessons in Vancouver, BC, Canada, helping more than 400 students from business professionals and high schoolers to casual learners and homemakers. Many of them passed the JLPT with excellent scores (some even got perfect marks!), moved to Japan for work or study, or simply fell in love with the language and culture. I also spent 2 years as a teacher at a private Japanese language school in BC. In 2025, I returned to Japan and now teach Japanese online, the same warm, personalized lessons, but more flexible for students everywhere! Whether you’re in Vancouver, elsewhere in Canada, or anywhere around the world, I’m here to support you. Various options are available, depending on what you need, and how much time you have. Japanese grammar, reading and writing, test preparation, pronunciation, fluency, speed, common phrases, slang, business culture, Japanese etiquette, ceremony etiquette, etc.
