About Yoshi
Hello, I'm Yoshi, a native Japanese speaker, professional photographer, and author from Japan.
I've lived in different parts of Japan, including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Kanazawa, Okinawa, and Nagano. I've also traveled extensively in Japan and abroad, and these experiences are an important part of my work as a photographer and author.
I have a university background in art and education, and I enjoy creating visual and practical learning materials. My experience allows me to share not only the Japanese language, but also real-life insights into regional culture, food, travel, customs, and everyday life in Japan.
I especially enjoy helping people who want to travel in Japan, communicate naturally with Japanese people, or simply understand Japan more deeply through the language.
Every student has different interests and goals, so I adapt my teaching to the individual. Whether you're starting Japanese from zero or already know some Japanese and want to become more confident in conversation, I'll help you learn at a pace that works for you.

My lessons are mainly designed for adult beginners and lower-intermediate learners who want to use Japanese for travel, everyday life, and natural conversation.
Each lesson is personalized according to your level, interests, and goals. I prepare and adapt materials for each student, using topics that are relevant to you, such as travel, food, hobbies, work, music, movies, photography, and Japanese culture.
We can practice through dialogues and real-life role-plays, using photos, maps, menus, signs, and situations that you may actually experience in Japan.
Rather than simply memorizing grammar, you will also learn natural expressions, the differences between formal and casual Japanese, and how to communicate appropriately in different situations.
Lessons are mainly conducted in Japanese, but when necessary, I can also explain some points in English or Spanish.

Perfect! My experience with Yoshi has been great! He clearly prepares for lessons, takes lots of notes, and sends out notes after class. He’s also very patient and easy to speak to. Looking forward to learning and practicing Japanese more with Yoshi!
- Joseph is a very serious and dedicated student. He followed my explanations and the flow of the lesson very well, and he approached the lesson with a positive attitude. I also really enjoyed teaching him, and I’m looking forward to continuing our lessons together.Yoshi's response :

I had an amazing lesson with him! He took the time to create a personalized document based on my interests, personality, and learning goals, which made the lesson feel very engaging and tailored specifically to me. He is very patient, friendly, and easy to talk to, and he explained everything clearly while also making the class really fun. I could tell that he genuinely put a lot of effort into preparing the lesson, and I really appreciated that.
I highly recommend taking a lesson with him, especially if you’re looking for a teacher who goes the extra mile and makes learning Japanese feel enjoyable and personal. I’ll definitely be booking more lessons with him!I had a great lesson with this tutor! They were very well prepared and created helpful materials that matched my Japanese level. They explained everything clearly, were patient with me, and made me feel comfortable practicing. I really appreciate the time and effort they put into helping me improve my Japanese. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a kind, supportive, and well-prepared tutor!
Yoshi is amazing! I was nervous beforehand but felt immediately welcome and calm when we started our lesson. He is super friendly, patient, and professional all at once. He made a really comfortable atmosphere and I love that the notes are available to download afterwards too. Genuinely a kind person and a great teacher!
Yoshi is an Amazing Japanese Instructor! He tailored things directly to my needs, based on my current knowledge and plans for travel to Japan!
He was also very kind and professional. 5/5 ️️️️️Yoshi was a great tutor. He made personal slides based on my hobbies and interests. He was also patient with my mistakes and corrected them. He always made sure he understood what I tried to say and explained any nuances of the sentences if there were any. I would learn from him again.
I had my first lesson with Yoshi & it went beyond my expectations ! When it comes to the criteria part of the lessons, I appreciated that he was professional, organized, prepared, focused, & even tailored the lesson with some of my interests in it. This helped me stay engaged & motivated to remember what I was learning ! One thing that stood out for me, as a naturally anxious person, I was worried that I wasn’t going to be calm enough to focus or navigate through the whole lesson. But, Yoshi showed a great amount of patience & a professional way of refocusing back to the lesson that I greatly respected & appreciated! I would highly recommend him ! 10/10
Yoshi is an incredibly patient teacher and cares a lot about the comfortability of his students! We had a lesson together, and he was kind enough to prepare a personalized slideshow highlighting my areas of struggle. He also noted down anything I wasn't able to understand, and at the end we came back to review them which helped me learn those words better! His English proficiency is also great, which was really helpful for anything I couldn't explain/ask in Japanese. Overall, I learned a lot with just one lesson, and being able to practice speaking Japanese (with Yoshi to correct any mistakes) made me feel like I could definitely improve my fluency with more lessons!!
