About Shino
Konnichiwa! I’m Shino, a native Japanese teacher living in Okinawa, Japan. I also hold a teaching license in Japan.
Maybe you’re already learning Japanese with a textbook, at school or university, through apps or YouTube, or while preparing for the JLPT.
You probably know more Japanese than you think.
So now, let’s actually use it!
I want my lessons to be a place where you can try out all the Japanese you’ve been learning.
I love talking to people and hearing their stories — and I laugh a lot!
My students often tell me they feel relaxed and comfortable talking about themselves in my lessons.
Your Japanese doesn’t have to be perfect. Mistakes are absolutely okay.
Bring the Japanese you already know, the things you’re currently studying, and everything you want to talk about.
Let’s use it together!

■ You’ll do most of the talking!
This isn’t a lesson where I talk the whole time and you just listen.
Work, school, travel, hobbies, friends, something that happened this week...
Tell me about you — in Japanese!
As we talk, you’ll have moments like:
“Ah! So this is when I can use that grammar!”
“I finally used that word I already knew!”
“Oh, so this is how a Japanese person would say it!”
Can’t find the Japanese for something you want to say?
That’s okay. That’s where we discover new Japanese together.
■ We don’t just talk and forget
New vocabulary, natural expressions, and things you had trouble saying are added to a shared Google Doc.
You can go back to it anytime after the lesson and review what you learned.
Talk → discover → review → use it again.
You’re not only using the Japanese you already know — you’re adding new Japanese every time we talk.
■ Lessons adapted to you
I mainly teach lower-intermediate to advanced learners, with conversation at the center of our lessons.
Rather than using the same curriculum for everyone, I adapt each lesson to what you’re currently studying and what you want to be able to do in Japanese.
Depending on your goals, we can also work on:
・Using grammar you’ve studied in real conversations
・Natural Japanese expressions and vocabulary
・Textbooks
・Discussions using articles
・Writing
・Keigo (polite and honorific Japanese)
・Interview preparation
Talk a lot. Make mistakes. Laugh. Learn something new. Then try it again.
Little by little, let’s turn the Japanese you know into Japanese that truly feels like your own.
I’m looking forward to hearing your story in Japanese!
