About Noriko

<Do any of these sound familiar?>

・You have studied Japanese with textbooks, apps or language classes, but still struggle to use it in real conversations.
・You understand some Japanese, but find it difficult to respond quickly when someone speaks to you.
・You know vocabulary and grammar, but do not feel confident speaking or listening.
・Japanese numbers, prices, time, dates or counters make you feel confused.
・You want lessons that focus on what you need now, rather than simply following a textbook in a fixed order.

If any of these sound familiar, I would be happy to support you.

Hello, my name is Noriko. I am a native Japanese speaker living in Nagano, Japan.

I have more than five years of experience teaching mathematics online to primary and secondary school students in one-to-one lessons.

Through this experience, I have developed the ability to notice where a student is struggling, even through small changes in their facial expression, voice or reaction. I carefully adjust my explanations and lesson content so that each student can understand step by step and regain confidence.

I do not believe that every student should learn in exactly the same way. Each person has different goals, interests, strengths and difficulties. That is why I provide flexible and personalized support based on what you need at that moment.

I am also a mother of three children. My eldest daughter is currently studying in France, so I understand how difficult and sometimes stressful it can be to study, live and communicate in another language.

You do not need to be afraid of making mistakes in my lessons. I will listen carefully, respect your pace and help you recognize what you can already do.

I am very happy to meet students in Australia who are interested in Japan and the Japanese language. I would love to help you turn the Japanese you have studied into Japanese you can actually use.

I look forward to meeting you and supporting your learning journey.

【Have you studied Japanese before, but still find it difficult to speak, understand or respond in real-life situations?】

My lessons help you turn the Japanese you have learned into Japanese you can actually use.

I do not simply follow a textbook page by page. Every lesson is personalized according to your level, goals, interests and what you need at that time.

<What we can practice>

・Natural daily conversation
・Speaking, listening and responding in real-life situations
・Asking questions and expressing your thoughts
・Pronunciation, intonation and natural reactions such as aizuchi
・Japanese for shopping, appointments, transport and everyday activities
・Numbers, prices, time, dates, quantities, counters and units
・Hiragana, katakana and basic grammar when needed
・Japanese used at school, including math vocabulary and word problems

We will use realistic conversations, role-plays, pictures and practical examples. Rather than only memorizing vocabulary and grammar, you will practice how to listen, understand and respond naturally.

You can choose the areas you want to focus on. For example, we can spend more time on conversation, listening, pronunciation, grammar or expressions you need for a particular situation.

I am particularly good at helping students who become confused by Japanese numbers or find it difficult to respond quickly in conversation. We will identify exactly where the difficulty begins and practice it step by step.

<Your personalized lesson notes>

After each lesson, I will share notes summarizing the words, expressions and practice from the class. These notes are created especially for you.

As we continue learning together, they will gradually become your own personalized Japanese textbook, which you can use to review and see your progress.

Lesson length and content can be adjusted according to your age, level, goals and individual needs.

My lessons are suitable for beginner and elementary-level learners, as well as people who have studied Japanese before but still do not feel confident using it in real conversations. Adults and children are both welcome.

Lessons are mainly conducted in clear and simple Japanese, with simple English support when necessary.

You do not need to speak perfectly. Mistakes are welcome. Let’s practice the Japanese you need and build the confidence to use it in real life.
