Information
Nice to meet you! I'm Shizue.Do you ever feel like...
"I know the grammar, but I still can't speak naturally."
If so, you're not alone.
My specialty is helping students turn textbook Japanese into natural Japanese that people actually use in everyday conversations.
Before becoming a Japanese teacher, I worked for many years as a department store and apparel manager, where communication with customers was essential. Later, I also worked as a childcare teacher.
Through these experiences, I realized that being grammatically correct isn't always enough to communicate well in Japanese.
Of course, correct grammar and polite Japanese are important.
However, in real life—whether at work or in everyday situations—what matters even more is choosing the right way to speak for the person and the situation.
Even in business, people don't always speak in the stiff, textbook-style Japanese that many learners study.
Good communication is about being polite while also sounding warm, natural, and approachable.
In my lessons, I don't just explain grammar.
I'll also show you things like:
- "This is how Japanese people would naturally say it."
- "This expression sounds softer and more friendly."
You'll learn the Japanese that people actually use in daily life.
Whether your goal is JLPT, conversation, customer service, or business Japanese, I'll tailor each lesson to your level and your needs.
Let's work together to turn the Japanese you know into Japanese you can use naturally and confidently!
I look forward to meeting you in class!

Many people have studied Japanese for a long time but still feel they can't speak naturally in conversation.
In my lessons, we'll practice rephrasing your Japanese to fit different situations. You'll learn how to express yourself naturally in a variety of contexts—from professional conversations at work to casual chats with friends and family.
Rather than using overly formal or textbook expressions, you'll practice saying the same thing in a more natural, heartfelt way.
Through repeated rephrasing exercises, you'll develop more natural conversational skills and gain the confidence to speak Japanese with ease.
Lesson Style
Real-Time Learning Document
During each lesson, we'll create a personalized learning document together in real time. We'll record new vocabulary, useful expressions, corrections, and notes as we go, so you can review everything after the lesson.
Your Japanese Journey Notebook
After every lesson, I'll update your notebook with the expressions, vocabulary, grammar points, and personalized notes you've learned. It becomes your own growing record of your Japanese journey.
