Hello! I'm SAKI ☺︎
I offer lessons in both
art and
Japanese.
My goal is to create friendly, easy-to-understand lessons that inspire learners to continue their studies even after the session is over.
[Japanese Language Lessons] My lessons focus on natural conversation to help you express yourself more fluently in Japanese.
I also support learners preparing to enter art universities in Japan, with a focus on relevant vocabulary and expressions.
※ I mainly teach using the direct method (teaching Japanese in Japanese).Recommended for: ✓ Learners who want to speak Japanese more naturally
✓ Those preparing for art university entrance in Japan
Lesson Examples: ・
Free Talk with a Theme + Feedback Notes (25 minutes) ・Japanese for Art University Preparation (Coming Soon)
[Art & Design Lessons] Perfect for beginners!
My lessons are designed to be fun and accessible using familiar materials, even online.
Recommended for: ✓ Those who want to learn drawing and line art
✓ Those who want to start creating art with affordable, everyday materials
Lesson Examples: ・
Drawing Critique (25 minutes) ・Art with 100-yen Materials! Beginner-Friendly Illustration (Coming Soon)
・Masterpieces in Chigiri-e Collage (Coming Soon)
[Before Your Lesson] ・Please keep your camera on during the lesson (let me know in advance if that’s difficult).
・Recording of lessons is not allowed.
・For the best quality, I recommend using Zoom.
・Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions!
