About AK
Do you understand Japanese grammar, but freeze when it’s time to speak?
Turn your GENKI studies into real, natural conversations!
When I first spoke English in Canada, I was terrified of making mistakes. That experience taught me one huge lesson: Confidence grows when you feel safe to speak, make mistakes, and practice consistently! :)
As a native Japanese tutor with formal training in Japanese teaching methodology (including teaching practice) and an i-TESOL certification (TOEIC 960), I welcome positive, dedicated learners who want to build real speaking skills step-by-step.
Why Dedicated Learners Choose My Lessons:
★ 80–90% Student Speaking Time: Active, hands-on practice—no passive listening!
★ Structured & Clear Progress: We connect grammar and vocabulary directly to real-life speech.
★ Positive & Safe Environment: Mistakes are welcome! I focus on patient guidance, praise, and celebrating your progress.
A little about me: I love dogs, wombats, sunsets, Hazy IPA, and Shiraz! ♡ (Lived in Belgium, Canada and Australia)

Warm-up: Relaxed conversation to get into the Japanese mindset (plus Hiragana/Katakana/Kanji practice if needed).
Pronunciation & Core Focus: Quick pronunciation check on target vocabulary & 1–2 grammar points.
Guided Speaking Practice: Build sentences step-by-step with patient feedback.
Real-Life Practice: Talk about your life and thoughts using what you learned!

I highly recommend AK to any student looking for a teacher who inspires trust, confidence, and motivation.
I have known AK for three years, and from the beginning, she has made me feel comfortable while also encouraging me to challenge myself. She is well-prepared, dedicated, and committed to making learning feel achievable with the right effort and commitment.
Beyond her excellent teaching skills, AK is a wonderful person with valuable experiences from different countries that enrich the way she connects with and supports her students. I strongly recommend her as both an outstanding teacher and an inspiring human being.While working in Australia together it was interesting and fun learning from Ayuka many Japanese phrases and culture. Her excellent communication skills, respectful and friendly manner created conversations which were enjoyable and easy.
I love my lessons with her! I appreciated that she took the time to understand my level so from the first class we could get right into it. I feel like her classes are the right amount of support and encouragement! I would definitely recommend taking her lessons!
What sets Ayuka apart is her genuine dedication to her students. She cares about helping each person achieve their goals and tailors her teaching to suit the individual. She explains concepts in a way that’s easy to understand, making every lesson enjoyable while building confidence.
Ayuka is kind, patient, encouraging, and approachable.Ayuka and I worked together in Australia and she taught me Japanese words in our spare time. She is a very fun and patient teacher, a beautiful person and such a kind soul.
I met AK while we were studying together, and I really enjoyed getting to know her. She is friendly, supportive, and always willing to help. Her patience and positive attitude make her someone people feel comfortable learning from. I'm sure she'll be a wonderful Japanese teacher, and I highly recommend her to future students.
We worked together for a couple years and she has been helping me learn Japanese! She has been incredibly patient and clear in her teachings, I have not had a better or more understanding teacher!
