Why Studying Japanese Gives Your Child an Edge
Choosing Japanese for A-Level shows a level of dedication and curiosity that Russell Group universities notice. It’s far from a soft option; mastering its complex grammar and three writing systems (Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji) develops incredible discipline and analytical skills. A specialist tutor can help your child articulate this on their personal statement, turning their unique choice into a standout strength that opens doors to exciting degrees and global careers.

Aki M
Creative Japanese Tutor
Hi I'm Aki, an experienced Japanese teacher. I've been tutoring students in the United Kingdom for over 6 years. I taught a variety of students: e.g. young children (primary school), teenagers (GCSE /A-level), university students, and adults up to over 60 years old. Most of them are beginner or intermediate-level learners.Let me describe my teaching style with 3 key points: 1) TEACHING MATERIALS: I mainly use my original teaching materials which are full of visual-focused explanations and custom illustrations. I believe every lesson should be customised to some extent, because of the many different...

Aki M
My 17 year old daughter has recently started lessons with Aki and is enjoying them immensely. She says she is learning a lot and likes that she gets plenty of opportunity in the lesson to practice speaking Japanese with Aki. Learning resources are excellent too and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Aki to other parents. Thank you :)

He is extremely organised an efficient, punctual and follows up with notes too. Really like his style of teaching and would highly recommend.

Ikumi M
I never imagined I would enjoy learning a new language after my school years. Ikumi fosters a warm and welcoming environment, demonstrating patience and utmost professionalism. Her preparation for each lesson is impressive, and she even assigns homework when she's unable to conduct a session. I believe I couldn't have found a better tutor and I plan to continue with her until I achieve my personal goals.
Thank you Ikumi!

Misako G
Misako is truly the best teacher I've ever had. I've been interested in Japanese and studied by myself for some time and taking up the lessons was the best step forward in my learning. I was a complete beginner at the time, but quickly lessons with Misako became the highlights of my week. I am more comfortable speaking the language and am always looking forward to learn more. ありがとうございます！

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at a competitive school in High Wycombe. Can a tutor match that academic pace for Japanese?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students from high-achieving schools. They can create a learning plan that not only keeps pace with a demanding curriculum but also stretches your child, helping them explore the subject in greater depth than is often possible in a school setting.
We're worried that A-Level Japanese might look weak on a Russell Group university application. How can a tutor help?
This is a common concern, but a tutor can help frame it as a significant strength. They can guide your child to excel in the subject, demonstrating discipline and a global mindset. Tutors can also help with personal statements, showing how the skills learned in Japanese are transferable and make them a more compelling university candidate.
How do I choose the right Japanese tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's specific goals. It's all about finding someone your child clicks with, who understands their learning style and can help them feel confident.
How much does online Japanese tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically start from around £25 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you're always in control.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed and must have a valid DBS check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help my child stay motivated while studying independently?
Studying a subject alone can be tough. A tutor provides regular, dedicated support and encouragement. They act as a guide and a mentor, celebrating successes and working through challenges together, which makes a huge difference to a student's motivation and confidence.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All sessions are recorded, so your child can re-watch them anytime to help with revision.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Japanese?
Not at all! While we support thousands of students through exams like their GCSEs and A-Levels, we also have brilliant tutors for hobbies and professional skills. Your child could learn anything from guitar and music production to coding.
What qualifications do your Japanese tutors have?
Our tutors have a wide range of qualifications, from university degrees in Japanese and teaching qualifications to native speakers with years of professional tutoring experience. You can view each tutor's full qualifications and experience on their profile.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange frequency and lesson length directly with your tutor to fit around your child's other commitments and learning goals.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
Yes, absolutely. One-to-one tutoring is perfect for targeting specific areas of weakness. A tutor can spend entire sessions practising conversation skills for an oral exam or focusing on the intricacies of writing Kanji, providing focused support that isn't always possible in a classroom.
