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...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is interested in the Japanese Studies course at the University of Nottingham. Can a tutor help with their application?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with university applications. They can help your child prepare a strong personal statement that highlights their passion and knowledge of Japanese language and culture, making their application stand out.

Since Japanese isn't widely taught in Nottingham schools, can a tutor help my child get a recognised qualification?

Yes, this is a great way to formalise your child's learning. Our tutors can prepare your child for internationally recognised qualifications like the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT). Achieving a JLPT certificate is a fantastic way to officially demonstrate their language ability to universities.

What if my child doesn't click with their first Japanese tutor?

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the right Japanese tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific goals and ensure they're a good match.

Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and we've verified their ID. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be completely confident in their quality.

How do online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

How much do online Japanese tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and start from £15 per hour. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly displayed on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that a one-hour lesson once a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's routine.

Can tutoring help my child build confidence as well as knowledge?

Definitely. One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor can do wonders for a child's confidence. Having a safe space to ask questions and make mistakes helps them feel more capable and positive about their abilities, which often translates to other areas of their life too.

Is tutoring only for academic subjects like Japanese, or can you help with other skills like music or coding?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So while we can certainly help your child master Japanese, we also have expert tutors who can teach everything from guitar and piano to coding languages like Python, and even support with personal development skills.

What age groups do you cater for?

We have tutors who specialise in teaching all age groups, from primary school children just starting their learning journey, through to GCSE and A-Level students, and even adults learning for university or a hobby.

How much do online Japanese tutors cost?

You can get started very quickly. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you could have your first lesson booked in just a few clicks. It's why we have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews.
