Why Learning Japanese Can Make Your Child Stand Out

Learning Japanese is so much more than a hobby; it's a skill that shows dedication, cultural curiosity, and a unique intellectual drive that universities really value. Imagine your child confidently discussing Japanese grammar or culture in a university interview. Mastering the basics of Hiragana and Katakana or getting to grips with Kanji is a real achievement that can strengthen their application for competitive courses at universities like Swansea University or Cardiff University, opening doors to a world of opportunities.

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...

Kurumi F
Experienced & relaxed Japanese tutor for all levels learners
Hi, I'm Kurumi! :)I'm a native Japanese tutor who is originally from Hokkaido, the north island of Japan but currently live in Bristol. I started tutoring since I came to the UK so now I have nearly 5 years of experience. Although I'm originally an engineer, my tutoring carrer began before then, when I was a uni student. At the time I was working as a part time tutor at evening classes and I really enjoyed it.So since I moved to the UK, I decided to start this carrer again. I had several students in Glasgow and since I moved to Bristol, I've got more students and tutoring them every day. My classes...

We’ve only had a few lessons but my daughter is really enjoying her lessons so far! She just wanted to learn Japanese for fun and Sally has a warm and thorough approach which is just right for my 10 year old. Would recommend!

Natsumi is a really fun and engaging teacher. Even when I make mistakes she takes the time to review them until I am comfortable to continue. I’m looking forward to our next lesson for the foreseeable. ありがとう

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 :)

Masato I
Esme has only had a few sessions with Masato but we are very impressed. His teaching style is very visual and easy to follow. He has a lovely mannerism and personability, very bubbly. 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

Can a tutor help my child use their Japanese skills to strengthen a UCAS application for Swansea University or Cardiff University?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students frame their unique skills for UCAS applications. They can help your child work towards a recognised qualification or articulate their passion and dedication in a personal statement, making them a more memorable candidate for competitive courses.

My child's school in Swansea doesn't offer Japanese. How can a tutor fill this gap?

This is a very common reason parents come to us. A private tutor can provide a structured learning path that a school might not offer, covering everything from beginner-level grammar and writing systems to advanced conversational skills, ensuring your child's interest is nurtured and developed seriously.

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

It's a really personal choice. We recommend watching tutors' introductory videos, reading reviews from other parents, and using our messaging system to chat with a few before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with and feel comfortable learning from.

How much does a Japanese tutor cost in Swansea?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter your search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

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

We know how important the right fit is. 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 do online lessons actually work?

They take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. It’s a secure and engaging space where your child can learn from the comfort of home, at a time that works for you.

My child is shy. How can a tutor help build their confidence?

One-to-one tutoring is fantastic for building confidence. It provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors are brilliant at celebrating small wins and adapting their teaching style to make learning feel positive and encouraging.

Are your tutors qualified to teach Japanese?

Yes. Every tutor's qualifications are listed on their profile for you to see. We have a mix of native speakers, university students, and qualified teachers. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and all are background-checked, so you can find an expert you trust.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one hour a week is a great place to start, as it provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, you can arrange sessions as often as you and your tutor feel is needed to meet your child's goals.

Is your platform safe for my child?

Your child's safety is our top priority. All tutors undergo a background check, and all lessons are recorded for safeguarding purposes. Our secure platform ensures all communication and learning happens in a safe environment.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child also learn something like guitar or coding?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the curriculum! From learning to play the guitar or piano to mastering coding languages like Python, we have expert tutors who can support your child's hobbies and personal development too.

My child is shy. How can a tutor help build their confidence?
