My approach

What you can expect in every session:

- Clear lesson structure with tailored practice

- Speaking accuracy coaching (grammar, natural phrasing, pronunciation)

- Exam-style tasks and feedback especially for senior students

- Guidance on what to prioritise next for consistent progress


All lessons are conducted online using AlphaTuts integrated sessions with built-in whiteboard — no Zoom or Microsoft Teams needed. Sessions are 60 minutes. Please share any current school or JLPT materials so lessons can be tailored to your exact needs.
