Being based in a Japanese primary school, I learnt how to read and write kanji, hiragana, and katakana, using the methods that a native speaker would. I can tutor beginner’s(A1), conversational, GCSE and N5 level. I can teach online or at my home, and can either be one-on-one or as part of a small group. I will provide lesson materials and you don’t need any prior Japanese language knowledge for my classes.
