Fun and Engaging 1-on-1 Personalized Japanese Writing & Kanji Program

Develop your child’s Japanese writing, kanji, and self-expression skills through personalized one-on-one lessons with a certified Japanese language teacher and writing education specialist.

— For elementary and junior high school students living abroad and returnee students —

Each lesson is conducted one-on-one and carefully tailored to your child’s individual level, needs, and goals. Drawing on over 10 years of experience in teaching writing, I use engaging and personalized approaches to help each student enjoy learning Japanese through self-expression, composition, and kanji study. Students develop the ability to express themselves clearly and confidently in Japanese.

In online lesson, students work on writing exercises tailored to their level (using a structured three-step composition method), practice kanji through an engaging reading-aloud approach, and receive guidance to improve their overall Japanese skills. The focus is not only on accuracy, but also on helping students enjoy expressing their own ideas in Japanese.

Drawing on my long-term research and experience in journalism, we incorporate journaling into our program. For families who wish, we also offer parent-child shared journaling worksheets, as well as a monthly handwritten letter exchange with the instructor.

Journaling has been widely recognized for its positive impact. It not only helps improve children’s thinking and expressive abilities, but also supports emotional stability and encourages a deeper sense of self-understanding in daily life.

Students who have benefited from this program include those who:

  • want to maintain their Japanese while living abroad

  • need support with writing and kanji

  • want to build confidence in expressing themselves in Japanese

After each lesson, students receive personalized feedback on their written work. 

In addition, parents receive a monthly progress report summarizing their child’s development and areas for improvement.

Each monthly cycle consists of three weeks of classes followed by one rest week. This “quiet” period helps the brain organize and consolidate learning, supporting stronger retention and more effective language output.
