Hi! I’m Aiko, a native Japanese teacher who loves anime, manga, and games.

Thanks for reading my guide.
If you’re just starting Japanese, even if you’re still learning hiragana —or simply want to enjoy casual conversation, you’re very welcome.
My one-on-one online lessons are flexible and relaxed. There’s no pressure to speak perfectly — mistakes are always welcome😊
