About Mikuni
Hello, I'm Mikuni. I'm a native Japanese person living in a Scottish Borders town for over 16 years. Much of the time, I've worked as a local café manager. So I'm very familiar with the culture here.
People describe me as kind and friendly. I can also sometimes be a bit quirky and funny, but in a friendly way. I also love the British sense of humour.
I don't have experience teaching Japanese as a career, but I've been married to my Scottish wife for over 20 years. We met in Japan and she speaks Japanese. I taught her Japanese long ago when we were in Japan. We mostly speak Japanese at home. Now, I am learning about Japanese grammar so that I can explain it if necessary. I want to make my classes more relatable and fun for everyone.
I like reading both in Japanese and English. My favourite writer is Kazuo Ishiguro. He is originally from my hometown, Nagasaki. I'm curious about many things. I love listening to all types of music. I like travelling, and Uzbekistan is my favourite country I've been to so far. But above all, I love living in Scotland.
If you are planning to go to Japan for travelling or studying, or if you are very into Japanese culture and want to learn Japanese seriously, I'm here for you. I set my rates reasonably so that they are accessible to anyone. Yoroshiku!

I offer relaxed Japanese lessons for beginners using the Genki textbook as a base. I’m not a professional teacher, but I’ve supported my Scottish wife’s Japanese learning throughout our 20-year marriage. If you like manga, anime, or movies, we can use them as materials too! My goal is to make learning practical, relatable, and fun for everyone.
