About Manaka
◆ 10+ YEARS OF PROFESSIONAL TEACHING EXPERIENCE ◆
I am a native Japanese educator with a global academic background (Master’s from University of Birmingham, UK; Alum of University of California, US).
Having mastered English as a second language myself, I specialize in bridging the gap between English logic and Japanese structure. Whether you are an adult professional seeking cultural fluency or a parent looking for formal "KOKUGO" (Japanese school curriculum) for your child, I provide a structured, supportive, and highly effective learning environment.

◆ CUSTOM-TAILORED STRATEGIES FOR YOUR SPECIFIC GOALS ◆
My lessons go beyond simple phrases. I provide a deep understanding of Japanese logic, perfect for:
FOR ADULTS & PROFESSIONALS: Master the "Why" behind the "What." I provide clear, English-based explanations of complex grammar and sentence structures. We don't just study—we analyze the CULTURAL CONTEXT of Keigo (formal) vs. Tameguchi (casual), ensuring you speak naturally and confidently in any social setting.
FOR JLPT CANDIDATES: Focused, results-oriented training from N5 to N1. I use my 10+ years of expertise to simplify Kanji and listening strategies that textbooks often miss.
FOR KIDS & HERITAGE LEARNERS (KOKUGO): I offer the same curriculum taught in Japanese public schools. From building a strong foundation in Hiragana to advanced reading comprehension and Kanji mastery, I make "Kokugo" engaging and accessible for children living abroad.
■ FLEXIBLE MATERIALS & TOOLS: We utilize the best of both worlds: professional textbooks (like Genki) and real-life resources like Anime, Manga, J-POP, and news articles. Using interactive digital tools, I ensure every lesson is visual, dynamic, and fun!

Deadly! Manaka is a fantastic tutor and has a great amount of insight as a native Japanese speaker. Her methodology is flexible depending on what's needed. Whether that is reviewing straight out of the Genki textbooks, providing supplementary lessons or giving first-hand advice, she meets you at your level and helps you find your own pace. Her conversational focus has really helped me to improve my Japanese skills in only a few month's time! She's also very friendly and always makes the lessons feel more like a conversation. I can't recommend her enough!
Deadly! Kind and diligent, I’m excited to work with her in the future.
