About Hisako
Hi, I’m Hisako — a certified Japanese language teacher with over 10 years of experience helping students achieve their Japanese language goals.
Since 2011, I have taught a wide range of learners, from complete beginners to business professionals. In addition to teaching, I have supervised e-learning content, developed customized training materials for corporate clients, and mentored trainee teachers in certified teacher training programs.
I have taught in the UK, the Philippines, and Vietnam, which has given me valuable insight into different cultures, learning styles, and challenges faced by language learners. Because every student is unique, I always tailor my lessons to suit each learner’s goals, pace, and interests.
Whether you are learning Japanese for travel, work, exams, or personal enjoyment, I will support you step by step in a comfortable and encouraging learning environment.
Qualifications
• Completed a 420-hour Japanese Language Teacher Training Course at a government-accredited institute
• Minor Degree in Japanese Language and Literature
Outside of teaching, I enjoy traveling and exploring cafés. I love learning about different cultures and exchanging ideas with my students, and I look forward to learning about yours as well.
Let’s enjoy learning Japanese together!

Want to speak natural Japanese with confidence?
Do you have few opportunities to actually use your Japanese? Do mistakes make you feel stuck? Are you unsure how to start—or how to improve? Planning a trip to Japan and want to prepare properly?
You're in the right place.
I teach practical, natural Japanese that you can start using from day one. My lessons focus on active communication, especially speaking and writing, because real progress comes from using the language, not just studying it.
I help students:
• Overcome fossilized errors
• Gain fluency and communicate more naturally
• Build confidence step by step
• Turn passive knowledge into active skills
My lessons are friendly, structured, and engaging. Whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced learner, I tailor each lesson to your level, goals, and interests.
I teach:
• Absolute beginners
• Intermediate and advanced learners
• JLPT preparation (all levels)
• Conversation-focused Japanese
• Travel Japanese for beginners
• Business Japanese
Lessons take place on Zoom and last 60–90 minutes.
I use a variety of materials depending on your needs. As I am based in Japan, I can also introduce you to current, real-life Japanese usage and cultural insights that are often not covered in textbooks.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Please note: I respond to messages in English.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your Japanese language goals!
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience had by the students of Hisako.
Deadly! Kendisi profesyonel ve iletişim yönü çok güzel, oğlum severek dersi dinledi ve deneme dersi olmasına rağmen dolu dolu bir ders işlediler. Teşekkür ederim.
Deadly! Clear concise, friendly and fun. Excellent
Deadly! Hisako is very friendly which able me to feel comfortable during lesson. Her PowerPoint is well made which makes it easy to understand!
Deadly! Hisako-san has been exceptional in tailoring her teaching approach to accommodate my strengths and weaknesses effectively.
For the past 4 to 5 years, I have been learning Japanese through flashcards, reading, and some limited listening and speaking practice. While I have invested significant time, albeit intermittently, in acquiring new vocabulary, my focus on grammar and sentence structure has been comparatively minimal. Hisako-san has skillfully adapted her teaching approach to leverage my vocabulary knowledge, thereby facilitating the development of my understanding of grammar and sentence structure.
I've had around 4 lessons with Hisako-san now, and can confidently say that my Japanese has improved a significant amount in quite a short amount of time. She's very interested in answering any sort of questions you might have, and I have personally found that extremely useful!
I am forward to continuing my lessons with Hisako-san going foreward!View more reviews

Hisako is an excellent teacher who I’ve been friends with for many years. She has traveled to many English speaking countries and also has a thorough grasp of British idioms and accents.
Hisako has always been a patient and thorough teacher with a truly impressive work ethic. Her classes are fun and use a range of techniques and resources to aid memory and understand the Japanese language thoroughly.
I sincerely recommend Hisako as your next sensei!Hisako is a great tutor. She is very experienced in teaching students with various language background.
I grew from a total amateur to become semi fluent in Japanese thanks to her help.
Thank you hisako sensei.Hisako was one of my first ever Japanese teachers. She always took an interest in my personal improvement and gave me a lot of cultural understanding I could not get from the textbooks. I am very grateful for her teaching and would readily recommend her to any of my friends who are starting out in Japanese.
Hisako-sensei tutored me on Japanese for beginners. Coupled with her language proficiency as well as her immense patience in tutoring beginners with zero experience, her method of teaching went above and beyond, made grammar structure easier to understand, and inspired us students to strive to be better.
Whether learning as a fun hobby to read manga, or to prepare for JLPT cert, I would strongly recommend Hisako-sensei to other Superprof members if you have interest in learning Japanese.View more recommendations
