Hi, there! Olá! I'm Saki.
I'm a native Japanese speaker from Okayama-ken, Japan.
Currently I live in Brazil. I speak Japanese, English (intermediate) and Portuguese (intermediate).
Working as Japanese teacher over 7 years online and offline, I have experience of teaching Japanese for students of various age (3-80 years-old) and level from all over the world who have different objectives to learn Japanese. Not only in language school or online platform, I also helped foreign kids who live in Japan to learn Japanese at elementary school in Japan.
I always try to make the best lesson for each student. I customize lessons and adjust speaking speed and homework. And not only I teach Japanese language, but also Japanese culture too!
In all lessons (except lesson for kids) includes a note for new grammar/vocabulary or mistakes, short feedback / comment (would be small reading exercise) and quick review of previous lesson at the beginning or end of the lesson. I share all of them with you on Google document.Here is specific lesson type, but of course, we can talk about our lesson plan!

Saki-san is an incredible teacher. I have been studying Japanese for several years now and she is possibly the first tutor/teacher I've had who really pushes me to learn. I find that I remember a lot more vocabulary and grammar points over long term by studying with her.

Saki is an amazing teacher. Studying with her has helped push my ability to understand more Japanese, both spoken and written. She's incredibly patient and great at coming up with conversation topics. I highly recommend working with her!

Saki D is very professional, well prepared and responsive to my questions. The series of lessons has been invaluable in introducing me to the Japanese language and practices for a tourist.
