About Me

Hello, My name is Ayana and I am an experienced native Japanese tutor in Auckland who can help you master Japanese!  I can teach not only language skills but also Japanese cultural norms so your trip to Japan goes smoothly.

Since I started teaching Japanese in 2013, I have taught more than 130  students (ages raging from 10 to 70 years old) over the last 6 years from beginner to advanced levels. I can teach from intermediate school onwards. I have enjoyed teaching and especially the opportunity to see their progress. Please check my student’s progress this page.  I also provide translation service and essay proof reading service.

I grew up in Japan and moved to Auckland in 2011.  I have completed Graduate Diploma in Business from AUT and Bachelor of Arts (Education) in Japan. I am a professional registered Japanese translator for Auckland University.
