About Aya
Konnichiwa, my name is Aya!
I’m a Japanese language tutor who truly enjoys supporting and encouraging people on their Japanese language journey.
If you truly want to speak Japanese with confidence, I offer practical, supportive lessons focused on real-life communication.
I lived in Canada for six years, and as an adult English learner myself, I understand how challenging it can be to learn a new language and speak when you’re not confident yet. In my lessons, you can ask questions, make mistakes, and express yourself without worrying about being perfect. I’ll support you at your own pace and help you build confidence.
For intermediate learners and above, I also offer a 「News & Culture Discussion」course to practice natural conversation while exploring Japanese news, culture, and everyday topics.
I love traveling, nature, baking, and connecting with people from different cultures. I’ve also backpacked through many countries!
If you’re nervous about speaking Japanese, don’t worry. You don’t have to be perfect from the beginning. Let’s work together toward those moments when you can think, “I can actually communicate in Japanese!”
I'm looking forward to meeting you in our first lesson!

Perfect! Aya is a wonderful tutor with a talent for understanding the importance of where someone is at in their language learning. She has helped immensely and will recommend her as a tutor if you’re wanting to learn Japanese. Her knowledge of duality in cultures is so refreshing and we appreciated every lesson. Thank you Aya!
