Discover the secrets to wowing your Japanese friends that only an optimised learner would know...
I’m helping you with building intuitiveness, vocabulary, grammar and confidence to speak it up.
Today I've got something awesome for you...
Well, assuming you want to speak more Japanese !
01.Expertise
I, Yutaro Masuda taught Japanese for nearly 7 years in English and Mandarin. In addition to the expertise that you expect to the average Japanese teachers, my multi-linguistic background helps you learn Japanese by making effective comparison with your mother language. My expertise came from my real-life experience, more details can be found in my Biography page.
02.Experience
Since my eldest student was in his seventies, and my youngest students were school kids, I can teach a wide range of people, including you! Each of them preferred different learning approaches and methods. Through customisation and optimisation, they learnt quite effectively and I believe that’s why you need an experienced private tutor who is good at doing this. So now it’s your turn !
03.Eureka
Sick of long, boring lectures that don’t get results? Tired of mechanically memorizing vocabulary and grammatical structures without getting the spirit buried beneath them? Your school teaches you how to use them but they don’t teach you how to FEEL them so that’s why your learning is merely a series of heartless tasks. Why not start getting the feel of Japanese? I’m here to make it happen.
Imagine Speaking
Fluent Japanese
Imagine stepping up to a group of your Japanese friends…
And without even looking at your phrasebook, hitting them with rapidfire yet correct sentences, with some jokes mixed in…
You stun and freeze them, so agape and rounded eyes.
And imagine traveling freely across Japan, exploding past many cities with a Shinkansen (a bullet train). Kicking start conversations elsewhere, all the cities you have visited. Traveling without borders and speaking without psychological blocks…
You are not even sure how you made the conversations – you just “sensed” they were the right things to say...
Doing this takes a lot of skills:
Grammar, vocabulary, fluency, pronunciation, intuitiveness, Kanji, etc
And getting all those skills and speaking like this IS possible… if you are studying the right way.
In fact, if you are studying the right way, it becomes EASY.
Having some troubles with these ?
I'm curious. But just don't know where to start
Just started curious about learning Japanese? Yes it’s fun learning but it’s an enormous language so most learners find themselves lost when they’ve started it. I know the entire map of it so I can take you wherever you want to be!
I got stuck in my study. Need some assistance !
Japanese is a complex, challenging and unfairly difficult language. So it’s quite natural that the learners reach a deadlock. That’s why I am here. Helping you get out of there and move on, boosting the speed and efficiency!
My Japanese course is too difficult like nightmare
Each unit at my uni is very detailed and separate so, as we went into more details, I lost the big picture of what I am learning, I can’t relate this to that...yet the class just moves on... Private tutoring will not leave you behind !
How do I most effectively prepare for exams ?
If you are the type of learner that has problems with grammar, vocab, speaking or writing, then learning them WITH an experienced Japanese tutor helps you. It gives YOU an unfair advantage over your fellow students.
Made Accessible
For You !
If you are close to Downtown of Vancouver, then you are one of the luckiest because my primary teaching locations are Downtown and its neighboring subrubs. If you are little bit far from those areas, I can meet you atyour place (with additional reasonable travel fee.)For those who are not, the good news is, I also deliver my lessons ONLINE !!!. You can just study Japanese no matter where you are ! Please don’t hesitate to contact me, I’m here to help you with Japanese.
Japanese Made Easy
A number of my previous students told me that I have a natural ability to make things easy to understand and learn. So my “step by step” approach will guide you through every key point of a grammar point, new word etc.
One of the greatest advantage of choosing Yutaro Sensei over a course is that you can choose your own textbooks. A teaching concept that I love to follow is 因材施教 (yīn cái shī jiào) meaning that I teach in line with your interest and level. So if you want to use your favorite comic, TV show etc to learn Japanese, that’s okay. Let’s figure out your learning style and get the most out of it !
