Award-Winning Japanese Tutors
serving Miami, FL

As an Asian Studies major at Duke, Caitlin engages with Japanese language in an academic context that goes beyond textbook dialogues — she understands how kanji, hiragana, and katakana each function within the writing system and why particles like は and が trip up English speakers. She walks through sentence structure and honorific levels with cultural context that makes the grammar patterns memorable.

Having majored in Japanese at SUNY Albany, James doesn't just know the language — he understands the grammar architecturally, from particle usage and verb conjugation tiers to the nuances of honorific speech. He teaches reading and writing through cultural context, connecting kanji compounds to their historical roots so students retain them long-term rather than cramming and forgetting. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a great tutor because not only are my fundamental verbal and quantitative skills strong, but I am able to communicate my reasoning and problem solving skills quickly and clearly.

I am studying Chemical Biology in UC Berkeley. One of my passions is Organic Chemistry, which I used to loath but now enjoys after taking a year of it. Also, because I like helping others, I enjoys tutoring/teaching students who are struggling. During high school, I have tutored other high students after school on various subjects such as Math, Physics, Chemistry, and Latin. During college, I have held informal review sessions for General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry for my underclassmen. I tutored my roommate and one of my underclassmen in Organic Chemistry. Finally, with a Graduate Student TA, I co-taught a Organic Chemistry Lab class section , where I answer questions regarding lab material and demonstrate lab techniques. Currently, I am interested in tutoring Organic Chemistry, General Chemistry, Biochemistry, Physics, and Calculus

Cori is pursuing a Japanese minor at MIT, which means she's actively working through the grammar structures, kanji readings, and particle usage that trip up most learners. That proximity to the learning process gives her a practical sense of what sticks and what needs extra repetition.

Studying Japanese as a minor at Columbia — with plans to eventually work in Japan's renewable energy sector — Shin uses the language as a living tool, not just a classroom exercise. He teaches everything from hiragana and katakana basics to intermediate grammar patterns like ～てしまう and ～ことにする, adjusting to each student's level and building real conversational confidence alongside written accuracy.

Holding a degree in Japanese Studies, Andrew brings deep familiarity with not just hiragana, katakana, and kanji but also the cultural context that shapes how the language actually works — keigo politeness levels, sentence-ending particles, and the logic behind counter words. He connects grammar patterns to real conversation so students internalize structures instead of just drilling flashcards.

I'm a candidate for a B.S. in Business Administration at Northeastern University. In addition to tutoring, I enjoy playing the tuba and learning about transportation engineering/planning. I'm also fully Japanese and can read, write, and speak the language. As someone who scored 1530 on the SAT and 800 on the Math II subject test, I'd love to assist you in preparing for college!

Zhaleh is actively studying Japanese at Carnegie Mellon University, which means she's navigating the same kanji memorization strategies, grammar particle distinctions, and reading comprehension challenges her students face. She breaks down tricky structures like て-form conjugations and は vs. が usage in ways that make the logic behind the language click.

Sho teaches Japanese with attention to the details that trip up English speakers most — particle usage, verb conjugation groups, and the shift between casual and polite registers. Whether a student is learning hiragana for the first time or working through intermediate kanji and grammar patterns, he brings structured practice to a language that rewards consistency.

Shona's semester abroad in Seville proved that immersion reshapes how you learn any language — a lesson she carries into teaching Japanese, where she emphasizes building comfort with sentence patterns and particles through active use rather than translation drills. Her AP Japanese Language and Culture tutoring draws on both her structured math-trained thinking and her own experience navigating a second language in real-world settings. Rated 4.9 by students.

I'm back at school at NYU, studying for a more general liberal arts degree.

Between his East Asian Studies major at Harvard, his presidency of the Harvard College Japan Initiative, and his work in the Yenching Library's Japanese Collection, Shane lives and breathes Japanese. He reads novels and plays games in Japanese for fun, which means he teaches the language the way it's actually used — from kanji recognition and particle usage to the register shifts that textbooks barely cover.

As a native Japanese speaker who has also worked professionally as an interpreter, Sonya understands both languages from the inside — the particles, sentence-final expressions, and politeness shifts that sound natural versus textbook-stiff. Her bilingual preschool volunteering sharpened her ability to explain concepts at any level, from first encounters with hiragana to nuanced keigo distinctions that even intermediate learners struggle with.
