Award-Winning Japanese Tutors
serving Atlanta, GA

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.

Briana minored in Japanese at Michigan State, giving her a grounded understanding of the language's grammar patterns, particle usage, and writing systems — hiragana, katakana, and introductory kanji. She approaches Japanese as someone who learned it systematically in an academic setting, which means she can explain the "why" behind structures that often confuse English speakers.

I am also fluent (reading/listening/writing) in Cantonese and mandarin Chinese because of my upbringing. Half of my childhood education was received in Hong Kong and the other half was in Australia.

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.

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.

I'm currently a freshman at Brown University. I will most likely triple major in Ancient Greek & Sanskrit, Latin, and Japanese. I have had lots of experience tutoring those around me, such as friends, peers, and class mates, and I have always enjoyed seeing their progress as students. My tutoring experiences include after-school assistance to those struggling in Ancient Greek at my former high school, to helping Juniors and Sophomores help ace the SAT. My specialty is language and history, with an emphasis on Japanese, English, Latin, US history and World History, but I am also more than happy to help out those struggling with Algebra and Geometry. As someone who was once an ESL student himself, I believe that a good education rests upon the ability to comprehend, interact, and apply ideas. Besides academic matters, I am also fond of running, calisthenics, and Enka music.

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

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!

Growing up attending the Japanese Weekend School of New Jersey while enrolled in American public schools, Hidefusa developed native-level fluency in both languages and a deep understanding of where English speakers stumble with Japanese. He teaches everything from hiragana and katakana basics to kanji recognition, particle usage, and keigo (formal speech) — drawing on the bilingual instincts of someone who has lived in both linguistic worlds.

I am open to tutoring in a broad range of subjects, including Algebra, Spanish I/II, ESL and Biology (SAT II, AP, and MCAT).

Learning Japanese means juggling three writing systems, unfamiliar grammar structures, and a set of politeness registers that don't exist in English. Katharine brings a methodical, pattern-oriented mindset to breaking down concepts like particle usage, verb conjugation groups, and kanji radicals so that each lesson builds logically on the last.

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.
