Get StartedHi, I’m Noa and, hopefully I will also be your Japanese Sensei!
I learned English from scratch while living in Canada for a year, then studied in Europe, using English every day in an international environment.
Because I’ve experienced learning a language from zero, I teach Japanese in a clear, practical way, focusing on real phrases and natural conversation you can use from day one.
Let’s learn Japanese!
Here’s what my students say about learning Japanese with me.
“Noa sensei’s dedication to teaching the Japanese language is a must for anyone trying to learn. It has become one of my favorite ways to practice Japanese in the past 20 years. Her curriculum and ability to cater to your current level, and personalizes it to your particular reasons for learning. All of this while maintaining a wonderful attitude and fun learning environment.”
“Noa is a great teacher! I really enjoy learning from her as she is patient, supportive and provides clear explanations. I also like learning from a native Japanese speaker, as you get to know the subtle nuances that only a local would know. I started out learning from her to know some phrases before travelling to Japan, but I loved the lessons so much I decided to continue them, even after I had traveled to Japan. I am having so much fun learning from Noa! Highly recommend her classes!”
“Studying with Noa-sensei has helped me move beyond textbook Japanese. The live conversations are focused on real-world usage, and she’s always quick to follow up with clear explanations and great resources. She does a great job of explaining nuance and grammar in context, correcting me naturally during conversation, and adapting lessons to my level. It’s made speaking Japanese feel much more approachable.”
“If you're interested in growing your Japanese, I highly recommend Noa as a teacher. Not only Noa has an excellent grasp on the English language, but she really excels at setting our lessons to a pace that work best for me and are honestly really fun. I just recently moved to Japan, so I utilize a lot of Japanese resources, and she's easily one of the best ones at my disposal. So if you are looking to start learning Japanese, check out Noa!”
