About Meg

Hi, I’m Meg.

I’m an online Japanese teacher and a storytelling content creator based in Japan.
My goal is simple: to help you enjoy Japanese naturally through clear stories, gentle repetition, and a pace that feels safe and doable.

Warm, calm, and structured learning — so you can keep going.

Japanese Teacher

As a Japanese teacher

I do not believe language learning should feel heavy.
I focus on comprehension first, so speaking becomes easier and more natural.

📖

Learn through stories

Stories make meaning clear. Instead of only memorizing, you understand Japanese in context.

☁️

Comfortable and clear

I use simple Japanese, gentle pacing, and repetition so you can relax and still make real progress.

🌱

Consistency matters

Progress comes from small steps you can keep. I help you build a sustainable learning habit.

Background

Background and experience

Here are a few simple facts about my teaching background and lesson style.

🎓

Teaching experience

  • 12+ years teaching Japanese
  • 7 years at a Japanese language school
  • Many online lessons with adult learners
🧩

What I teach

  • Storytelling, reading, and conversation
  • Grammar support from beginner to intermediate
  • JLPT guidance depending on your needs

My teaching approach

I try to make Japanese feel understandable before asking you to speak perfectly.
When you understand more, speaking becomes less scary.

YouTube and Materials

Start with a story.

Many learners start with my videos first. If you want structured review, you can also use scripts and study PDFs.

How to use my story videos

Watch one episode, listen first for the meaning, and then listen again for words and expressions you recognize.

This is a simple way to improve listening, vocabulary, and confidence without pressure.
