About Sakurako

・Do you want to laugh and talk with Japanese people during your trip to Japan?
・Wouldn’t it be fun if you could order naturally at restaurants and cafés?

→I will support that goal using the fastest route.

A learning method created from 2,500 lessons
 Many people study only grammar.
 But that alone doesn’t help you speak.

 Understand → Use it immediately → Naturally acquire it

 By learning in this flow, your conversation skills grow much faster.

What you can expect from the lessons

  1 month: Learn hiragana + introduce yourself
  3 months: Understand simple Japanese and have short conversations
 (What are you going to do today? / How was the movie?)
  Around 6 months: Comfortable daily conversations (shopping, plans, impressions, etc.)
  8 months – 1 year: 80–100% of the lesson can be conducted in Japanese
  Most students who continue lessons progress at this pace.

 Many students say, “I could speak sooner than I expected.”

Real student progress
 ・Complete beginner | Student A (twice a week, 3–6 months)
  Zero Japanese → able to speak basic conversations naturally
  Can shop and order in Japanese.
   A was nervous at first but began speaking on their own.

・Beginner (can read hiragana & katakana) | Student B (6–8 months)
 ・80% English → over 90% of the lesson in Japanese
 ・Able to talk for almost the entire 50 minutes in Japanese.
  Clear progress: thinking and speaking in Japanese.

Student Reviews

Hello, I’m Sakurako.

 My journey started with studying abroad in Brisbane in high school—
 from seeing the Sydney Opera House from the ferry in Sydney, to walking around Melbourne,
 and even watching rugby in Brisbane.

 Australia feels like a second home to me.

 I love chicken parmigiana and Yo-chi.

We focus not only on grammar but also on real conversations used in daily life.

I design the lessons based on your goals and level.

After each lesson, you will receive:
・ New vocabulary
・ Useful phrases
・ Key points

They are easy to review on your own, which helps you improve faster.

I’m looking forward to meeting you in a lesson.
