Student Testimonials – See What Our Students Say!

Nicole Dryden student voice
Passing the JLPT N2 felt like an impossible task at first, but thanks to my dedicated tutor in Nagoya, I was able to systematically improve my grammar and reading skills. The structured lessons and mock tests were incredibly helpful. I’m now confidently preparing for N1!
Nicole Dryden
Emma Jordan student voice
We had just moved to Nagoya, and I was worried about my child's ability to learn Japanese. Thanks to these private lessons, my child quickly gained confidence in speaking Japanese. The tutor is very kind and makes the lessons fun and engaging, so my child always looks forward to them. Now, they actively talk with friends at school and feel more comfortable in daily life. This experience has made our transition to Japan much smoother. We are truly grateful!
Emma Jordan
Living in Nagoya, I wanted to improve my conversational skills to feel more comfortable in daily life. My tutor customized lessons based on real-life situations, and now I can confidently shop, ask for directions, and chat with locals!

I work for a company in Nagoya, and I struggled to communicate in professional settings. My tutor helped me understand keigo, business etiquette, and workplace culture. Now, I can confidently participate in meetings and communicate effectively with my Japanese colleagues!

I don’t speak any Japanese. Can I still take lessons?

Yes. Beginners are welcome. Many students start from zero. You can request a tutor who can support you in English, and the lessons can begin with basic conversation, survival Japanese, hiragana, grammar, and useful expressions for daily life.

Where can I take face-to-face Japanese lessons in Nagoya?

Face-to-face lessons can be arranged at cafés, community centers, your home, office, or another suitable location in Nagoya, depending on tutor availability and lesson conditions.

Can I take online Japanese lessons if I live outside Nagoya?

Can I choose my Japanese tutor?

You can tell us your preferences, such as lesson goals, tutor gender, age, teaching experience, English support, schedule, and location. Our coordinator will use this information to introduce a suitable Japanese tutor.

Will I study with the same tutor every lesson?

In most cases, yes. HH JapaNeeds arranges a dedicated Japanese tutor for each student. Studying with the same tutor helps the tutor understand your weak points, learning style, interests, goals, and progress over time.

Many students take lessons once a week for 60 minutes or 75 minutes. You can plan your monthly lesson schedule with your tutor based on your goals, availability, and learning pace.

Are Japanese lessons available for children and families?

Yes. We can arrange Japanese lessons for children, families, and students who need support for school life in Japan. Lesson content can be adjusted based on age, Japanese level, and learning purpose.

About us

HH JapaNeeds is a Japanese-operated language school based in Nagoya, offering one-on-one private Japanese lessons for learners in Nagoya, across Japan, and online worldwide.

The name “HH” comes from “Helping Hands.” It reflects our wish to support Japanese learners personally and help each student find a learning style that fits their goals, schedule, location, and daily life.

Our mission is to arrange suitable Japanese tutors for learners who want to improve daily conversation, prepare for the JLPT, study business Japanese, or feel more confident living, working, or studying in Nagoya. Instead of asking students to search for tutors alone, we listen to their needs and match them with a dedicated Japanese tutor.

Through regular one-on-one lessons, students can learn not only Japanese language skills, but also Japanese culture, manners, communication styles, and practical knowledge for life in Japan.

Naoteru Honda, founder of HH JapaNeeds Japanese language school in Nagoya

Naoteru Honda founded HH JapaNeeds as a Japanese language training school in Nagoya. Before starting the school, he experienced the difficulty of building a business and continuing it through uncertain times. During that period, learning English at a language school helped him regain confidence and showed him how powerful language learning can be.

Through his own experience, he came to believe that learning a language is more than simply studying words and grammar. It can help people express themselves, meet others, understand different cultures, and discover new possibilities in their own lives.

HH JapaNeeds was created to offer that kind of support to people learning Japanese. Whether students are learning Japanese for daily life, work, school, JLPT, family, or personal interest, our goal is to help them find the right tutor and continue their learning journey step by step.
