Learn Japanese in Auckland

New Foundation Classes starting the week of the 15th of October
Non beginner students can start any week

Learning Japanese will allow you to delve deep into the mindset of this fascinating country.
Japan has the world’s third largest economy, and as a neighbour of New Zealand is important for both business and tourism.
Learning Japanese is a great way to open doors and gain opportunities in business, and adds an edge to a CV for many careers. Manga and Japanese culture and history can be discovered and explored through the Japanese language, and conversing with the locals in Japanese while travelling in Japan is a very rewarding experience.

Meet your teachers

Mayu

She is from Nagoya City, Japan. She completed her teaching studies specialising in Japanese grammar, teaching techniques from a foreigner’s point of view, and Japanese culture. She believes language immersion is the fastest and most effective way to learn a language and learned English and German using this method. Ask her about Japanese language and culture.

Hiromi

I’m Hiromi. I’m from Saitama, Japan.
I have always been interested in foreign languages and cultures since my first trip to the US when I was in high school.

After finishing my English and linguistic studies, I went to Australia and completed TESOL and TEFL programmes. Upon returning to Japan from Australia, I worked for private Language schools and taught English to all age groups; from adults to primary school children.

In New Zealand, apart from teaching Japanese here at Language Hub, I work as a teacher trainer for Japanese-English trainee teachers and study part-time.
In my class, I try to incorporate a variety of games and activities to keep my students on their toes, and the most importantly, to make language learning fun!

I look forward to meeting you in class and helping you reach your Japanese learning goals.
