Video soonAbout Sakura
Born in Tokyo, teaching from London — which means European learners finally get native lessons without the 6 a.m. alarm. I trained as a speech therapist before moving into language teaching, so pronunciation and natural rhythm are my specialty. If you can already 'read' Japanese but freeze when speaking, my shadowing method will unlock you in weeks.

Jun 2026Native tutor at 7pm London time — finally. Her shadowing method fixed my flat intonation in about six weeks. Highly recommend the pronunciation package.
