Abe Sensei
Shinjuku Japanese Teacher
"I get very happy when my students can express what they want to say in their own words in Japanese."
Q: How are your lessons?
Learning a foreign language is sometimes difficult, but don't worry. In my lessons, we will get to know the Japanese language in a relaxed style by going through stories and experiences from your daily life. That way our lessons are set in a context that is familiar to you and will help you to learn the language. Please let me know why you want to learn Japanese. I look forward to helping you reach your language goal soon!

Q: What are your hobbies?
- Reading (including manga!)
- Traveling (both domestic and overseas)
- Sado (the Japanese tea ceremony)
I was in the tea ceremony club when I was a college student. Since then, it has become one of my hobbies.
Some of the things I enjoy doing in my free time are going to topical exhibitions, taking walks in and around the city, and speaking with extended family members.
