If we haven’t met before – hi, my name’s Shohei 👋
I was born and raised in Kumamoto, Japan and have worked for both Japanese and British companies.

That's why I started BizNihongo—to offer clear, practical support for building confidence in Japanese business settings.

What professionals are saying
Kristy Ishii
Digital Events Marketing & Personal Branding Specialist at Pasona N A, Inc.
“I find that there are certain plateaus that come after N2, and I was really unsure if I could truly level up in a way that would impact my day-to-day at work.
Shohei offers practical, customized Japanese sessions that are unmatched by any other sessions I've had.
After taking the program, I feel much more confident speaking in business settings. ”

“Before this course, I learned keigo by mimicking others, so I didn’t have a strong foundation.
This program helped me understand it step by step from the basics.
Now I can clearly check and correct my keigo with confidence.Â
The workbook and lessons helped me review my understanding and think more deeply about how I use Japanese in daily work. I finally understand patterns I used before without knowing why. "

“After 1-on-1 sessions, I started feeling more confident in Keigo speech. I'm delighted to find myself using Keigo naturally during work calls and client meetings. My supervisor has praised my Japanese improvement, and I believe this program provides valuable practice opportunities for those who have limited chances for output."
