“Build confidence in Business Japanese with

1-on-1 Program.”

Career-Long Confidence in Business Japanese in 3 months.

Japanese Skills Holding You Back?

You hesitate before speaking—“Is this too casual?”
You rewrite emails again and again—“Does this sound polite enough?”
You avoid meetings or phone calls—“What if I mess up the keigo?”

What professionals are saying

Saski Rock

Japan-focused HR Consultant & CTI-Trained Coach at Saskia Rock Consulting LLC

"After more than 30 years of living and working with Japan, I could function just fine. I could participate in meetings, manage relationships, and get my point across. And yet, business Japanese always felt like a trap.

That is why working with Shohei Yoshida was such a turning point for me. Thanks to Shohei, I finally made real progress with polite and business Japanese instead of just circling around the same issues."

Kiki Shen

Director, JD Admissions at Stanford Law School

"There was confusion around the different levels of formality and the special vocabulary and grammatical patterns used in business settings. I'm now able to clearly recognize the various patterns of Keigo when they're being used. I also feel more confident in being able to control the level of formality that I want to demonstrate in conversation and by email.

I also really liked the tailoring of the conversation practice to address different parts of my job to learn vocabulary specific to my work. I now know how to more effectively describe my work in Japanese.

Career Growth Through Japanese Coaching

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, 1:1 Japanese sessions that are unmatched by any other sessions I've had.

After 1-on-1 coaching, I feel much more confident speaking in business settings. ”

Afifa Ayu

Biochemist and Biological Orchestrator at Honda Research Institute Japan

“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.

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. "

Laura Soriano

Country Manager - France

“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."
