About Wakana
Hello, I’m Wakana — a certified Japanese teacher based in Vienna, originally from Tokyo.
I specialize in helping complete beginners build a strong N5 foundation from zero.
Many learners feel excited at the beginning but quickly become confused by grammar, particles, and sentence structure. I focus on making Japanese clear and logical from day one, so you don’t feel lost later.
I believe the beginning stage is the most important. If your foundation is strong, everything becomes easier.
I have taught over 1,500 lessons and supported students from zero level to advanced learners.
Through my experience, I have seen that many students struggle not because Japanese is “too difficult,” but because they were not guided step by step in the right order.

In my lessons, I use structured materials based on Minna no Nihongo and GENKI, but I organize them in a way that makes grammar connect clearly.
We also use shared Google Docs, so you can review vocabulary, corrections, and notes anytime.
My goal is not just to finish a textbook
it’s to help you truly understand how Japanese works.
If you start Japanese the wrong way,
you will struggle later.
Many learners try to memorize N5 grammar without understanding how it connects.
That is why they feel stuck.
I prevent that from happening.
In your trial lesson, we will:
• Identify exactly where you are (even from zero)
・Japan trip
• Clarify how Japanese sentence structure really works
• Build your personal N5 foundation roadmap
• Create a clear 3-month action plan
You won’t leave with “motivation.”
You will leave with direction.
If you are serious about building Japanese the right way from the beginning,
book your trial session!
Let’s build your foundation correctly — from day one.
