What is Tobira

Tobira is the online language-learning project run by Chuseiwa, Inc.

Chuseiwa is a cross-border education & culture company with bases in Fukuoka (Japan), Qingdao (China), and Vancouver (Canada).

Our philosophy: “Start from the task at hand.”

We co-create scripts with learners for the scenes you’ll use tomorrow—focusing on the exact words and steps that get things done. We prioritize clarity, communication ability, and nuance (politeness, phone etiquette, tone) over vocabulary size, reducing misunderstandings. We specialize in pronunciation of non-native sounds to maximize understandability.
