InterestsReadingTravelFilms & TV Series
I am a Japanese who grew up in Japan. I love reading. I know a lot of beautiful Japanese words. I'd like to teach them to foreigners. I also like traveling abroad. It's a great pleasure for me to learn about foreign countries.
Studying foreign languages is fun. Now I'm studying Vietnamese.
I go to movies at least once a month. I like flowers and taking photos of them. I sometimes post pictures of flowers on SNS. I like sports too. I play table tennis once or twice a week.

Me as a Teacher
Before I became a Japanese teacher, I was an English teacher at Junior High School in Japan for 15 years.
I became interested in teaching Japanese after experiencing volunteer work. I like teaching and studying foreign languages.
Last year I taught Japanese in Vietnam. I really enjoyed teaching there.
日本語の教師になる前は、日本の中学校で英語を15年間教えていました。
ボランティアを経験して、日本語を教えることに興味を持ちました。外国語を教えたり学んだりすることは面白いです。
昨年はベトナムで日本語を教えました。とても楽しい経験でした。
My lessons & teaching style
I will listen carefully to student's request and decide on a curriculum. I would like to make a student speak and write as much as possible. To motivate a student, I would like to praise him/her as soon as I find his/her good point.
生徒の話をよく聞いて、授業の内容を決めたいと思います。なるべく多く、生徒に話したり書いたりさせたいと思います。やる気を出させるため、いいところを見つけたらすぐにほめます。

Teacher’s pick
I highly recommend Koizumi-sensei for learning Japanese. I have taken lessons to prepare for JLPT N1 less than 2 months before the exam, but despite this short time, Koizumi-sensei helped me to improve my knowledge of N1 vocabulary and reading text. She always has a lot of materials for JLPT tests and she does a review of the previous lesson so you can repeat and remember well all new words. Lessons with Koizumi-sensei helped me so much that I could successfully pass JLPT N1!
Sensei is always encouraging and patient, positive and enthusiastic. Her lessons are always well-organized, engaging, and tailored to my learning needs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Japanese in effective and positive way.
先生、とてもお世話になりました。先生のおかげで日本語能力試験のN1レベルに合格しました。どうもありがとうございました!今は就職面接の準備が必要なので、レッスンを続けています。会話の練習がとても役に立っています。皆さん、どうぞ小泉先生の授業を疑いなく取ってください!

Koizumi sensei is truly a exceptional japanese teacher. I have been working with her for about two years and I just successfully passed the JLPT N2 exam (I passed the N3 exam with her help prior to that) in December. I passed both exams on my first try. If you are looking for a tutor to help pass the JLPT exams I would wholeheartedly recommend Koizumi sensei. I am glad that I did.

After a year of working with Mrs. Koizumi, I went from below N5 to successfully passing the N3 test level. She is a kind and understanding teacher, and she is always on time. Her corrections help you understand how to sound more natural, and she will answer any questions you have to help you understand. I cannot recommend her enough and greatly appreciate her help in getting me to this level. I am sure you will be pleased if you work with her or continue to work with her.
