10 Years of International Experience Teaching and Communicating in English & Spanish I love traveling and am a former tour escort and backpacker. Through my journeys, I have explored many countries, including India, Myanmar, Nepal, Bhutan, Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia, Canada, Guatemala, Belize, Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Spain, France, Italy, and Turkey. I also love manga and anime, so I enjoy talking about Japanese culture as well! I am passionate about language learning and cultural exchange. I lived in Australia to study English, in Taiwan to learn Chinese, and spent three years in Mexico teaching Japanese while learning Spanish. These experiences helped me understand both the challenges and the joy of learning a new language. With my international background and love for communication, I enjoy helping students learn Japanese in a fun, relaxed, and practical way. I can teach students from absolute beginner level, so please feel free to join my classes. I explain grammar and other points in English or Spanish, so it is helpful if you understand these languages. I usually give homework, but if you are busy, it is completely okay not to do it. I believe learning hiragana and katakana is the most important first step. Without reading and writing skills, it is very difficult to improve your Japanese. Step by step, I will help you build a strong foundation and enjoy the learning process!

I completed all the requirements of Japanese Languages Teacher (420 hours). And I have Bachelor of Commerce and I’m qualified for a financial planner. And I passed the English proficiency test (Eiken) grade 2. I strongly believe that a good portion of any lesson should feature at least some speaking practice and so I aim to create a relaxed atmosphere where you feel you can make mistakes. I encourage you not to be afraid to make mistakes, because when you learn from your mistakes, that is how you progress. I will do corrections throughout the lesson or at the end of the lesson, depending on the pace. I'd love to help you fulfill your dreams and achieve your goals :)
