Native Japanese, fluent in English. Great communication skills and international cultural knowledge. I first got involved in teaching Japanese as a conversation tutor when I was at the university in San Francisco, USA. Since then, I love working with people from different cultural backgrounds. This is also one of the reasons why I became a documentary photographer. I have visited over 90 countries to document different cultures and people. For the joy of teaching, I have also taught photography at workshops. Teaching requires a great deal of patience and communication artistry which also apply to become a good photographer as well. In general, it is truly rewarding to see my students succeed in learning skills.

I have never liked boring lessons and I like dynamism, so I would define myself a teacher who likes that students can learn having fun and with joy. At the same time, I adore grammar and I think it is very important to study and internalize it in order to speak well a foreign language. Finally, during my classes I like to speak a little bit about culture of the language we are studying and to do some language structure’s comparisons which are very interesting to understand how languages work (a little bit of linguistics help).

I've been teaching Japanese for 6 years. My first trip abroad changed how I see the world. Later, I studied in the UK for six months without much preparation and ran into walls of language and culture. It wasn't all fun, and that bitter experience is the foundation of my lessons. I have taught Japanese for six years and love supporting people who dream of traveling to or working in Japan. My lessons focus on real conversation: not just correct grammar, but choosing the right words with an understanding of Japanese culture, so you can build good relationships. I previously worked as an English and math tutor and a cram school teacher, and volunteered at an elementary school and an after-school program. My students are aged 9 to 70. Hearing "I passed the exam!" or seeing students keep going despite busy schedules makes me glad to be a teacher. I mainly use Minna no Nihongo, but I adapt to each student, including handmade materials. My motto: a fun, fulfilling place to learn, built on trust. I'd love to be part of your "story across Japan." Join a lesson anytime! それから・・・ I have one request for prospective students: please share as much as you can about the culture of your country. I firmly believe this is essential, both for building mutual trust and for delivering effective lessons.
