Hi my name is Kaori. I am from a city near Yokohama in Japan. I have been living in London for 25 years. I also lived in Edinburgh and Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, long time ago.
こんにちは! かおりといいます。出身は神奈川県で現在ロンドンに住んでいます。
I have been working as a professional tourist guide in England and Wales. So I have a good knowledge about these areas.
I am also a voice-over artist and occasional actress....or I should say an extra. I have been in a feature film (as a waitress)!
I love traveling, hill walking, cycling, British music (rock, indie and punk), pale ale, gin, yoga, baking, herbs, Celtic design, cats.

Mis clases y método de enseñanza
Conversation lessons would be in relaxed and friendly style. I won't use any text books or materials. Therefore the main focus is to brush up your speaking and listening skills. It would probably suit from intermediate level onwards. I will correct mistakes in grammar and vocabulary if requested.
General Japanese lessons will be, again in relaxed and friendly class! We use a text book called Genki 1 and you will learn grammars and vocabularies as well as Japanese writing!
I look forward to speaking with you!
* Please note lesson times are: 60mins -> 55mins
30mins -> 25mins

I always enjoy conversation practice with Kaori. For some reason I feel less nervous with her than with other teachers. Probably because of her very good english. I feel like I already learned a lot during her lessons. 5/5

Kaori-San is always so patient, explains things very clearly, and has a good sense of humour which makes lessons fun as well as informative.
