Hello everyone, I am from Hokkaido in Japan.
I have lived in the UK for more than two decades, with experience teaching Japanese in local secondary schools for 5 years, where I introduced Japanese culture and traditions along with the Japanese language.
I love animals, nature and yoga, all the simple things in life because less is more.
I would like to meet lots of people who are genuinely authentic and honest.

Ik als leerkracht
I am reliable, conscientious and determined to assist you to learn to your fullest potential.
When learners need help, I am someone who is patient and caring to support my students every step of the way, no matter how difficult it is.
My goal as a teacher is to help my student improve to the best of my ability, however large or small the progression. Persistence is key.
Hopefully my friendly manner and positivity, with the knowledge and experience of teaching, will help guide you to becoming more fluent in Japanese. Feel free to ask me anything if you have any questions.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I would like learners to focus less on textbooks, but instead, colloquial every day language which are more commonly used in conversations. I am flexible with the student's goals and preferred method of learning, so textbooks, whiteboards and other resources are available also.
It makes me happy to know my learners are relaxed in my lesson.
I teach in both English and Japanese.

Great teacher, so fun and engaging. She was also very patient and caring toward me. As a beginner, I definitely learned a lot on my first lesson since she would write everything down in the messages.
Overall, great experience and will be back. Try her out!
Thank you,
Miya
Just finished a wonderful lesson with Rie, she made me feel comfortable whilst also encouraging me to push myself. Her English fluency helped with our communication, and the understanding of her lesson. Big thumbs up!
