Over 6 years of teaching in language school experience 【When I was a university student】 I helped Japanese children and exchange students to learn Japanese as a tutor. I also had experienced Japanese tutoring for American students in Arizona State University. 【Now】 I'm working as a Japanese language teacher for foreigners. By working as a teacher, I realized that age doesn't matter!! There is no late to start learning! Basically, when I teach, I will use Japanese all the way to improve your Japanese skill. But, you can also ask questions in English or Portuguese if it's hard. I understand how difficult to learn foreign languages by my experience. But I'll try my best to help you! Don't worry.

JLPT N1/N2 Reading Strategy|Structured Exam Preparation My teaching style is analytical, structured, and goal-oriented. Students say I explain grammar clearly, but what makes my lessons different is the strategy training for JLPT reading. We don’t just read. We break down the structure of the text. We learn how exam questions are created. We practice solving efficiently. Advanced Japanese is abstract and layered. I teach you how to navigate that complexity. Mistakes are welcome — they are clues to improve your score.
