About Me
Hi! I’m a certified Japanese language instructor from Japan and a native Japanese speaker with over 15 years of teaching experience. I work with students of all levels, from beginners to advanced learners, and tailor each lesson to your individual needs and goals.
My lessons include homework and personalized feedback to support your progress. If you need help with a larger project—such as translation or proofreading that requires more intensive review—please feel free to contact me in advance so we can discuss the details.
In addition to regular language lessons and exam preparation, I also offer support for job interviews, business presentations, and professional communication in Japanese.
For scheduling and inquiries, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to meeting you!
