About Me

こんにちは。🌸 Konnichiwa! 🌸
Are you interested in the Japanese language/culture or planning to go to Japan? I am an experienced and qualified Japanese language teacher. I've been teaching the Japanese language as a second language since 2008. I studied English and am currently learning Italian, so I know exactly what the challenges (and rewards!) of learning languages are like. 👩‍🎓📕✏️

I love teaching as it is great to meet people, get to know different cultures, and it's amazing to see the students improve their Japanese language abilities and be able to communicate in Japanese.
A little bit about myself: I like playing video games & board games & card games, watching movies & anime, eating, and traveling. Also, I love my two Japanese Spitz. 🐶💖🐶

NOTE:
If you're interested in working with me, please book a 30-minute trial lesson first. Also, I would love to hear about your language goals (or anything else you think I should know), so feel free to send me a message when you book.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any queries or want to discuss anything further.

Goals + Commitment = Dreams Come True

Let’s start speaking in Japanese :D

****************************************

To be fair to everyone, please be mindful of my 24-hour cancellation policy below.

Cancellation: Lesson reservations can be cancelled more than 24 hours before the lesson start time with no charge.

Late Cancellation: If you need to cancel a reserved lesson less than 24 hours before the lesson start time, please send me a message, but please do NOT click cancel/reschedule button. I need 24 hours notice to accept cancellation. Therefore, the credit used for that reservation will be forfeited.

Late for the lesson: If you are more than 15 minutes late without notifying me, you are considered absent, and the full lesson fee will be charged. If you know that you are going to be late, please send me a message as soon as possible, then I am happy to wait for you longer :)

Missed lesson: If you miss a lesson that you have booked, the credit used for that reservation will be forfeited.

I appreciate your understanding.

My trial lessons

The trial lesson is a relaxed way to meet each other and to see if you want to take lessons.
I can not help with translation, exam or interview practice in a trial lesson. Please book a full lesson for these.
