"Looking to learn Japanese through fun materials like manga and anime? Needing useful phrases for an upcoming trip to Japan? Have children who need help with homework or preparing for schools in the US or Japan? I’m here to help! Let’s embark on a language and academic journey together!

I’ve taught Japanese language and school subjects (math, English, essay writing, reading comprehension, etc.) in both English and Japanese, as well as test prep for exams such as Eiken, TOEIC/TOEFL, SSAT/PSAT, and Japanese junior high, high school, and college entrance exams—including interview prep.

I hold a BA in English Communications from a Japanese university, completed a 420-hour Japanese language teaching certificate course in Japan, and have taught for over 20 years in private academies, classroom settings, and as a private tutor.

I’ve worked with a wide range of students from the US, Japan, and Korea, including expat children and professionals working for Japanese companies.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson :) Thank you!" less...
