Hello! My name is Kana.
I was born and raised in Japan but I studied English in college.
I also went to Canada for six months to further my English skills.
I work as a bilingual kindergarten teacher in Japan.
I have friends who are interested in learning Japanese and Japanese culture so I decided to be a teacher here to support you learning Japanese in a fun way :) I'd like to be not only your teacher but your friend as well!
Let's have fun learning Japanese together!

Ich als Lehrkraft
I teach my friends Japanese for two years and I am a teacher at kindergarten in Japan!
I love to communicate with people from different countries and learn their experiences. My friends say I am friendly, honest, responsible, and cheerful. I teach using the Genki book for beginners and have lessons I can show on screen. I also love to sing and was a singer in Japan so if you want to learn a song we can learn together!

After a few sessions with Kana and a trip to Japan, I can say confidently that Kana is an awesome tutor. She is easy to work with, patient and, most importantly, she makes learning fun. I was very nervous to take that first step to try and start learning Japanese, but I'm glad I did, and I believe my trip was much more memorable thanks to that. I look forward to continuing to learn with Kana and trying to reach my goal of having full conversations for future trips and/or work.
Kana is very kind and patient. Even though I know nothing about Japanese, she can share with me lots of Japanese cultural issues in English. Her English is great so we do not have any language barrier.
I highly recommend anyone who know nothing about Japanese but still interest in this country to learn from Kana. You will learn a lot and enjoy much of fun in her lesson.
Kana-san is an amazing tutor! Not only is she able to explain concepts in a concise and effective manner (in fluent English), but she's also very patient. Lessons with her have always been a lot of fun and I look forward to the next one. またね!
