**KONNICHIWA! I’m Misa—your Japanese coach with a traveler’s heart!** ✈️
As a former international tour leader (5+ years!), I *live* for bridging cultures through language. Whether you’re prepping for a trip to Japan, craving travel-themed convos, or tackling JLPT kanji, I’ll make learning feel like an adventure—with practical tips, cultural nuggets, and *lots* of encouragement!
**一緒に楽しく学びましょう！** *(Let’s learn joyfully together!)*Me as a Teacher
I obtained my Japanese teaching qualification in April 2022.
Since then, I've been working as an online Japanese teacher, offering lessons not only on italki but also classes for technical intern trainees and Kanji preparation for JLPT.
As an English learner myself, I deeply understand the challenges of learning languages.
I always try to tailor my lessons to suit each student's goals, whether they are beginners, planning to visit Japan as a tourist, or simply looking to have conversations like friends.
2022年4月に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。
それからはオンライン日本語教師として、italkiの他に技能実習生への授業やJLPTの漢字対策の授業もしています。

Misa is the friendliest, most patient teacher here on iTalki. I can't stress enough how easy it is to forget your nervousness and doubts and just get swept up in the flow of conversation. I get the feeling that it is Mia's wonderful personality and positive, radiant energy that makes it possible. She is extremely helpful when answering questions, clarifying grammar and teaching new words or expressions - and her solid grasp of English is a nice safety line! Highly recommend.

Misa always prepares fun and useful lessons tailored to my needs. Each lesson builds upon previously learned topics in a logical way.
Misa uses real-world materials (such as bus schedules, travel calendars, ferry price charts) which gives her lessons authenticity while motivating me to study vocabulary for numbers, months, days, and prices. I highly recommend, Misa as a teacher.

I usually feel so shy when I have to speak Japanese but Misa-san made me feel so comfortable and at ease. It was an incredibly enjoyable lesson. She provided me with useful guidance on how to have successful job interviews in Japanese, and she did all this always with a smile on her face. 100% recommend her 💓
