Hello! I'm Kana. こんにちは☺️ I'm from Nagano, Japan.
I am a reliable and comforting teacher who is deeply committed to supporting every step of your language-learning journey. As someone who loves studying languages myself, I understand both the challenges and the joys of learning. I use my experience and knowledge to help you feel confident and well-supported.
I like:
・ Traveling (I've been to the USA🇺🇸, Canada🇨🇦, Mexico🇲🇽, South Korea🇰🇷, Taiwan🇹🇼, and Thailand🇹🇭)
・ Listening to music (I enjoy a wide range, from J-POP to Western music)
・ Eating 😋(I especially love spicy food)
・Learning languages!!
Me as a Teacher
・I majored in English literature and linguistics at university, so I know what methods are effective for learning. I can share tips that helped me in my studies.
・I'm familiar with 4 languages (English, French, Spanish, Korean)
・ I spent a year in Montreal, Canada on a working holiday, attending a language school. Having experienced the struggle of not being able to communicate in English, I understand the challenges of learning a language. Let's go at your own pace.
・ I taught English, Japanese, and math one-on-one to students from kindergarten to high school.
・I understand the difficulty of learning a language because I've actively learned languages from zero. I will throughly support you!
