Hello! I’m Rin. As a beginner-friendly Japanese teacher, I create a relaxed and supportive space where students can feel confident speaking Japanese. When I’m not working, I’m usually doing the following: 🎵 Music — playing the Tsugaru shamisen and listening to music from different countries ✈️ Traveling — exploring new places and meeting new people 📚 Reading — gaining knowledge through great books 🎬 Watching anime and movies — relaxing and finding inspiration 🌱 Learning new things — expanding my potential

Me as a Teacher

• Academic Background: Studied language education, language acquisition, and phonetics at university • Lesson Style: Creates structured and personalized lessons, especially for pronunciation and practical communication • International Experience: Lived in the United States for six years (until age eight) • Work Experience: Worked as a systems engineer with international clients • Cultural Understanding: Communicated daily with people from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds • Teaching Approach: Open-minded, patient, and supportive • Student-Centered: Adjusts lessons based on each student’s goals and learning pace

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons are: • Personalized — based on your goals, level, and learning style • Pronunciation-focused — helping you feel comfortable with Japanese sounds and intonation • Confidence-building — supporting you so you can speak without fear • Practical — focusing on real-life conversation rather than memorization This class is ideal for you if you are: • a beginner who wants a strong foundation in pronunciation • an intermediate learner who wants to speak more fluently • an advanced learner looking for natural expressions and discussion practice • someone interested in Japanese and Asian culture, or planning to travel to Japan I would love to listen carefully to your goals
