Hi there! I'm SoSo, 36 years old, a native Japanese. I was so obsessed to teach Japanese that I decided to do it as a professional. I also enjoy being a "furry", which is an otaku for animal characters. I travel around for furry events.
Beside of that geeky activity, I had worked in an animal hospital and an animal shelter before. So I'm familiar with animals and animal issues in Japan.
Profession/Interest:
Veterinary medicine, Animal welfare, Furry, Fursuit, Drawing, Street dance, Juggling,

I'm really enjoying my lessons with SoSo. He's really making sure that I'm getting the most out of every lesson. When I get distracted he gently gets me back on topic. He remembers things that are relevant to my life, and is patient when I fight my way through Japanese grammar. I'm looking forward to every lesson. I can recommend SoSo as a teacher to anyone that might be a bit nervous about starting to speak, or that is looking for a friendly conversation partner with fun interests.

SoSo was a great teacher, easy to understand, and helpfully providing natural vocab and grammar for my broken sentences. Looking forward to more lessons!

I've been taking lessons with SoSo for a little over a year now and he has been instrumental in the success of my Japanese learning journey. I can always count on SoSo to investigate my questions if he doesn't know the immediate answer and put deep thought into his responses. I feel comfortable that I can bring any subject or question to SoSo and get the informative and useful answer I am seeking.
