About Me

InterestsTravelFoodArtReading
I am a professional bilingual Japanese–English language teacher with an international background. Born and raised in Japan, I offer native fluency and deep cultural insight. My education in Australia(B.A. in Linguistics&B.Ed) provides me with a Western perspective on language acquisition. This unique combination allows me to bridge the gap for English speakers learning Japanese. I explain complex grammar points clearly in English while providing authentic, culturally relevant learning materials. “No shows” and rescheduled or cancelled less than 24 hours before the booking start time will be charged at the full price. Please remember every lesson requires a good amount of preparation.

Kara sensei is a great Japanese teacher! In classes, we talk in Japanese for a while before diving into the textbook, which gives a lot of practical practice. Kara is very positive and joyful and makes learning Japanese very fun and enjoyable! I'd definitely recommend taking classes with her.

This lesson we did a lot of talking and started reading a passage in Ch17. I got an A in GCSE Japanese!

What a wonderful class. We talked the entire time. Kara sensei constantly wrote notes on the chat for me. At the end she said that we had reviewed lessons 1-6 in the book. What a wonderful way to teach. Reviewing material without the student even knowing it. Her class is so much fun. Thank you, Kara sensei.

Had my first class today with Kara先生 as a beginner. To preface I self studied using resources like textbooks and other immersion materials, but have zero experiences in speaking or output as I have never taken classes. I started the class very nervous, but Kara先生 was very professional and friendly. I struggled quite a fair bit, and made a few mistakes now and then, but Kara先生 was able to correct me and explain vocab/grammar points that I didn't understand without making me feel bad. Overall, the class was very enjoyable and my nerves went away very quickly as it was like talking to a friend. To those who want to practice their speaking but are nervous to do so, I highly recommend Kara先生 to start your journey. :)
