やっほ～🤗Friendly & Certified teacher with over 8 years experience. Let’s have fun practicing Japanese! During my fourth year of college I obtained a certification to teach Japanese professionally and after graduating, I started working in a Japanese language school in Tokyo, where I taught classes of foreign students and did private lessons for about five years. One of the reasons why I love teaching Japanese is that I can discover the intriguing and fascinating particularities of Japanese words and expressions together with interesting people from all over the world, while learning about their cultures and ways of thinking. I want to continue teaching in the future because I love how I and my students can motivate and encourage each other to keep learning and be curious while having fun.
