🍣Beginner & Polite Japanese 🏝️Okinawan language 🍙Master Japanese in English 🍜University Professor 1) I've been a Japanese teacher at a college school in the US Air Force base in Japan. 2) My primary focus is to build vocabulary so students can boldly lead discussions, and speak fluently. 3) I've trained exchange students, engineers, college students, children, and so on. 4) I've also worked as a guesthouse staff and office worker in Japan, so I'm used to explaining Japanese culture and manners to tourists and expatriates :) 5) I was ever praised by my friends and students for my teaching methods. As a result, most of my friends were able to pass the JLPT-N1 and N2 test with my support and some of them are working as skilled workers in Japan.
