I also taught at a language school in Australia for 13 years. Many of my students have taken over 100 lessons with me and made great progress. I’ve had students who started with N5 or N4 and eventually passed N1. I grew up surrounded by nature in Shizuoka and later worked as a graphic designer at an advertising agency in Tokyo, which helped me develop creative and enjoyable ways to make learning fun and effective. I currently live in Melbourne, Australia, with my family and our dog. I've traveled to many places, including the USA, the UK, France, Turkey, and Hong Kong, which has given me a deeper understanding of different cultures.

Customized lesson for your ideal goal(16+ years experience for teaching Japanese) Failure is the mother of success.失敗こそ成功の母 Shippai koso Seikou no Haha This philosophy has guided my 16+ years of teaching Japanese. I help learners overcome the fear of mistakes through supportive, confidence‑building instruction. I learned English entirely in Japan (my only overseas trip was three days in Hawaii!). This experience helps me explain Japanese concepts clearly using English scaffolding. As I could learn English in Japan, you can learn Japanese wherever you are—once you’re ready to embrace mistakes and grow from them. As a Harry Potter generation teacher, I make lessons engaging with pop culture such as music, anime, and manga. At the same time, JLPT preparation and business Japanese are part of my expertise, so lessons can be customized to your goals. My teaching journey began in high school, volunteering in a language center’s newcomer class. In university, I worked at an international school, teaching pronunciation. The letters written in Japanese that I received from students are still precious to me. Customized Japanese Lessons Tailored to Your Interests In our trial lesson, we’ll assess your level and set clear goals. We’ll create a personalized plan to reach your ideal proficiency. Learning Materials (interest‑based and practical): ✨Travel Prep ✨J‑POP lyric analysis ✨Movie & anime openings/endings ✨Daily conversation practice ✨JLPT materials (if needed) ✨Business situation Training Let’s work together to speak sophisticated, natural Japanese😊
