I have unofficially taught Japanese for two years, and self-taught English for four years so I know that it's difficult to make progress in a language without some outside help and so I'm here to be your support. By talking to a native speaker, you will be able to improve your Japanese. Many people have told me that I am quite easy to talk to, so I'm also hoping that we can be friends.

Through daily conversation practice, as well as discussions on current topics and familiar themes, you will develop practical communication skills you can truly use.

Lessons focus on daily conversation, travel Japanese, and business communication, and can be flexibly adapted to your goals and level.
