Hello, I'm Wakako. I'm a professional translator of Japanese and English and also teaching Japanese to foreign people as a part-time online teacher here on iTalki. I'm enjoying talking with people around the world.
I love dogs, animals, music, food (I’m vegan <3), travel, football (I'm a fan of Liverpool FC) etc. I especially like the UK and lived in London last year, so I would be very glad if I can make friends from the UK.Ik als leerkracht
【New Lesson! Play online games and speak Japanese!】
Speak Japanese over voice chat while playing Nintendo Switch games! Study useful Japanese words and phrases while having fun!
While my main occupation is as a professional translator with almost 26 years of career, I'm also teaching Japanese to foreign people as an online teacher here on iTalki.
I have a postgraduate certificate in teaching Japanese as a foreign language and had six-month training to teach the Japanese language by using English at the Institute of International Education in London.

Playing Splatoon 3 as part of a Japanese lesson is a crazy good idea. It's definitely not easy, and that's the best part that I'm challenged in real time to listen deeply and speak clearly in a time frame that is useful to the situation. And om top of that, it is a whole lot of fun.
