Deep Thinker 😌 Yoga Practitioner 🧘♀️ Japan Enthusiast 🇯🇵 Coffee Aficionado ☕️ Amateur Chef 🍲 Nature Lover 🌳 Lifelong Learner 📖 Occasional Traveler ✈️ Casual Gamer 🎮 I've spent most of my life in the US, but I did live in Sapporo, Japan for 3 years and taught English at some English conversation schools there. I returned to the US in 2017 and have continued English tutoring online. I also continue studying Japanese as much as I can. I played the flute for many years during my student days, so I'm familiar with music theory terminology 🪈🎹🎶
Ik als leerkracht
The goal is for you to speak as much as possible. Unless you start speaking first, I will start speaking to you to get the conversation going. This isn't an interview (unless you want to practice for that), so I do my best to emulate natural conversation. I think I would be a suitable tutor for intermediate and advanced learners. While we're chatting, I can type corrections and suggestions in the chat box for how to speak better. If you need me to speak slower or repeat myself, please don't hesitate to ask. Don't worry if you make a mistake or don't know how to properly express yourself. I want students to feel comfortable and enjoy themselves while practicing! 😊
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
*Please read the class descriptions for more details about my lessons* I prefer to gradually update my schedule to avoid lesson cancellations on my end as much as possible. I do my best to have my availability posted up to 2 weeks in advance.
I conduct primarily conversation-based tutoring sessions. I can correct your pronunciation and explain unclear words and phrases. We can practice reading, and I can check short documents such as e-mails and speeches for errors and clarity. Maybe you would like to practice for an upcoming oral presentation. Please let me know what you would like to do.

Aura is a fantastic person with great energy. It was a lot of fun to talk to Aura and we didn't even notice how the hour has passed. Looking forward to more sessions :)
