Hello, everyone! I like teaching, talking, and making friends. My hobbies are cooking, sewing, reading books, gardening, traveling, and so on. My hobbies are varied! Because I'm brimming with curiosity. I like to challenge myself to new things. I was born in Fukuoka and now live in Oita. I love animals, especially cats! I have been teaching Japanese for 15years since 2009 and have been teaching English as well. Before becoming a Japanese language teacher, I taught mathematics too. Basically using textbooks (Minna no Nihongo / Genki/ Japanese for busy people and so on ). And I give homework. Depends on the person, I can help you read books together in order to understand the meaning, or support to taking the exam such as JLPT. If there is your demand for translation, a movie or talk, etc, I would like to meet that demand as much as possible.

I have only had 13 lessons with Annie先生, but I can say that she is by far one of the best teachers I've had for anything I've ever been taught. She does more than enough to challenge my understanding of the content studied during in and out of lessons and has always managed to make them very entertaining. I am more than happy to recommend her to anyone studying Japanese. I am delighted with the quality of her teaching and hope that she continues to tutor me as I continue to advance my Japanese studies.

Thank you for being so flexible with us this week! Even though it was Golden Week, you kept working with us and were able to help us with material outside of the textbooks lesson plan! You're very kind, 先生, and we really appreciate all your hard work. Thank you so very much! \(^▽^)/

Annie is considerate, kind, patient, and a great teacher and conversation partner who explains grammar well and demystifies it. I highly recommend her as a tutor!

The lesson with Annie today was great, it's always enjoyable for our son! He really enjoyed grammar with her and says he wants to keep focusing on it. :-) This is the 3rd lesson, so far we've been able to cover conversational Japanese, Math, Kanji, typing in Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji, grammar, etc. It's a lot for a kid his age, but he's trying very hard while balancing homework too. His end goal is to be able to understand and speak Japanese!

I loved getting to chat with Annie in Japanese! I've been taking a Japanese class, but in the class we don't get much time to practice talking. The time with Annie went by so quickly, she was fun to talk to. She was encouraging and helped me when I would get stuck on words or putting sentences together.

Great lesson. We had a wonderful conversation practice, and then studied grammar and vocabulary. It was a really fun lesson. Thank you very much!
