Tokyo-born educator with a strong foundation in multicultural communication and language instruction. Holding teaching certifications for all academic levels in Japan, I further expanded my expertise through advanced studies at Waseda University's School of Political Science and Economics and Columbia University's School of the Arts, where I earned an MFA. My professional journey encompasses diverse sectors including education, film analysis (with experience evaluating 500+ films annually), and nonprofit leadership focused on child welfare.

ฉันในฐานะผู้สอน
I lived in New York for 8 years, so I’m comfortable speaking English.
I love movies, anime, and manga, and I can help you learn real Japanese through film— including slang and natural expressions.
We can also talk about directors, scenes, and storytelling while improving your Japanese.
Lessons are flexible and tailored to your goals.
บทเรียนและรูปแบบการสอนของฉัน
In my current online private lessons,
Beginner-level students: work on grammar using Genki and various learning apps, as well as simple kanji quizzes.
Intermediate-level students : follow lessons using their preferred textbooks or focus on preparation for the JLPT.
Advanced-level students : engage in free conversation practice, often using current news articles and online media.
For each lesson, I assign light homework.
Since I aim to maximize speaking opportunities during lessons—often using illustrations and visual aids—I encourage students to focus on reading and writing practice through homework assignments.

Talking with Mook-san for the first time was such a great experience. Even though it was just thirty minutes, she already gave me a clear and thoughtful plan. I’m sure anyone would be impressed by her professionalism and personality, and amazed by how knowledgeable, engaging, open, and dedicated she is. It truly inspired me to continue learning with her in the long run. I feel so lucky to have found mook-san, she's such an amazing teacher. ☺️🙌

Mook-san is an amazing teacher, inspiring and kind. It was my first time using italki and Mook-san was supportive and very patient. She works hard to customise every lesson for me, greatly appreciated. I had not studied Japanese for a decade, but she has helped me stay motivated. Thank you Mook-san! Highly recommended!
