I was born and raised in Japan. I live in Fukuoka with my 3kids.
I’m a happy mother who loves kids.
One year has just passed since I became a Japanese teacher.
I also have been learning English.
It is hard to see progress in language study, isn't it?
When you meet a teacher who you want to study with, your Japanese improves, and I would be happy if I could be one of those teachers for you.
I think no matter how old we get it's wonderful to learn
something new.
So I'm excited to see you here.
Let me know about you and your country.
I'm happy to help you with your Japanese.
I look forward to seeing you in my lesson.

My lessons & teaching style
"Enjoy Japanese" Let's work up a good sweat by speaking a lot.
For general : I will teach you the "GENKI textbook", with which you can learn the Japanese language and culture.
Basically, the textbook is not opened during the lesson.
After the lesson, we send you feedback and give a small test for confirmation.
My lessons are efficient, which saves your time and gives you more time to speak by preparing and reviewing your lessons.
I encourage you and help you make sentences on your own with the grammar you learned.
I've been taking lessons with Mika-Sensei for three years now! It's amazing how time flies. I've been super busy with my college work as I am nearing the end of my degree program but I still love to try and make time to take Japanese lessons with Mika-Sensei and get that practice in whenever I can. It's always so much fun learning new words and phrases! Once I graduate from college, I fully plan on devoting much more of my time to learning and studying Japanese with Mika-Sensei!

Mika-sensei is a great teacher! I’ve done many lessons with her and she’s always very encouraging and patient with me. We do some free talk and some grammar based on the genki books, I feel like I was able to improve a lot of because of her! ありがとうございます🙂
