As I understand Spanish and Portuguese as well, I have taught Japanese not only English speakers but also those speakers in Japan.

I took a certificate by attending 420-hour Japanese language teacher training course in Japan 20 years ago. As I understand Spanish and Portuguese as well, I have taught Japanese not only English speakers but also those speakers in Japan. My experience includes : teaching useful phrases, etiquette and culture, reading "anime" together (for young students), reviewing job resumes, coaching for job interviews, interpreting at banks, city offices and medical clinics (for adults), translation of correspondence for trading companies.

As I was an "after five" tutor for students in Japan, for 16 years, I was used to visit different students' house. Since I immigrated to the USA, I have taught Japanese to those who had different types of needs from high school students to adults for 5 - 6 years. I offer skype tutoring as well.
Let's enjoy working together!

Japanese

Japanese

I have 18 years of tutoring experience in Japan. I've tutored children from elementary school to high school. Using teaching experience, I have also taught foreigners Japanese. I supported them as a translator, too, when they needed to go to the bank, real estate agency, clinic and so on.
Portuguese

Portuguese

I once worked for a Brazilian Bank in a branch of Japan where many Japanese Brazilian immigrants live. I also have experience of working as an interpreter and translator for a city office to support Brazilian and Hispanic people, and for a company to translate business e-mails and Brazilian regulations to exports products. As for Portuguese and Spanish, I'm not a native speaker, beginners are welcome. Rates could be fairly reasonable.

Great first impression.

Had a pleasant 1st lesson and look forward to my next lesson. I do feel very comfortable with Hisae and see myself having meaningful conversations in Japanese in the smear future.

Hisae is an excellent tutor!

Hisae really cares about you as a student and does a great job building your knowledge of Japanese. When the topics are complex, she is able to explain in a very clear and concise manner. Very patient, very capable. Highly recommended!

Excellent tutor

Hisae san is very patient and is helping me "refresh" the Japanese I studied over 20 years ago. I am delighted that we were connected through this website.

Excellent tutor.

My first lesson with Hisae was fantastic! She was right on time for the lesson and very prepared. I really appreciated her attention to pronunciation and social customs. I learned a lot, and I am looking forward to our next lesson.

Very Patient

My daughter is a beginner in Japanese and Hisae was very patient with her. Hisae was able to make my daughter more comfortable with learning Japanese and is looking forward to more lessons.
