I am a native Japanese speaker and translator living in the United State. I have 2 years of experience to teach Japanese language to American high school students. During my college days, I assisted the Japanese class instructor and helped college students to read, write and speak Japanese. I have been tutoring on Wyzant for about one and a half years. Now I teach Japanese community education classes at two locations.

I studied linguistics in the United States and one of the linguistics classes I took was Applied Linguistics, basically how to teach foreign languages. I chose Japanese and ended up with getting self-published with a Japanese grammar book, "Speak Like Native Speakers Japanese Verb Conjugation I."

I want my students to enjoy learning Japanese, because it is fun to learn a foreign language. For beginner students, I can offer the lessons starting from the very basic grammar, greetings, numbers, the letter Hiragana, Katakana, and so on. For advanced students, reading lessons are available. We can read the Japanese book "Kiri no mukou no fushigina machi," which targets Japanese 4th or 5th graders to read. Or "Akage no Anne," the Japanese translation of "Anne of Green Gables," can be your textbook.

Let me help you to speak real Japanese. Your life will be more colorful.

Knowledgable and Patient Tutor

My daughter really enjoys her lessons with Isoko. Her approach is very organized and well thought out with her own lesson plan/book. My daughter had an interest in learning Japanese and Isoko is a wonderful tutor for her - she exhibits patience with my tween daughter and as a native-speaker, provides unsurpassed knowledge of the intricacies of the language. Thanks, Isoko! Thanks, Isoko!

Awesome teacher!

I learned verbs, basic greetings, and occupations. She's very patient, understanding, and helpful. So far she seems to be amazing at what she does! I only had one official lesson, but I learned so much in that hour that I couldn't get from a college professor.

Great teacher

Isoko is friendly, and kind when teaching my student Japanese. Writing, reading, and some cultural information during the lesson is giving my student the ability to remember what they are learning. Definitely will continue lessons as my student is excited for more.
