I’m Kaori from Japan. I have a master's degree in linguistics. I was taking Spanish at school, so I understand the learners' point of view. I completed my Japanese teaching practice in the U.S. and English teaching practice in Japan. So I have teaching certificates in both languages. I used to teach Japanese at a university (U.S). I’ve been teaching online since 2019 as well although I was focused on university work for a while.

I want to make sure you reach your goal. I think teaching approaches should be changed from student to student, and being able to meet students' needs is also the beauty of one-to-one teaching. I have textbooks called Genki I & II, Tobira, and Intermediate Japanese, so I will probably refer to these materials and add some vocabulary/phrases too. So what’s your objective? To order something delicious Japanese food? For traveling? (If so, where are you going?) For business? (If so, what kind of business?) Translation? Or just need a conversation partner to actually correct your Japanese? Ooh maybe you’re trying to watch anime without subtitles?! I’d be happy to help you so let’s have fun!
Other than teaching, I was working at a Japanese company as a translator before coming to the States. I'm interested in language transfer. So, I can do Japanese proofreading as well.
