I am currently pursuing my Master's in Teaching English, focusing on junior high and high school education. My coursework in language acquisition, literature, and curriculum design has prepared me to create effective lessons for students of various levels. Additionally, I have been student teaching for several months, gaining experience in classroom management and lesson adaptation to meet individual student needs.

I have two years of experience teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) to elementary and high school students in Japan. I used communicative and task-based approaches to enhance their speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. I am also fluent in Japanese, holding an N1 certification, and have taught beginner to intermediate-level Japanese at the college level for one year, focusing on conversational practice and interactive activities.

My diverse teaching experience allows me to adapt lessons to the needs of each student and create a positive, engaging learning environment.

Wonderful Japanese Tutor

I have found Maya to be the perfect Japanese tutor. Very adept at sculpting the lesson to fit my current level and help me ascend to the next level, and also at melding different language skills within the same activity. Also, more generally speaking, very personable and enjoyable to work with. Don't hesitate– book your lesson with Maya!
