I am a native Japanese speaker from Nagoya, Japan, and have lived in the U.S. for the past 28 years. With 25+ years of teaching experience, I've helped students of all ages and backgrounds build confidence and fluency in both Japanese and English. I hold a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics / TESOL and a BA in Psychology. For the past 15 years, I've specialized in one-on-one online instruction, working with young children, college students, professionals, and lifelong learners across the globe.

When it comes to Japanese, I make learning both practical and fun. My lessons are fully customized to your goals, interests, and learning style, whether you're studying for the JLPT, AP Japanese, or just want to enjoy travel or conversation. I use a wide variety of materials, from textbooks and videos to anime, manga, flashcards, and music. I also love weaving in cultural insights, from traditional customs to pop culture and current trends in Japan. Students often tell me they appreciate how engaging and encouraging my lessons are, and how much they enjoy learning not just the language, but the culture too.

In addition to Japanese, I bring that same personalized approach to English language instruction. I help learners improve their reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills so they can communicate clearly and confidently in academic, professional, or everyday settings. Whether you're preparing for university admission, professional certification, or want to thrive in an English-speaking environment, I offer structured lessons with detailed feedback and ongoing support. I would love to support you in your language learning journey, please feel free to reach out with any questions or to get started!
