Description

About Me
I am a professional language instructor from Japan with over 30 years of experience teaching Japanese and English. I hold multiple qualifications, including a Japanese Language Teaching Competency Certification (420-hour program) and internationally recognized English teaching certifications such as CELTA, TESOL, and TEFL. My IELTS score is 7.5 in speaking and listening, showcasing my strong grasp of English fluency.

I have taught more than 2,200 students globally, both in traditional classrooms and online, and my teaching philosophy emphasizes flexibility and student-centered learning. I design lessons that align with individual goals and learning preferences, ensuring every student feels supported and motivated.


For 20 years, I taught Japanese at a learning center, handling classes of 40 students, with lessons priced at ¥80,000 per hour. Due to changes in my living environment, I now provide online Japanese lessons that can be accessed from anywhere in the world.

 

 

While I’ve set the price for individual lessons to be as affordable as possible, these sessions are not part-time jobs; they are professional, high-quality lessons.
