My courses are mainly designed for children (3rd grade and above) to foster digital creativity. I am certified in youth counseling and my lesson have an at-home atmosphere that is tailored to each individual’s unique needs.I plan on offering lesson on the following topics:
- Basic programming (Scratch, etc.)
- 3D modeling (Tinker CAD, etc.)
- Music creation (Studio one5, etc.)
- Video editing (Slow Movie Maker, etc.)
*The softwares I use in my lessons are generally free of charge. Some of the software may require you to create an account and installing it to your device.
I want to paint! I want to create art! But I don’t know what to draw, and I don’t have the artistic skills... Non, non, you can draw without thinking about what to draw. And what you draw may have a hidden message within it.
I am also planning on organizing a therapy workshop where such magical pieces of art can be created.
I have been involved in freelance graphic design and multimedia design production for over 20 years.In addition to teaching Illustrator and Photoshop design to working adults, I also have experience in planning and managing art events at welfare facilities, teaching summer vacation poster creations at elementary schools, and supporting children who cannot attend school.
I have studied psychology and bodywork, and have conducted art therapy workshops.Currently, I teach Scratch, 3D, DTM, video editing, and more online, mainly to higher elementary to middle school students.
I enjoy techno music and folk instruments, and I even play my own flute and an Australian didgeridoo instrument. I also participate in clubs and music events.[Qualifications]

In the early 1980s, when I was a sixth grader, I first encountered computers and was fascinated by them. When I entered junior high school, I rode my bicycle to an electronics store after school and learned how to use computers by asking the store owner about them. I would play around with the computers displayed in the store.Time went by, and I started working for a chemical company, but I was fascinated by digital design, so I left the company to study multimedia at a vocational school. After graduation, I worked for a graphic design office and then became a freelance designer, which I have continued to so to this day. During this time, I went through the transition of digitalization.I have been searching for a work style that involves using the Internet for some time now, so I feel that now is a good time.Today, adults and children alike are smartphone users.High-speed Internet, rather than just computer communications, has become a familiar and commonplace part of our lives, further accelerating the need for digital skills. Having digital skills in this society is no longer a special skill.For children heading into the future, it is inevitable that they will be using computers.Programming education has started in elementary schools from 2020, and people tend to imagine that “computers = programming,” and the impression is that the educationalization of computers has conversely raised the hurdle, making it a “study,” “something to be learned,” and “difficult.”Computers are, inherently, fun and useful tools. Therefore, I hope to help improve your skills while giving you the chance to enjoy using computers as a “beneficial tool” for both yourself and others, without making you dislike computers.
