Hi everyone :) My name is Mao,a native Japanese speaker. I have completed ”the studies for the 420 hour Advanced Japanese Teacher Training Course” *. I've been teaching Japanese almost for five years. I teach beginner course, intermediate, and advanced. I love teaching and I enjoy interacting with different people from different countries through teaching! I also learn a lot of things from students while I teach. While I teach, what I value is not only memorizing words and grammars in theoretically but also "how to use words and grammars in practically." And I am really taking care of that what will always remain in student's heart!
Let me talk a little bit about myself. I graduated from one of the universities of English-speaking countries. "Days" in my college life was just so amzing. I quickly established my ability, inspired by the encounter with fantastic professors and friends. Encounters with various people/things really made me grow!
I love traveling. I enjoy differences whereever I visit! A lot of things and hapenings over my life made me become a globalized person and I found that our planet is actually amazing and beautiful:) I've been traveling mostly in Asia nowadays~ Once I have done with my mission here in Asia, I would love to visit Europe since I think it is very interesting to see the World from different angles!!
my favorites:Art(specialty: Chinese dance.)、Rosalie Rupp Prussing(Rosalie Prussing is one of Hawaii's most colorful folk-artists.) ,Philosophy, Southeast Asia/Aouth Asian Culture&Cuisine, Indonesian&Thai songs/music、Indian films(I am a big fan of Aamir Khan !!), Literature..
