I have over 3,000 hours of teaching experience, and have taught Japanese to students of all levels, from beginners to advanced.

【About Myself】
I was born in Iwate prefecture, Japan. I’ve also lived in Okinawa prefecture for 4 years and Fukushima prefecture for 3 years.
I still live in the Tohoku (North Eastern) region of Japan, so I can introduce you to Tohoku dialects, recommended travel spots, and local cuisine. If you’re interested, feel free to ask me about this region!
My hobbies & things I enjoy are:
・Listening to music
・Going to live performances and concerts, or watching recordings of them
・Studying Korean (I just started recently)
・Finding delicious bread (I love bread, so I enjoy trying different types of bread)
・Collecting character merch and other goodies

Please share about your hobbies and interests with me during our lessons.
