Introduction: With over 400 hours of Japanese teaching experience via Wyzant Tutoring, I will help instill confidence in you that you can learn Japanese and also make it fun! What makes me unique as a tutor is that I was born and raised in Japan and have Japanese native-level mastery (in terms of grammar, pronunciation and cultural understanding). Students have shared that they have appreciated my ability to answer questions regarding grammar clearly. I cater my lessons to each student and try to incorporate a variety of learning techniques. I also speak French proficiently and am currently learning Spanish, so I have insight into what it's like to learn a new language as an adult.
