As a native Japanese speaker, I offer tutoring in the language for all levels. With a strong focus on building conversational skills, cultural understanding and written skills for everyday and travel purposes, I aim to cultivate a solid foundation for students of Japanese. I am particularly passionate about tutoring students with motivation. In my experience the more motivated students are, the quicker they learn. It also makes lessons more productive and enjoyable. I really enjoy seeing student progress and improvement.
