Many nuclear researchers from all over the world come to live in the area where I reside. While many of them wanted to learn Japanese, the volunteer teachers who taught them struggled to teach effectively. It was then that I realized the potential of becoming a Japanese language teacher, especially since this profession offers many exciting opportunities to connect with people from all over the world through online platforms. I obtained the necessary qualifications and became a Japanese language teacher with the hope of helping those who want to learn the language and sharing with them the rich culture of Japan.

I spent seven years of my childhood in the UK and the US. And I studied abroad in the UK for a year. During my experience, I was supported by many people, especially my ESL teachers and friends. Being able to use English has broadened my life. I’ve always wanted to support those who want to use foreign language to better their life or have enjoyable experiences.

I used to teach English at a high school in Japan. I am interested in languages themselves and really enjoy teaching. It’s really interesting for me to explore foreign countries as if I were in a game, and talking with people using English has made it even more exciting. If you are interested in Japan and want to enjoy talking with Japanese people, I would like to help you with my lessons!

Due to the pandemic, I felt like my world had become smaller, and I wanted to find ways to expand it. Teaching Japanese to a variety of students felt like the perfect opportunity to use my life experiences, including my work, parenting, and living in various places in Japan and overseas. I believe that by sharing my experiences, I can help my students gain a deeper understanding of the language and culture of Japan, while also learning about different perspectives and lifestyles. Ultimately, I see teaching Japanese as a fulfilling and rewarding career that allows me to continue learning and growing alongside my students.
