Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 13 de Aug de 2021Tema de interésViajesModa y bellezaAnimación y cómicsHistoriaComida
I was born in Tokyo and raised in Kanagawa prefecture, which is next to Tokyo. I like traveling, watching Netflix, cooking, and baking. Because the major for both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees was intercultural communication, I enjoy learning about other cultures and sharing mine.
I moved from Japan to the States recently and am looking for new students!
私は東京都で生まれて、神奈川県で育ちました。旅行や、ネットフリックスを見ること、料理や、お菓子作りが好きです。大学・大学院での専攻が国際文化学だったので、異文化を学んだり、自分の文化を発信するのも好きです。

Yo como profesor
I started teaching Japanese in 2013 as a volunteer in my hometown, and completed all the requirements of the Japanese Language Teacher Training Course in 2020. Since then, I have been teaching Japanese as a certified teacher, and I have met people from more than 30 countries through this teaching career so far. I started teaching part-time on italki in August 2021, and I have been meeting wonderful students here as well!
2013年に地元でボランティア講師として日本語を教え始め、2020年に日本語教師の資格を取得しました。それからは、有資格の教師として日本語を教えていて、日本語を教えることを通じて今まで30カ国以上の人に出会いました。italkiは2021年8月にパートタイムで始め、ここでも素晴らしい生徒さんたちに出会えています。Mis clases y método de enseñanza
Because italki is mainly for private lessons, I would like to focus on what and how the students want to study. I think studying Japanese in Japanese is a bit too hard sometimes (especially for beginners), so I would love to help students by using English if needed. It would be nice if I could share my Japanese calligraphy skills or my study at graduate school (about translating Japanese anime) as a fun way to study Japanese too.
I am currently accepting new students since I moved to the States and started working in different time zone. If you are interested in my lessons, please feel free to message me. For the cancellation policy, please check the lesson booking page.Mi material didáctico

Experiencia laboral
2018 - 2020
Chief of English Tour GuidesI had worked at Samurai Museum in Tokyo as an English tour guide. Unfortunately, the museum has been closed due to the pandemic, but we can talk about Japanese Samurai, history, swords, armor, and so on during the lesson!
2016 - 2020
Tutor (for English, Japanese, and math)I taught Japanese and math to the 2nd-6th grade Japanese students, and English to the 7th-12th Japanese students at a cram school. The lessons were mostly private, and I learned how important to think about what the students really need and change the lesson styles depending on each student and their individual needs.
2022 - 2023
SecretaryI worked on U.S. Navy bases in Japan. My job was to work for U.S. civilian department heads as their secretary, which included language and cultural support. I used English daily at work.

For my two years of having Kana as my teacher, she is very kind and patient teacher. She waits for me if I’m not confident in my speaking. She also will help correct you if you need it. She also helps you feel more confident in your speaking by talking with you about your life in Japanese every lesson. Also the mini conversations during each lesson about what you’re learning helps a ton. I would recommend her to anyone as a Japanese tutor.

Because I really love Japan + Japanese, I asked Kana if I can try to read something about Japan, on top of my textbook lesson. I like travelling in Japan, and she chose a book and tailor made the content for my level, and we talked about a basic understanding of Japan today. It’s a really nice and interesting lesson when I can read and learn Japanese with no pressure at all. I enjoyed it so much. Really a big thank you to Kana!
