My lessons are warm, engaging, and carefully tailored to each student’s individual needs.
With more than ten years of experience as a corporate trainer and business coach, I have developed a strong reputation for delivering clear, effective, and enjoyable lessons. I believe that learning a language is not only about memorizing grammar or vocabulary, but also about building confidence and discovering your own way of expressing ideas.

Thanks to my background in coaching, I’m skilled at adapting my teaching style to each learner’s situation and pace. Whether you are a beginner, preparing for an exam, or looking to improve your communication for work, I will guide you step by step, always making sure you feel supported and motivated. My students often say that I help them feel comfortable and confident, even when they make mistakes — and I see mistakes as an important part of learning. I face my own mistakes and limitations every day. There are times when I feel disappointed, but I believe that if we turn those moments into opportunities for growth, we can keep moving forward.

As a mother of two, I bring warmth, patience, and a friendly atmosphere to every lesson. I also truly understand the challenges of language learning myself, as I am currently studying at a UK university where English is my second language. Because of that, I know how it feels to struggle, but also how rewarding it is to keep improving.

Let’s work together to make your Japanese learning experience positive, practical, and full of discovery.
