Hello!

I have 20+ years of experience teaching English in Japan and online. My classes are fun and I enjoy chatting about a variety of topics! I have years of experience helping students pass the TOEFL & IELTS exam as well as practicing for interviews.

I have spent most of my adult life living, working and studying in the USA and Japan. I enjoy music especially live concerts, theatre (I love Broadway), reading and spending time with my family and friends. I love to travel and learn about new cultures. I also enjoy learning new languages. I speak Japanese and some Spanish. Right now I am also learning French.

Teaching Style

I'm a teacher that puts the focus on the student. In our first class together, I want to get to know your goals and we work towards helping you achieve them. I try to push my students a bit outside their comfort zones because that is where true learning happens. However, I want my students to feel comfortable to make mistakes because this is how you learn. I am not looking for perfection. I am looking for you to make progress.
