Experience Summary
Born and raised in Honolulu, HI.
Japanese is my first language and I have always been very immersed in my culture. I have attended Japanese school in Hawaii (covering Reading, Math, History, Science, Social Studies, etc.) for 9 years, took Japanese calligraphy for 6 years (and received several awards for it) and took Taiko for 7 years.
I did not learn to speak English fluently until the 5th grade, so I can relate when it comes to the challenges and difficulties of learning a new language.
Teaching Style
- Open discussion
- Structured
- Game style
I am very open to various teaching styles, since everyone learns differently.
My Hobbies
Cooking, hula, yoga, hiking, childcare, plants, and caring for my two Shih Tzus (Sophie and Momo)
