About me
I am a certified Japanese language teacher based in Vancouver, with the qualifications and passion to support diverse learners.
More than language —
a meaningful experience.
I previously worked as an architect, which is a completely different field. After obtaining my certification as a Japanese language teacher, I moved to Vancouver, Canada, where I’m currently studying English and digital marketing.
After leaving my previous job, I studied English at a language school overseas to improve my skills. During that time, I realized how wonderful it is to teach languages. Teaching a foreign language is not just about grammar and vocabulary—it’s about sharing culture, creating memorable experiences, and expanding future possibilities. I hope to offer my students not only language lessons, but also meaningful experiences that no certification can replace.
Lessons & Courses
Course and Schedule Options
We offer four main courses here. The first is a beginner-level course that starts with learning Hiragana and Katakana. The other three courses follow the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) and are divided into levels A to C. All lessons are one-on-one, providing personalized attention to each student. Classes are held online by default, but if you're based in Vancouver, in-person lessons may be arranged upon request. You can choose your preferred time slot from the table below, but feel free to contact us if you need a different schedule. Textbooks can be selected from the options listed further below.
My Experience
2017-2023
TAKENAKA Corporation
MEP Engineer
I worked as an architect in Japan for seven years, handling a large volume of work and collaborating with a wide range of people. In order to broaden my horizons even further, I decided to leave that role and pursue the next chapter in my journey.
2023-2024
Tokyo Central Japanese Language School
420-Hour Japanese Teacher Certification Course
Here, I built a strong foundation as a Japanese language teacher. By studying a wide range of topics—from grammar to teaching methods—I am now able to provide my students with deeper and more comprehensive knowledge.
2025-2026
Cornerstone Community College
digital marketing
Since 2025, I have been studying English and digital marketing in Vancouver, Canada. It was a big decision for me, but I chose to take on a new challenge. My English skills are still developing, but they’ve improved a lot over time. If you’re someone who wants to learn Japanese but feels hesitant because you only speak English, don’t worry—I can support you in English too. Let’s take the first step toward a new challenge together!
