★ Teacher’s Introduction:

Hello, everyone! Nice to meet you. My name is Mimi.

I’ve been living in the United States for over 20 years now, currently residing in New York with my husband. Back in Japan, I taught English to adults for eight years, starting from kindergarten.

Currently, I help expatriates settle into life in America by offering foundational support, which includes arranging and interpreting housing contracts, assisting with bank account openings and closures, providing simultaneous interpretation at hospitals and schools, and tutoring children at home.

I believe that acquiring language skills depends on one’s courage to speak. Instead of just focusing on grammar and vocabulary, my lessons emphasize enhancing practical communication skills through conversation practice. By connecting words effectively, we can achieve mutual understanding.

I aim to use my experience living in New York to create lessons that benefit from this unique environment. Whether you’re planning a trip to New York or visiting Japan from Europe or America for work or leisure, I can offer recommendations on tourist attractions and keep you updated with the latest information on souvenirs and restaurants. Whether you need last-minute Japanese conversation practice before your trip or insights into local life in Japan, let’s make the most of our surroundings and enjoy engaging conversations together!
