Bio
I am a Japanese to English translator, copy editor, proofreader, and Japanese and English language teacher. 
I translate creative and educational texts from Japanese into English, ensuring accuracy and clarity in tone and style. I am a native US English speaker and writer with a strong attention to detail in my proofreading and copy editing work. I focus on improving website and blog articles and e-commerce content, to be clear and accurate in American English. I help clients improve their professional English pronunciation, knowledge of grammar, and speaking confidence through weekly practice sessions tailored to their specific needs. Whether you just want more conversation practice or need to build specific skills, I can help you improve your skills in English so you can get better results in your work and goals. I have taught clients from a variety of language backgrounds, including Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Portuguese, and German. I have four years of in-class teaching experience in Japan and over 4 years of experience teaching online for adult learners. I help beginners and university students get started with studying Japanese, whether to improve their grades for a class or to get a solid foundation for learning on their own.
