Hi, Japanese learners in and around Amsterdam!

My name is Miki, and I’m a 29-year-old Japanese woman living in Amsterdam. I was born in Tokyo and soon after moved to the US, growing up in cities like Boston, Chicago, Singapore, Austin, and Tokyo. This diverse background has given me a unique perspective on language and culture, which I bring into my teaching.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Law and Politics from Keio University in Tokyo. During my university days, I developed a genuine interest in traveling the world and backpacked through South America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. If you’re also a traveler, we can share a lot about our experiences during lessons, making learning Japanese even more engaging and fun.

Professionally, I’ve pursued a career in banking, advertising, and a food-tech start-up. Now in Amsterdam, I work as a Wagashi (Japanese confectionery) professional, striving to spread the beauty of this traditional art. Additionally, I have experience working as an interpreter, which has honed my language skills further.

I look forward to helping you on your journey to learn Japanese, sharing not just the language but also insights from my diverse life experiences. Let's make learning Japanese an exciting adventure!

As a student who graduated from the European School, I have gained a lot of knowledge in different languages. Having learnt Greek, German, English, French, and even a bit of Italian, I have become familiar with the ways and mechanisms of teaching a language. I have always been passionate about writing and believe a lot in the importance of writing abilities to help individuals mentally, and the same counts for speaking and reading. Language is a form of self-expression that is of utmost importance to life, and I believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn these skills.
