Hello everyone! Thanks for visiting my profile page :)
Are you interested in Japanese Culture? Would you like to start learning a new language? Let's get started!!
【About myself】
I have lived in Canada for about 10 years and I have taught Japanese as a private tutor for about 9 years. It's been a pleasure to meet people from all over the world, study Japanese together, and share Japanese culture.
【How do we study?】
I use a method called "Active learning". You need to study and prepare before the lesson in order to be involved in the learning process actively. In that way, you can learn the language effectively. I have been learning English for over 15 years, and all I can say is the key to success is repetition and being continuous!
【Would it be possible to speak Japanese fluently?】
Many people ask me how long will it take to speak Japanese fluently. My answer is it depends on you. If you engage with Japanese more time every day, you will acquire it faster. There are many ways to engage with your learning language. It might be like watching your favorite Japanese shows or writing a diary every day in Japanese, and so on. Find a fun way to learn Japanese with me!

I accept all levels of students so if you're a beginner, I will teach you from your level of comfort.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me at the trial lesson!

I have had about 10 lessons with Kanoko and she is an excellent tutor. She has been very patient with me even though I have been very slow. Now already we are having (small) conversations. I really look forward to each lesson and feel that I am improving a lot each time.

Kanako is very patient with me and is adapting very good to my current level of knowledge. I studied some years ago, so I kinda knew a lot, but also forgot most of it. She can find the perfect line between challenge and overwhelm. I can recommend Kanako!

Kanako-san is a very good teacher, and can explain grammatical points very well. She is patient and makes sure that you are understanding the material.
