I helped students with reading, speaking and writing (mostly practice Kanji characters) by going through textbooks my students had.

During lockdown in Victoria, I prepared slides that aligned to the textbooks (Genki, JLPT N5) with illustrations for a better understanding of a slight nuance that stundets often get confused.

Post lockdown, I got to meet students in person and I was able to have a smooth conversation in Japanese (no internet lagging!) using whiteboard and grammer magnets found online.

Below are some examples of resoueces I hugely got inspired.

Side Projects

Writing

2021

I write things that I, as a Japanese, feel every day in Australia. At first, I started writing to organize my thoughts but my posts slowly started getting likes and I noticed that I could be of someone's help. Since then I share my thoughts with people who think of moving to Australia (or simply interested in the culture)
