I have spent my career working with words and cultures. After graduating from Dokkyo University (Faculty of Foreign Languages), I worked as a secretary at a British trading company, a researcher at a think tank, and a lecturer at a vocational school. Later, as an immigration lawyer (Gyoseishoshi), I supported foreign professionals in Japan for over 30 years.
Today, I focus on teaching Japanese online to business professionals around the world. I also run the Shigyo Book Review AssociationⓇ, where I share insights from business books and publish e-books.
My passion is helping foreign professionals bridge the cultural and communication gaps when working with Japanese colleagues and clients. AI can generate “correct” Japanese, but it often fails to move people. I teach the practical expressions and cultural nuances that make communication effective in real business.
My favorite motto is: “Learning is fun!” I hope you will enjoy my courses and immediately apply what you learn in your daily work.
