## About

I'm a Japanese language instructor based in Georgia, originally from Japan. I work with adult learners who are frustrated with beginner-level progress, offering flexible one-on-one lessons tailored to individual schedules and goals.

Beyond grammar and vocabulary, I weave in **Japanese culture and real-world context**. I also offer a unique **yoga + language hybrid lesson** that combines physical practice with dual-language instruction, giving students a different way to absorb the language while exploring cultural aspects of Japan.

  Hi, I’m Junko! 🇯🇵 I’m a native Japanese teacher with a background in communication, PR, and event planning in Japan. After moving to the U.S., I organized Japanese culture exchange events with 1,000+ participants and discovered how much I love helping people connect through language and culture. My motto: You don’t need perfect Japanese. You need the confidence to communicate. My lessons focus on real, practical Japanese—not just textbooks. Let’s learn Japanese and have fun along the way!
