About Naomi
Hajimemashite! Nice to meet you!
My Education:
I was born and raised in Northern Japan, where I attended traditional Japanese schools, until I came to the United States to attend college. I have two graduate degrees, and a graduate certificate in Education and Instructional Design.
My specialities are:
️* Explaining subtle nuances in Japanese grammar and culture that differ from English
*️ Japanese language and etiquette for travel, doing business in Japan, or working with Japanese clients & partners
*️ Bilingual education
*️ Incorporating interests and topics that are relevant to YOU for engaging lessons
Work Highlights:
I've worked cross-culturally between Japan and the US, in IT, Marketing, and Film and Media, where I spoke, wrote, created content in Japanese, and interacted with Japanese clients on a daily basis. Over the past 20+ years, I regularly travel to Japan for business, and have presented at trade shows, conducted interviews and tech webinars for Japanese audiences. I've coached C-level executives and medical doctors for their presentations, press conferences, and business meetings in Japan.
As a life-long learner and culture lover, I keep up to date on current Japanese culture and trends, language, and new educational content and methods.
My Background:
I was raised in a bilingual environment, where my siblings and I were fully immersed in Japanese at school and outside of the home, and our English-teacher mother tutored us in English at home. Having come from such a background myself, Japanese bilingual education is one of my specialties.
Some fun things♫
I'm a big dog lover, and enjoy cooking -- especially Japanese dishes! In my free time I'm a musician and an artist.
