About Ryo
Hi, I'm Ryo, a rising senior studying Economics at UCLA, currently based in Tokyo. I grew up bilingual in English and Japanese and have spent years navigating both cultures personally and professionally, which gives me a genuine understanding of the challenges learners face on each side. Beyond academics, I've competed at a high level in basketball, including training in Japan, which taught me discipline, patience, and how to break down complex skills into manageable steps — the same mindset I bring to teaching language.
I currently work in sports business, supporting recruitment and market research across Japan and the US, so I understand both professional and academic communication needs. I'm reliable, prepared for every lesson, and genuinely invested in helping each student reach their specific goals, whether that's fluency, confidence, or passing an exam.

My approach starts with figuring out why you're actually learning the language, whether it's for travel, business, exams, or just everyday conversation , and building lessons around that goal instead of a generic textbook path. I'm a UCLA Economics student who grew up moving between the US and Japan, so I teach both English and Japanese from real bilingual experience, not just classroom theory.
A typical lesson mixes structured grammar and vocabulary work with active conversation practice, since I've found students retain far more when they're actually speaking rather than just memorizing. I adjust pacing depending on whether you're a total beginner or already conversational and want to sound more natural.
What sets me apart is genuine cultural fluency on both sides. I can explain not just what to say, but why native speakers phrase things the way they do. Lessons work well for students of any age or level, from kids just starting out to adults preparing for business or exams.
