Hello! I'm Kaori Kanao, and I have a passion for teaching Japanese.
Over the years, I've had the pleasure of working with many students, making their learning experience enjoyable and effective.
I started my journey in Japanese education by volunteering in the Philippines for a year, where I taught Japanese to a wide range of learners, from elementary school students to adults. Additionally, I have over 1200 hours of online teaching experience and have guided more than 60 students. I excel at creating a relaxed learning environment and am skilled at listening to and addressing my students' needs.
I graduated from Hiroshima University with a degree in Engineering. Alongside my teaching career, I have experience as a psychological counselor, which helps me foster a supportive and stress-free learning atmosphere.
In addition to being a Japanese teacher, I am also a beekeeper and have a deep love for nature. Unlike typical beekeepers, I do not harvest honey but instead raise bees and sell them to farmers. Spending time in nature helps me stay relaxed and grounded.
Moreover, I study English and Spanish, which gives me a unique understanding of the challenges faced by language learners. This experience allows me to empathize with my students and provide them with the best possible learning experience.
Join me at Kazenoka, and let's embark on a fun and effective Japanese learning journey together!

Kaori-sensei is the best tutor I've had so far. I am an intermediate learner, yet I struggled even with daily conversations in Japanese. Every week, we have conversational classes, and it's fun! Kaori-sensei is a very enthusiastic yet patient and caring teacher. She helps me a lot with expanding my vocabulary, learning commonly used phrases, and overall navigating my life in Japan. It was because of her that I managed to get through a job interview in Japanese and got my very first part-time job in Japan.
かおり先生は、今までの日本語のチューターのうちで一番です。私は中級者ですが、日常会話すらもうまくできなかったです。いつだったか日常会話の授業を受けることにしていましたが、そんなに楽しいとは思わなかったです。かおり先生はとても熱心で、いつも忍耐強く、思いやりのある先生だと思います。語彙力を増強したり、使われる用語を覚えたりしていただくだけでなく、一般に日本での生活にも助かります。日本語での面接に成功して、日本で初めてのアルバイトをすることができたも、かおり先生のおかげです。

I have been learning Japanese with Kaori for several months now, and I am thrilled with my progress, especially in speaking. Kaori creates a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere during her lessons so it's easy to open and talk even if you make mistakes. We are having lessons adjusted to my specific needs and interests, I can bring my own topic or part of a text I found difficult to read or understand, so each session engaging, fun, and interesting. She prepares individual materials from grammar or words with exercises, whatever I need and want to repeat. She often shares interesting things about Japanese culture and habits, also shares vocabulary from real life, some young slang etc. I highly recommend Kaori to anyone looking to learn Japanese effectively and enjoyably!
