I graduated from SOAS with first in BA Japanese and Korean in 2018, Merit in MA Japanese Studies in 2020, and working part-time whilst having my year abroad in Waseda University, Tokyo. I have passed N1 and completed ‘420 hour Japanese teacher training course’. I have experience teaching in a primary school from year 1 to 6 in Hong Kong as a supply teacher where I mainly taught grammar about also various fields of Japanese culture, from Heian Japan to recycling rubbish in Japan – my students really enjoyed the lessons. I have also been a volunteer translator for International Federation of Aromatherapists since April 2020 where I translate their articles from English to Japanese. I was also a live interpreter at a law firm in Hong Kong where I interpret business meetings in Japanese/ English.
