  • Online Tuition

I'm Isobel and I'm an enthusiastic, friendly languages teacher! I have been studying Japanese for over eight years. I studied at the Tokyo University of Foreign Studies and gained an N3 in the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT July 2017). In 2019 I spent 10 months in Kyoto studying at the Institute of liberal arts at Doshisha University and have recently returned. I have a deep interest and respect for the history and culture of Japan. My fluency and understanding has been further enhanced by time spent studying, working and living in the country.

I have a TEFL qualification and am an experienced proof reader of English assignments for University students who have English as a second language. I have also volunteered with a yorkshire-based group to teach newly arrived refugees to the UK english. 

I am based in South Leicestershire and can provide daytime as well as evening lessons online and hopefully in person once it is safe to do so. I hope to see you soon!

    My 15 year old son has decided that he wants to learn Japanese in his spare time. He liked Isobel's profile as she hold's an N3 which he understands to be a good measure of proficiency. He genuinely feels as though he learned things, and likes that while there was no "Homework", she gave him a copy of the Hiragana to study in his own time. It's a thumbs up from Finn!
