about me

Hello! My name is Junko, and I have been teaching Japanese
for over seven years.
Currently, I live in Canada, where I share my passion
for language and culture with students from around the world.
I hold a Master's degree in Education
from Oklahoma City University in the United States,
which has broadened my perspective on effective teaching methods.
I'm also an avid book lover, and I even enjoy reading textbooks!
I created this website by bringing together my career, education, and personal interests to help those who may feel uncertain about
which Japanese textbooks to choose.
I hope it serves as a valuable resource for you.

“Each textbook author has their own philosophy and beliefs.
I really enjoy connecting with the thoughts and intentions of authors
who support learners and continually seek ways to help them move forward.”
