I’ve worked with Kazuyo for years, and the most notable point I could make about her value as a teacher is her professional experience. She worked in senior management at a global firm for over a decade, and she’s been successful in business, both within and outside of Japan. And in addition to her own experience studying in the USA, Kazuyo supported her daughter in learning English and entering and graduating from university there. This experience, combined with her well-traveled background, and government-issued license to teach Japanese, sets her clearly apart from most others.
