Hiroko: Coulee City tutor
Certified Tutor
I hold a Master's degree in International Studies from the University of Denver. With experience teaching Japanese to colleagues and my own children, I am passionate about sharing the intricacies of my language and culture. My approach is tailored to each student's level and goals, emphasizing the importance of grammar and context in mastering Japanese. I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students can engage with the nuances of the language, such as the use of keigo and particles. My dedication to teaching is further demonstrated by my success in the ITOEN North America Haiku Competition, where I received a silver award. I look forward to helping students achieve their language goals while fostering a genuine appreciation for Japanese culture.

I enjoy reading, writing haiku poetry, and making traditional Japanese sweets using sweet red bean paste. I also stay active through pickleball, tennis, cross-country skiing, and taking fitness classes at the gym. Another favorite pastime of mine is exploring different restaurants and enjoying good food with friends.
