Certified Japanese language teacher and manga creator I like meeting new people and learning new things. I love music, art, nature, and squirrels. Recently, I've been learning psychology. 2010 Working for relocation company Cartus Cartus 2012 Top Language Teacher Club Italia Nagoya, Toyota 2016- Published six textbooks Japanese textbook "practical Japanese 1,2, 3 " easy and fun katankana" "hiragana" "kanji" 2019 manga (short comic)has been serialized in a website "Matcha" 2022 Published "Yasanichi manga Japan Guide" For formal lessons, I make individual lesson plans for each student and use pdf, real-life materials (menus, etc.) and textbooks. For informal sessions, I don't make lesson plans. Students prepare a topic and focus on conversation. Informal sessions are aimed at intermediate to advanced students, as a certain level of proficiency is required to manage a somewhat fluid conversation.

I'm glad I have such a wonderful teacher for something so important to me. I've only had two lessons so far, but both have been very comfortable and very informative. I greatly enjoy these lessons, and Kiyomi is amazing ❤️

I was at first nervous to start one on one lessons, but Ogawa sensei quickly helped me feel at ease. Her teaching style is supportive and flexible. It really helps that she wrote her own textbook, which is very user friendly. I especially appreciate that she has tailored lessons to my personal interests so that what I am learning will help with my next trip to Japan. I highly recommend Ogawa sensei.

I've had two lessons with her so far and it's been delightful. she immediately adjusted to my currently knowledge level and teaches through conversation. it feels like you're having a friendly chat and just so happen to be learning sentence structure and vocab on the way. she makes it fun without neglecting to teach you. she also provides homework if you want it which is very nice in my opinion

Très bien. Il s'agissait à ma demande d'une discussion en Japonais, sans plan préalable ni projection sur de futurs cours (car ce qui m'intéresse est de discuter de manière informelle!)
