Hello!
My name is pop, and I am a math and arithmetic teacher.
I graduated from Waseda University’s Faculty of Science and Engineering (now the Faculty of Creative Science and Engineering), and have been living in the UK for over 20 years, and am currently a mother of two.
I worked as a private tutor for four years when I was in college, and then took a break for a while. However, I became concerned about the math education in schools in the UK and started teaching math to my own children, which reminded me that I still love teaching math and arithmetic to children.
For the past three years, I have been working as an online tutor for another company, teaching math and arithmetic to elementary and middle school students. I also continue to tutor privately online, not only for students living in the UK, but also for students living in Japan and the US.
I believe that it is often difficult for parents and children to learn together, as children can be very picky.
As your child gets older, you may find that there are times when you try to teach them how to study, but due to the strength of your feelings for your child, there are times when you end up getting into an argument or things don’t go as well as expected.
Although I cannot take the place of the parents, I will try my best to teach your child in a fun and easy-to-understand way.
One of my students’ parents once said to me, “You are like a town doctor without a medical license!” as a compliment(?).
My job is to teach math and arithmetic, but I also believe that listening to the child and their parents is an important part of my job, so I will do my best to help them reach their goals together with their families.
I love to talk, so I would like the child to feel free to talk to me about anything during their lessons, whether it is about their studies, school, or just chatting.
I have been working with students such as the following:
I am available for lessons mainly in the evening and at night (Japan time), but I am also flexible with other times so please feel free to contact me.
【Available Lesson Subjects】
Math and arithmetic (lessons can be offered in Japanese or English)
☆I also offer Hiroo Gakuen AG courses (広尾学園AGコース).☆
【I teach mainly elementary and junior high school students!】
From students who feel that they are not good at math and arithmetic, to students who are aiming for mid to top-ranked schools, I will help each student determine what is necessary to achieve their goals and work with them to make progress.
☆Students who want to follow up on their studies at a preparatory school
☆Students who are thinking of taking the entrance examination in Japan
☆Students who are attending an international school in Japan and are planning to take the entrance examination in Japan
☆Students who would like to study for school together (Systematic mathematics lesson are also available for junior and senior high schools)
I will do everything I can to help you.
【Lesson Style】
Lessons will be conducted via video call (either Zoom or Skype) as well as online whiteboard sharing, with both parties writing on the board.
I will not only solve the questions, but also provide explanations necessary for solving each questions. If you don’t understand something, I will explain it to you again and again to make sure that you understand it.
After each lesson, I will share a PDF file of the questions, answers, and whiteboard used during the lesson so that you can use it for review.
☆I can teach according to your preferred materials (cram school textbooks, question books, textbooks, etc.).
If you are using an iPad, you may need to use the iPad for the whiteboard and a smartphone or desktop/laptop for video communication.
In any case, it will be easier to write on the whiteboard if you can use a digital pen such as an Apple Pencil or Wacom.
(Even if you don’t have a digital pen, you can still take lessons.)
【Teaching Experience】
◼︎ 4 years as a university student: tutored junior high and high school students, and during long vacations, I taught elementary school students at a private group tutoring school.
◼︎ 3 years as an online tutor: Taught math and arithmetic mainly to elementary and junior high school students. I also prepared returnee students for Japanese entrance examinations.
◼︎ 3+ years as a private tutor: Teaching for 11+ and 13+, boarding school students, and high school students at GCSE level.
Please make a lesson reservations at least 48 hours before your desired lesson time, if possible, as I do not want to be underprepared for your lesson.
I will do my best to accommodate your desired lesson schedule even if it is not available on my schedule, so please feel free to contact me.

Thank you!
