Teacher
Mami Ishibashi
My name is Mami Ishibashi.
I was born in Japan and raised in the United States. Both English and Japanese are my native languages.
Starting off with teaching English part-time to Japanese people during my University years, I eventually also got into teaching Japanese to non-Japanese people living in Tokyo, helping them out to learn conversational Japanese as well as exam preparations such as JLPT.
Teaching both English and Japanese has been a part of my life for the past 10+ years as a freelance/part time job which I enjoy a lot, and by working with you, I hope to help even more people who are in need.
