Why Choose Izumi
INTERESTING & EXPERIENCED
Style
Izumi has been teaching Japanese for quite a long time and has quickly learned to adapt her lessons to each student. To most, it may seem like Izumi’s Lessons are very laid back – but they are in fact very deliberate.

For visual learners, Izumi is a star at summing up major learning points with cute cartoon / manga style drawings.
Art
Izumi is well known for her drawing and art style using cartoon-style characters to illustrate her lessons. These drawings and examples help students to retain more information from each class and add to the enjoyment of each lesson. If you have a request she may even make a personalised drawing for you!
