Teaches Japanese
Aiko Morimoto
Kana, kanji and polite conversation
Aiko introduces Japanese scripts with patience and plenty of handwriting practice, then quickly connects them to menus, signs and messages learners will meet in real life.
She curates the Japanese Film Evening and enjoys showing how politeness levels change a conversation.
Teaching approach
Small daily steps — a few characters, a few phrases, every day.
