This section outlines my current language proficiency across English, Japanese, and German. I have applied these skills professionally and academically in immersive environments.
| Language | Proficiency Level | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| English | Native | Primary language; used in professional and academic settings. |
| Japanese | N4 | Basic Conversational level; acquired through immersive cultural and language training in Japan. |
| German | A1 | Basic proficiency; currently expanding vocabulary and understanding with a weekly tutor. |
I worked as an Assistant Language Teacher (ALT) for ALTIA, teaching English language courses through the Japanese Board of Education. I collaborated with Japanese teachers to deliver engaging lessons, focused on communication and cultural exchange. The experience enhanced my Japanese communication and intercultural teaching skills.
While living in Kurashiki, I actively participated in Japanese language and cultural exchange sessions hosted at the Mizushima Myojincho Fureai Hall. The program emphasized spoken Japanese, group conversation, and traditional cultural practices. This hands-on immersion accelerated my listening and speaking abilities while building valuable local connections.
