English Tutoring, improving your speaking and writing skills in English
Hi, my name is Alison! I am offering English tutorial courses for school students working on English exams, and adults interested in practising English conversations.
For students: I myself have taken many English tests, including TOEFL and IETLS (8.5/9). I am happy to help you if you are applying for Universities abroad, preparing for English tests, or college entrance exam.
For adult learners: I obtained my CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), accredited by Cambridge English, in 2021. I can offer tailored lessons based on your needs, be it speaking, listening, or writing-focused classes.
One special course I offer is a writing-feedback course in which we focus on improving your essay writing skills.
I also speak Chinese, so extra point if you would like to learn some Chinese too.

About Me
It has been a long journey for me to improve my English as a second language, so yes, I can understand what you might be struggling with and what sort of assistance will come be most helpful!I took many English Tests and got better at them over time. If you are preparing for these, I can help.
I love conversing with people about travel, food, pictures, museums, movies, music and whatnot.
I do have a few degrees too, so if you are interested in research/graduate school, I think my experience may also help. Writing essays can be a challenge but practice makes perfection.
Education
2019, Doctor of Philosophy(PhD), The University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom.2014, Master degrees of Law, China University of Political Science and Law, Beijing, China.
Experience / Qualifications
2020-2023 Teacher at Waseda University2021 CELTA Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, Cambridge English.
Since 2022 Certified Mediator, Singapore International Mediation Institute
In this class, I will provide a tutorial session to help you prepare for your exams, case studies, group project, and essay in law school.
I specialise in most private law modules/courses, including contract, tort, company, trust and equity, and international law.
Please contact me first to arrange a lesson on the subject and send me the specific materials/problem questions before coming to the class, at least one day before. In the class, we will work on the questions or the drafts you have.
Join the class if you would like to have your essay/academic assignment reviewed!
Provide feedback, editing and proofreading services if required.
Prior to each class, please have your draft ready and sent to me one day before the class. During the class, I will explain the feedback I attached and answer any questions you have. The overall class time includes the time I spend preparing the feedback and the time we meet up online/in person.
Please also note that you are the author of your work, and my role is not to write an assignment on your behalf.
The best way to improve academic writing in English is definitely to keep practising and revising. It is a really arduous procedure but trust me, it will be worth your time in the end!
I offer proofreading services to both professionals and students. I am a certified linguist with CIOL (Chartered Institute of Linguists) of UK. I can proofread text written in business, academic and general context. Please feel free to get in touch!

I have 7 years of teacher's experience.

Emiko
Private Japanese Lesson ― Conversation, Reading Comprehension, Writing, Academic JapaneseHello,
My name is Emi, and I’m a Japanese language tutor based in Tokyo. While working in an office, I also teach Japanese. I majored in economics at university and later spent over 20 years working in back-office roles at housing manufacturers, consulting firms, and nonprofit organizations. In 2005, I entered an art university, completed a master’s program in art studies while working, and am now writing my doctoral dissertation. I also work as a part-time lecturer, supporting students in their studies and guiding them in essay writing.
About My Lessons
The main goal of my lessons is to help you communicate smoothly and effectively with Japanese speakers. To achieve this, we focus on:
• Expressing your thoughts clearly (speaking/writing)
• Understanding what others are saying or writing (listening/reading)
Customized Lessons
I tailor each lesson to suit your goals, level, and interests. In our first lesson, I’ll ask you about your objectives and specific needs, so we can design a program just for you.
Lessons are conducted primarily in Japanese, but I can assist in English if needed. I also have a basic understanding of Spanish, so feel free to relax and enjoy the lessons!
Examples of Lessons I Offer
• Practical conversation practice using natural Japanese (without textbooks)
• Practice with materials like GENKI etc.
• Reading news articles or short stories written in Japanese together
Specialized Japanese Lessons
• Japanese for the Workplace: Writing emails, communicating with colleagues and supervisors, and understanding Japanese business culture
• Academic Japanese: Reading academic texts, writing reports and theses, and using language suitable for scholarly discussions (especially in fields such as art, culture, literature, society, and philosophy)
My Approach to Japanese Learning
My own experience of learning English and Spanish has helped me understand the depth of Japanese expressions and culture. Japanese reflects unique cultural values and ways of thinking, which often makes it difficult to translate directly. By learning about the cultural and contextual background of Japanese expressions, you’ll not only improve your skills but also use the language more naturally and effectively.
That’s why in my lessons, I aim to share not only the language itself but also the cultural nuances behind it. I believe this approach can make your communication in Japanese more enjoyable and meaningful.
Thank you for reading.
I’m here to support your Japanese learning journey and to help you explore the language and culture with confidence and joy. If you’re interested in my lessons, feel free to get in touch!
