My Summary
About Me
Hi, I am a 42-year-old Japanese woman, married to my wonderful husband of 20 years, and the mother of two children aged 16 and 18. I have worked as an assistant teacher at a Japanese nursery school in Ealing and as a nanny for two British families.
Through both my professional and personal experiences, I have developed a deep understanding of learning difficulties and neurodiversity. My eldest child is on the autism spectrum, and my husband has ADHD and dyslexia, which has given me valuable insight into the importance of patience, empathy, and tailored support.
In my personal life, I enjoy spending time with my family, caring for our pets, cooking, yoga, meditation and gardening. I’m available to work one day a week on a regular basis, on any weekday between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. I am able to start immediately.
My Experience
I have experience working with pupils with learning difficulties at a state primary school in New Zealand as a volunteer. I have also worked as an assistant at a Japanese nursery school in Ealing and as a nanny for two British families. In addition, I previously worked as an online Japanese tutor.
