Hi! I am Taisuke 

I am a Japanese language teacher at Fluent City in New York. My students want to know more about Japanese culture, but the class room time is so limited that it is difficult to incorporate many cultural aspects in the language teaching.  In this blog, I'm attempting to combine unique Japanese culture and language education.  I hope you enjoy. 

​

I was born and raised in Japan, living in the States since 1989.

​

Book me for privater lessons at Fluent City.
