Language Educator & Content Creator
Hi y'all, I'm Holly, a Tennessee native living in Kanazawa, Japan. Living in Japan and experiencing Japanese culture firsthand was a lifelong dream of mine, so when I was offered a teaching position here, I left my family and friends behind to set out on a brand new adventure. If you are interested in traveling to Japan, studying the Japanese language, learning how to cook Japanese food, anime & manga, and what it's like to live and work in Japan, then welcome to the family! Be sure to check out my videos and subscribe to my YouTube channel or find a language course that fits your needs by clicking the Learn tab at the top of the page.
Thanks, and welcome!
Student Testimonials
"I might not be the best student, but Holly-sensei is the best foreign language teacher I have ever had. In high school, I took German for 2 semesters. In college, I took 2 semesters of Spanish. I have also tried (unsuccessfully) to teach myself Spanish, Russian, Japanese, French, and Italian (using a little green bird). All that is to say, I haven’t have much success in learning foreign languages- until now.
I have decided that Japanese might be harder, but it is so much more satisfying and fun when you have a teacher who knows what they are doing and can help you find even more productive ways to study. Holly-sensei’s lessons flow well, and when I get stuck in my head for words, or even when I am having trouble finding the way to word a question, she is there to help me and pull me back into the lesson. I am already signed up for another semester with her, and I am super excited to learn more through her!"
