Hello! I am a multilingual professional with 20 years of experience as a french teacher, freelance interpreter and guide. I have built a diverse career connecting people through language culture and experiences. Since moving to Japan i have taught at prestigious institutions such as TC, Ashiya Yamate Shogakko, Takatski Culture Center and Hanazona International School, focusing on language acquisition and cross culture exchange. In addition to teaching, I have worked as a freelance interpreter and translator, supporting international forums. My expertise in English, French and Japanese has allowed me to bridge linguistic and cultural gaps effectively. From 2006 to 2018 and again since 2023 i have guided visitors through japan cultural treasures including Kyoto, Nara, Osaka and Kobe. My personalized tours highlights are Japanese history traditions and natural beauty, creating meaningful experiences for travelers from around the world. I am passionate about fostering connections, sharing knowledge and celebrating the richness of language and culture. Welcome to Japan!
