Hi! My name is Mika and currently, I am a university student living in Japan!

For a brief background about myself, I was born in Japan but lived in the United States for 17 years. I decided to continue my higher education in Japan after high school to learn more about my own culture. While I lived in the US, I spoke Japanese at home and also went to a Japanese school (weekends, then switched to online later on to fit my schedule), during the weekdays I went to regular school.

During high school, I was involved in many extracurricular activities allowing me to see a little bit of everything that I was curious about! To list the major ones that I was involved in were: Cross Country, Track and Field, Diving, Cheer (competitive), National Honors Society, Chemistry Club, French Club, Diversity Club, Environmental Club, Robotics, Jazz Band, and the list goes on! I had enjoyed being part of all the clubs I was in and would love to talk with you guys about anything that you are interested in! I love learning new things, and seeing what other people's passions are! 

In the past, I have worked as a tumbling/cheer instructor teaching young children how to do certain things in cheer or new skills in gymnastics! I have enjoyed working with all of the students there, and loved seeing their bright faces! Hopefully, I will be able to put those bright smiles on your face as well!

For those of you interested in test prep, I would love to help you and give you pointers and tips on how I studied for some of the exams I have taken in the past. It would be my pleasure to also help you with pronunciation. In the past, I have received a perfect score in speaking for both TOEFL and TOEIC. 

Current English Exams I have taken in the past（過去で受けた試験など資格）:

• TOEFL:106 
• TOEIC: 985
• TOEIC S&W: 390 
• Eiken（英検）: Grade 1（一級）
• Multilingual Proficiency in the State of Indiana (Japanese and English)（インディアナ州でのマルチリンガル資格：英語と日本語）

I am always striving to do my best in order to help you with any problems you might have and will try to find the perfect ways to help you solve any problems! If you have any questions please let me know, and I would love to help!

こんにちは！みかです！

私は日本生まれアメリカ育ちで現在日本の大学に通っている大学生です！

高校の間は色々と課外活動（陸上部、チア部、フレンチクラブ、エンバイアメントクラブ、ダイバーシティークラブ、ジャズバンド、化学クラブ、など）に参加していました。色々な物やことに興味を持っているのでぜひレッスンなどで沢山話しましょう！

過去には地元のチアのジムでバイトをしていたことがあり、そこでは子供たちに体操などチアの基礎などを教えていました。その時に教えている子供たちの素敵な笑顔を毎回みれることがとても好きでした！この英会話のレッスンでも同じように皆さんの笑顔がみれるといいなと思っています！

もしテスト対策などをしたいと思う人がいたら是非一緒にテスト対策など勉強を一緒にやりましょう！私は過去に英検、TOEIC、TOEFLなど色々なテストなどを受けたことがあるのでもしよかったらその時私が使った勉強法なども教えたいと思ってます。特にTOEFLやTOEICではスピーキングで満点を取ったことがあり、友達にもスピーキングのテスト対策など練習をやったこともあります。

もし少しでも興味がある方がいたら一回でもお話をしましょう！
