Hajimemashite.

My name is Hidaka Mitsuko, and I live in Miyazaki in Kyushu, Japan. Miyazaki is known as a place where typhoons often strike, but it is also a very warm place with delicious food. The town's streets are lined with many Phoenix trees (a southern species). The sea is beautiful, and surfers gather here in the summer. Some people settle down in Miyazaki for the surfing. Unfortunately however, I cannot swim....

From learning Japanese, my hope is that everyone can come to love Japan. I'm sure you'll feel nervous at first, but rest assured I will be even more nervous so please relax. I would like to help you enjoy studying, by matching everyone's pace and goals.

I'm looking forward to seeing you in our online Japanese classroom. Yoroshiku onegai-shimasu!
