Nao Iwasaki
Welcome! Thank you for visiting my website. My name is Nao Iwasaki, and I hope this website can give you some insights on me as a language teacher.
About me
I was born and raised in Japan but spent few years in Hawaii to earn a bachelor's degree in second language studies. I see myself as a language teacher because I truly believe in the power of education, and how language can widen one's perspectives.
"Education is a natural process carried out by the human individual, and is acquired not by listening to words, but by experiences in the environment."
Maria Montessori
