Graduated from UC Berkeley in Biochem/Biophysics major and Data Science minor. I'm currently doing my PhD in Stem Cell Biology at Cambridge University.

I took conversational Japanese lessons with Hiromitsu in preparation for N3 exam and I can highly recommend him as a tutor! Hiromitsu always made sure to keep the conversation flowing, helping me practice talking about a variety of topics in Japanese and introducing useful vocabulary. He made sure to explain cultural and contextual nuances as well as tricky grammar points. I enjoyed that we could spend most of the lesson talking in Japanese only which immensely helped my speaking confidence

Me and my daughter have been working with Hiro for around a year now and we are both taught by him. My daughter is neurodiverse and she is so comfortable with Hiromitsu and looks forward to her weekly lessons. Hiromitsu is calm and very patient. Our lessons are always adapted to work around my daughter’s capabilities on the day as this can vary greatly, he never puts any pressure on her. We’ve learnt lots about Japanese culture as well as speaking, writing, reading and hearing Japanese. We would both highly recommend Hiro if you are looking for a wonderful Japanese tutor!!!!

He is my son’s tutor, and he is always sincere, kind, and supportive. I am truly grateful that we had the opportunity to meet him.

Although he does not teach my son Japanese, I believe my son genuinely enjoys his lessons with him. Of course, academic learning is important, but I also hope my son will grow up to become a wonderful young man like him.

Hiro was most helpful to my son when he needed the boost of understanding and confidence as he joined honors science in delayed manner. Hiro was very patient to sit and help my son to understand the subject but also taught him the effective lab note taking which helped my son tremendously through the semester
I highly recommend Hiro for any kids who not only needs to understand the subject but also need gentle push on their shoulder to boost their confidence

Hiro is an amazing tutor and great at explaining a large range of topics to different learners.

During my time at Berkeley he was a great help in helping me solve and understand problems in my linear algebra and multivariable calculus courses. Not only did he help me visualize and conceptualize the problems so I can solve them on my own, but he came up with an unique approach that worked for me when studying new material outside of our sessions.

I would strongly recommend him for any learner as he is great at observing different learning styles and adapting the way he approaches the material.
