    I hold a degree in Law and during my student days, I worked part-time at a tutoring center. I have confidence in my Japanese language skills as I used to teach advanced Japanese to high school students. Additionally, I have been attending an English language school in Singapore for a year, so I am proficient in basic English as well. I also have experience as an online Japanese tutor and can leverage this experience to conduct online Japanese lessons. After graduating from university, I gained extensive experience in administrative roles where I honed my skills in Excel, Word, and data entry. Therefore, I can efficiently handle tasks such as translation work and data entry. I have also worked in customer service alongside my other responsibilities, which has strengthened my ability to communicate clearly in Japanese. Currently, I am a student in the mornings, but I have my afternoons free for freelance work, allowing me to promptly deliver on assigned tasks. ⭐︎Teach Japanese ⭐︎Translate between English and Japanese
