About Auntie Mitz

About Mitz
Aloha! How are you? My name is Mitsue (mee TSU ay). I am a facilitator of English! Where do you want to got with your English journey?

What do you want to be ?

HOW do you want to be with your English learning? That is what I love findng out about my students.


What do I love best about myself? I love smiling. I love children and I love making new friends. I’m a bilingual Japanese -English speaker, raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. I love singing and playing the ukulele.

I moved to Japan in 1992, shortly after graduating from a cozy college,  as and English major and Japanese minor. I have been living in Japan with my family (husband and 2 sons) for 30 years now.

 
I love Japan and I love my Japanese friends, and my dream is to help my students feel comfortable and learn to love the side effects of knowing English well — which is to become open to a whole new world of people of lives, of opinions and of lifestyles. 

This is me, Auntie Mitz!
I love music, singing and playing my ukulele!
Everyone seems to like my smile. I do too!
Won’t you stick around
and find your new YOU with me??!
