In this episode, I’ll share the story of how I became a Japanese teacher — and it all started with... English!
From scuba diving in Mexico to discovering the world of online lessons, this episode is filled with a few surprises.　You'll also learn how to use the Japanese word “きっかけ” (kikkake), which means “trigger” or “reason” for something.　What was your kikkake for learning Japanese?
