My instructional and curriculum design work is shaped by long-term classroom practice rather than theory alone. By designing for real learners while navigating institutional constraints, limited time, and mixed ability levels, I have made clarity, sequencing, and transfer central to my approach.
I place particular emphasis on instructional scaffolding that moves learners from controlled input to meaningful output. Rather than isolating skills or concepts, I design systems and materials that make underlying structures explicit and usable, especially in language learning and technical training contexts where form and meaning must align.
Having worked extensively in Japanese public school environments, I am especially attentive to how cultural expectations, learner confidence, and linguistic transfer affect instructional success. My goal is to create learning experiences that are not only accurate and well structured, but also practical for real classrooms and authentic audiences.
