    • Takako

      Hello! My name is Takako. I am the school manager and in charge of school orientation. It is always a pleasure for me to encounter new people. I have always enjoyed studying English and working with children. This led me to obtain a certificate in Early Childhood English Education. I am still constantly searching for new teaching activities and children’s books.
      My goal is to help the children develop their personalities, treasure themselves, build confidence and show them that English is fun!
      Please come and see Smile Kids, I’m looking forward to meeting everybody.

    • Sachiko

      Greetings to everyone! My name is Sachiko.
      I am half Filipino-half Japanese. I grew up with my Grandparents in the
      Philippines. After graduating college at an international school in the
      Philippines, I decided to live here in Japan for good. 2 years ago I couldn’t
      speak Japanese very well and so I decided to learn Japanese.
      Although I am just starting to work here at Smile Kids, I know how the kids
      feel when their parents send them to our school, because I was once a child
      too. That is why I try my best to make the children feel at home and
      try to stand as a good example and be their guardian.

    • Hi my name is Elisa and I am the K3 teacher. I am very happy to have found a school like “Smile Kids International” where their goal is to make children feel like its their second home by providing a safe and fun learning environment. I am excited to be a part of this journey where I can learn and watch the children and myself grow.
