About Kazuya Shirahama

My name is Kazuya Shirahama, and I am a teaching assistant in Japanese. I am a person who is passionate about teaching and supporting people. I have some teaching experience and have worked as a teaching assistant in Japanese at a university in Canada. I also have worked as an administrative staff at several universities in Japan.

I like listening to music, reading books, and watching movies. I also like to go for a walk.

Washington and Lee University is a top-ranked liberal arts university, and through taking Japanese courses, students could develop advanced communication skills and gear up the challenges such as study abroad. I wanted to support the students by drawing on my experience, and that is why I applied for the teaching assistant position. I would like to make more efforts and support the students by refining my skills.
