Hi! My name is Nobuko. I am a credentialed elementary school teacher and have my Master's. I have taught 5th grade in Newport Mesa Unified, 3rd grade in Irvine Unified, and 3rd grade at an international school in South Korea. I specialize in Reading and Math instruction at the elementary level and work with students learning English as a second language. I have tutored elementary, middle, and high school students, as well as adults. I am an enthusiastic, fun and responsible person and look forward to hearing how I can help.

I am so grateful to have found such an incredible tutor for my son on Care.com. Nobuko has been nothing short of amazing in helping him with history, reading, English, and writing. As a former teacher, her knowledge and experience really shine through in her teaching style. She's incredibly patient, always taking the time to explain concepts clearly and at a pace that works for him. What stands out the most is how well Nobuko connects with my son. He looks forward to his sessions with her, which speaks volumes about her ability to engage and encourage him. She's not only kind and understanding but also makes learning enjoyable. It's clear that she truly cares about his progress, and it’s been a pleasure working with her. I highly recommend Nobuko to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and compassionate tutor!
