“Hello there! My name’s Terra. I’m from Toronto, Canada. I graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in English Literature and Political Science, and worked as an editor before becoming an English teacher. I love talking about books, grammar, languages, and politics!

My main hobbies are reading, writing, and cosplay. I love stories, and bringing my favourite characters to life.

It’s a little embarrassing to admit, but I fell in love with Japan through manga, which exposed me to charming yet normal aspects of life here — such as women giving men chocolate on Valentine’s (Valentine’s gifts are given to both men and women in Canada!) and eating mandarin oranges at the kotatsu. Although I came to Japan because of manga and anime, I ended up staying for 3 years for the people. (And the food, haha!)

The NEW Eikaiwa Exchange Diary Course is exciting because it allows students and teachers to really get to know one another. I look forward to having many conversations with you!”
