Heather Marx

teacher

As a dedicated mother, wife, and passionate educator living abroad in Japan, I have cultivated a rich and fulfilling life that blends my personal and professional journeys. Since 2016, I have been teaching students from kindergarten through junior high, cherishing the moments when I see that illuminating “light bulb” moment in my students' eyes. I thrive on the fresh perspectives that come with living in a new culture, and I embrace a holistic and gentle approach to teaching while maintaining high expectations for my students. I believe that every child is a unique puzzle, and I take great joy in discovering the connections and motivations that inspire them to learn and grow. Originally from Reno, I’m excited to expand my teaching horizons through online channels, where I can share my passion for education with even more learners. My commitment to fostering a nurturing and engaging environment continues to shape the way I approach teaching, and I look forward to this new chapter in my career.
