Onur Konar
Born in 1994 in Çanakkale, Onur Konar has been giving basic and advanced Japanese private lessons at the Institute of Business Administration since 2021. His Japanese adventure started in 2012 when he decided to study Japanese Language Teaching at Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University in his last year of high school. Konar improved his Japanese in a short time by taking advanced Japanese lessons. In this way, he was awarded the N2 (Business Level) certificate in the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) Exam in 2017. With this certificate, he applied to Osaka - Kansai University and received a one-year education in Japanese Language and Culture. He gained teaching experience by giving English lessons at Kansai University, where he studied. Having gained the trust of his teachers, Konar worked as a presenter and translator at the 2019 Osaka G20 summit. In September 2019, Konar returned to Turkey, graduated from university, and started working as a Japanese Translator at Mitsubishi Electric. After one year of Mitsubishi adventure, Konar decided that he wanted to continue his life as a teacher and said about teaching: "I have encountered many Turkish and foreign teachers in my education life, I observed the good aspects of all of them and developed my teaching skills with the Japanese understanding of "Kaizen." My students are precious to me."
