About

I’m Rebecca Jane Johnson, a writer, educator, and language enthusiast with a passion for cross-cultural communication. I earned a Master of Arts in East Asian Languages and Cultures from Columbia University and a BA in Literary Studies and Creative Writing from Beloit College. Over the years, I’ve written book reviews, helped clients shape their stories, and taught English and composition to students around the world.

In San Diego, I blend research, creativity, and practical communication—whether I’m guiding a classroom through critical thinking, crafting content for clients, or leading wellness and mindfulness programs through yoga. I’m always looking for opportunities to connect ideas, elevate writing, and support learners on their journeys.
