More About This Tutor...

I am native Japanese. I always enjoyed school at all levels and hope to bring that joy of learning to all students. I earned a B.S. degree and a Master’s in Psychology. I am presently working on my Ph.D. in psychology. My language arts tutoring is completely personalized and designed to meet the student’s specific needs. Whenever possible, I use the student’s own curriculum to maximize the efficiency of the student’s learning. Beyond the immediate objective of helping the student with the material that’s unclear, I use those challenges to identify and fill in the foundational understanding that is missing and impeding the student’s understanding and confidence. I have worked at a Japanese Antique Gallery and translated old Japanese sentences to English; I have more than 3 years of experience in teaching Japanese. I love teaching Japanese and am very patient and flexible. I hope st ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Hello everyone! My name is Miku. I was born in Hawaii and raised in Japan. I graduated from Dokkyo university in Saitama, Japan, and majored in hospitality and tourism. I moved to Hawaii two years ago and currently work for American Airlines as a flight attendant. I can help you with conversation, grammar, and business Japanese.

Learning is Always New

I've taught creative writing to Japanese university students in English only (songs, stories and poetry) for two years, and ESL to all ages in Japanese society for 22 years. In America, I taught freshman public speaking, composition, and literature at the university level. My students have gone on to top-level universities, and placed first in prefectural level speech competitions.
I teach how to learn, and encourage a love of learning, as well as teaching the subject. I base all my lessons on the value they allow the student to impart to society, both economically and ethically. I encourage students to welcome responsibility and empower themselves as learners.

Positive & helping students find what makes them love music

Hi! I'm Brian and my artist name is Lovejack! Thanks for checking out my page. I mostly teach pop/contemporary voice, songwriting, music production AND violin, viola, cello. I've got a long history with my band Streetlight Cadence, most notably I'm an Emmy-nominated Producer for our TV show Will Play For Food. We've toured everywhere, charted albums on Billboard and shared the stage with Nick Jonas, Pentatonix, Jason Mraz, Kenny Loggins and more! I've been teaching for about 10 years now and enjoy always having a small group of students alongside my musical activities. I've done so much outside of classical that I've got a really good sense of the modern music industry and how to help students prepare for their musical journey and give them reasons to love it AND keep going after lessons or school is done! You can check me out on Insta, YouTube and TikTok at lovejack!

The best successes come after their greatest disappointments

I have experience with pre k to 8th grade tutoring in Math and English tutoring to help students prepare for Iolani and Punahou entrance exams through Dr. Takahashi Juku. I have also worked extensively with children from Japan who struggle with English. I can explain English words and grammar in Japanese and well as read and write Japanese .
I like to make my tutoring sessions productive by encouraging students to work hard to complete the taste in order to receive a reward in the form of a game or something they enjoy doing. I am very thorough in correcting assignments and make sure they fully understand the concept they are working on. I am very helpful in stimulating critical thinking for creative writing assignments.

A Little Bit About Me...

Depending on students' need. Academic or Business oriented. Conversational or much more writing & reading focused.
Taught both English and Japanese as a second language more that 10 years in Japan and in Hawaii. My teaching philosophy is that learning languages as a second language is not only gaining knowledge of the language but also performing that is the most important and effective. For example, even though one reads a manual how to use machine, he/she does not operate without practicing. On the other hand, learning another language means learning another culture. Without teaching culture, social norm, and perspectives that people who speak the language usually share, students will have difficulties in applying their knowledge for real daily communication in the target language. Learning another language means that students need all skills, such as reading, writing, speaking ... read more

My teaching style is based on an inquiry-based learning method. I do not give students answers. I ask them the right questions to get them to figure out the answer themselves. I also encourage the student to ask the right questions themselves as well. I am very patient and encouraging. I am also very friendly and like to keep a fun, warm personality while teaching or tutoring. I also consider myself to be a lifetime learner. I believe that when I have enthusiasm for learning it is contagious and the student will also have the desire to learn.
I am currently finishing my first year in my graduate program, MEdT Program (Masters in Education Teaching). I have so far spent 12hrs a week in the classroom for the past year. I have taught several solo lessons a week while at Campbell High School and Ilima Intermediate. I am efficient in one-on-one teaching situations students who need ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have earned BA degree in Teaching English as a Second Language. Throughout my course of study, I studied linguistics and effective teaching methods for learning second language. In addition, my practical experience at McKinley Adult Community School gave me some experience in teaching. I created lesson plans and activities for Pre-literacy class students,and I learned how to conduct lessons for students in beginning level classes.
I like to teach language because I was also a English leaner before. I can understand the feeling and difficulty that students might have since I have the experience of learning other language. I am patient and also passionate. My goal is to provide fun and effective lessons to students. I will try my best to create or adapt materials for students.

Teaching is as much a process as learning. It can be carried out most effectively only when it's driven by self-motivation. I'm in teaching because I want to be. It brings me joy... gets me excited in the morning going to work. Such zest in easily reflected in the way I teach. My students feel my enthusiasm; they witness my taking a personal interest in their learning. In a dynamic cycle of influence, we fuel each other in our educational mission... be it thorny tests, understanding of concepts, or simply, having fun. More important than anything else, my ears, and heart are always open to them... they teach me how to teach.
An ideal juxtaposition of East meets West is vested within me, and lives through the knowledge of cultural ethnology, protocols, and languages of inter-continental roots. I am experienced teaching multiple subjects kindergarten, primary, secondary, tertiary, in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

When I meet with a new client I create a plan by finding out where they are having trouble with starting with the basics. I make sure each client is prepared with all the basic tools to succeed before moving on to a new section. It is important to have to basics mastered to avoid having problems in the future. I like to teach by example. I do this by creating a problem, showing the steps, and then changing the numbers or variables. This way the the student can remember the process rather than just the answer. I always give positive reinforcement for their hard work. I believe creating challenges and praising clients for their accomplishments helps them retain the material.
As a graduate from the University of Hawaii with a BA in Economics I have a solid understanding of mathematical concepts from the courses I have taken while pursuing my degree. I speak both English and Japanese f ... read more
