My comments on tutoring Japanese : I have taken classes in Japanese speech training in a technical college. After having MA, I taught the subjects as “Speech communication”, “Intercultural communication” and “Communication and manners at hospitality industries” at several universities and nursing colleges in Japan.

I am originally from Tokyo, Japan, and a native Japanese speaker. I have relocated from Japan to the United States and I am fluent in both Japanese and English. I specialize in teaching Japanese and intercultural communication. I have been a Japanese language teacher for foreign students since I was studying at a university in Japan. I was a private tutor for foreign students who aimed to enter colleges and universities in Japan for more than 10 years. I also have 7 years of experience working for Japan Airlines as a cabin attendant and went overseas in more than 30 countries, so I have abundant intercultural communication experiences with people worldwide. From those former experiences, I started to work as a service hospitality instructor for several hospitality industries such as airlines, restaurants, hotels, banks, hospitals and dental clinics, general trading companies ... read more

Fluent Japanese Tutor!

While I was living in Japan, I taught Japanese to non-Japanese speakers in both one-on-one situations and in groups. After arriving in the United States, I have continued to offer one-on-one and group lessons. I can especially relate to those that want to learn Japanese, since I struggled similarly as I learned English. The lessons that I taught ranged from 30 minutes to an hour, according to the preference of my students.
I focus on the four skills of a language when teaching - reading, writing, listening, and speaking. In addition to tapping into each of these areas when teaching, I also like to include cultural studies, since I am a firm believer that one can only become a master of a language if they have mastered that language's culture, as well. - Reading and Writing: I start teaching by focusing on romaji, which is Japanese spelled out using letters from the Roman alphabe ... read more

My comments on tutoring Japanese : While not fluent in Japanese, I have taken 3 years of high school level courses and am familiar with the expectations thereof. I have passed the kanji kentei through 8th kyuu and passed 9th with a perfect score.

I have tutored 1 student privately in Spanish for 2 years, and she went from failing her class to passing both the AP and IB exams with a 5 and a 6, respectively. I have also tutored small groups in Spanish for one semester ranging from high school introductory level to AP level. I have also tutored for one semester of ASL at the college level, and one semester of Japanese at the high school introductory level.
I aim for all tutoring to be done in the target language, but I recognize that this is unhelpful for many students. Nevertheless, I will start out only using the target language, but will switch to the students' preferred language upon request.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! Japan has always been close to my heart. I am a high beginner and can tutor with the basic hiragana, katakana and very basic kanji, as well as a bit of grammar and some vocabulary.

I believe that conversation is an essential part of language learning. After teaching some basic vocabulary and grammar, I like to encourage students to place their fear of making mistakes to the side and converse as much as they are able to in the target language. Depending on the age and experience of the student, I like to incorporate teaching materials such as books, worksheets, articles on the internet in the target language and listening exercises, as well as interpretation of song lyrics that the student might enjoy, describing art pieces in the target language and anything else that the student might find interesting. My style is pretty open and unrestricted. I am patient, kind and enjoy learning from my student as much as I enjoy tutoring them.
I am currently a student at the University of South Florida, seeking a Bachelor's degree in German Studies. I have some background ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching martial arts since high school. I studied Wing Chun Kung Fu at an early age and later became my Sifu's helper in and out of class. I like to base my teaching like martial arts, teach the information by showing how its done, then use examples of it directly involving the student, and later having them try to see if they caught on or if they may need more assistance. In other words, show the block technique, show how the block is used, have them try the block. I show the material in every detail and usage.
I have a strong background in science and math, giving me a passion for both subjects. I have always loved math, but when discovering a love for science, it seemed to be the perfect marriage for me to study chemistry. I earned a BS in Chemistry at USF and have also taught Chemistry to first year students my senior year giving me an edge on teaching. I ha ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for the reliability and order of involved in Mathematics. I have found that when broken down into a method that students can understand, math becomes much more manageable. If we interpret the nebulous vernacular of mathematics into simple English, most students will find it to be less difficult.
I attended the University of Florida where I earned a BS in Mathematics and took a heavy science course load to prepare me for further medical school prerequisites. I have established a solid understanding of the core sciences as well as an exemplary command of mathematics. In addition, I have had multiple experiences aiding foreign students improve English as their second language.
