Japanese is one of my top subjects! Certified Native Japanese Teacher

I am native Japanese who completed a Japanese language teaching for foreigners course in Japan and have more than 10 years teaching experience in South Korea and Philippines as well as in United States. I taught at Accenture, Hundai, LG, IBM and for IT engineers. I graduated from Japanese and Korean universities and got a Master degree at Yonsei University in sociology. Since I studied mainly comparative sociology between Japan and other Asian countries, I also studied at the University in the Philippines Diliman as a research fellow. I teach Japanese from basic level to advanced level as well as Japanese history and culture.

My teaching style is patience, immersion and respect. If there is one important thing I have learned from working with children, it is that though they are young, they are still people, so they are aware when they are being patronized for their age. Therefore, I make sure to treat them with respect. As far as foreign language teaching is concerned, I stress the difference between "decoding" and "comprehension". I want my students to be able to read in the foreign language and completely understand, rather than just read the letters and sound out the word.
As a soon-to-be graduate of Oberlin College, I understand the importance of education. I am an East Asian Studies major and Creative Writing minor, so I have extensive experience in writing analytic papers about Japanese culture and original stories. I'd be willing to provide some writing samples upon request. In addition ... read more

My personal teaching philosophy is that there is no teaching without learning. Most classroom studies are at least partly removed from their intended application, for reasons of assuring comprehensive competency and because of the educational structure, i.e. attending school comes in advance of and separately from applying one’s knowledge. However, learning a language,for example and especially while living in it has both a need for constant practice and occasion for immediate application. The broader linguistic community has thusly prioritized practical teaching methods, of which I wish to avail myself.
I am a recent Bachelor of Arts graduate with a double major in Philosophy and Political Science from Fairleigh Dickinson University in Florham Park, NJ. During the latter part of my college experience, I began teaching in K-12 classrooms. Quickly and suddenly, I realized that I ... read more

I believe that asking questions is the best way to learn. I encourage all my students to really think about why something is the way it is and not to be afraid of asking questions. I find that having an open line of communication really helps to foster a nurturing atmosphere.
I was a teaching assistant for two years at a college level. I had over 160 students and loved interacting with them all. I have two bachelor's degrees from the University of Miami, one in Economics and one in Anthropology.
