Language goes beyond words and expressions. What began as a personal passion has evolved into a professional pursuit. Language is one of the most invaluable tools to have at your disposal, and in the current sociocultural environment, globalization is making intercultural understanding all the more vital. Hence why since 2010, I have been working as a freelance language tutor and translator.
I emphasize give-and-take interaction with my students. Namely, they are free to offer ideas for subsequent lesson topics. I do so in order to help maintain the students' engagement, as well as my own enthusiasm.

Japanese is one of my top subjects!

I have a very by-the-book kind of tutoring style, but my explanations are thorough enough for most people to understand in simple terms. For Japanese, I tutor through Japan Times' 'Genki' textbook set and the following intermediate Japanese textbook. For English for Japanese Speakers, I can retrofit my knowledge of Japanese grammar to explain important points in the English Language to help you sound more fluent.
I have studied and spoken Japanese for around 12 years, speaking at an intermediate level. I understand the intricate workings of the grammar and vocabulary and can thoroughly teach how to speak and understand from logically comprehending its inner mechanisms (I.E. thinking in Japanese) which will make speaking easier. It is easier than it sounds, and simple to understand. Since I speak at an intermediate level, I can help tutor elementary and intermediate Japanese with ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that being too serious about learning is not the only way to be successful. I would like to teach Japanese in fun and enjoying style.
I was raised in Japan till age of 9, so my first language is Japanese. After I came to the United States, I went to Japanese school to keep up my native Japanese skills. (The school I went, Asahi-Gakuen is targeted for students that may go back to Japan. They use same textbook as schools in Japan and almost same pase of teaching)

My comments on tutoring Japanese : 5 on AP Japanese in high school. Also speak Japanese at home.

I prefer one on one tutoring so I can adjust how I tutor to each students needs, but I have also done group tutoring before. All in all, I personally want to work in whatever environment will help the student learn most effectively.
Tutored many students during high school and I am currently a 1st year Chemical Engineering student at University of California, Berkeley. In high school, I tutored AP Chemistry, many levels of math, and many other science courses often. I also worked with younger students in middle school on many of the general subjects.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! Native Japanese

Conversational Japanese (formal to informal, some business)
I am native Japanese and being in USA since 1980. I have received most of all my educations including 2 yr college in Japan, and attended City College in here before I was employed at the Japanese bank in Los Angeles. I always worked in bi-lingual Japanese/English position at the several companies since then. I know how to use Keigo in proper way and able to introduce some Japanese cultures as well as popular slang; however, I do not have any training to be an educator. Therefore, I am suitable for intermediate to advanced students to gain experience in conversational Japanese.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! lived in various cities in Japan for 14 years and took advanced Japanese at UCLA so can handle various levels in all 4 skills

was trained in Community Language Learning (CLL) while I worked as an English teacher in Japan and like working with small groups. fortunately, classes at LBCC tend to be 20 students or less so that I have been able to use this method. Task or project-based learning is an outgrowth of CLL and another key component of my teaching style. Students learn more when they have/show a personal interest in the language they're taking.
Have been a language instructor since 1980 and have degrees in English (MA) and Foreign Language Education (Univ. of Texas at Austin) Have taught JPN 1 at Long Beach City College since Aug. 2013 and was trained to teach Elem. Japanese at UT Austin in 1991. Also taught Japanese for LBCC Upward Bound for 5 summers. I learned how to read and write Japanese as an undergraduate at the University of California and improved my listening and speaking skills whi ... read more

Japanese is one of my top subjects! I have studied Japanese since high school and lived in Japan for 1 1/2 years total. My spoken Japanese is colloquial and fluent, and I am also very familiar with formal written and spoken Japanese. I have a wide knowledge of many traditional Japanese arts and Japanese culture as well.

I am very creative and hands on! Route memorization does not work for everybody and I believe in teaching flexibility.
Although I am not a certified teacher of Japanese, I know what it is like to be a student of it. I first went to Japan at the beginning of high school with the American Field Service (AFS). I had never studied Japanese before and I lived in a small town, lived with a family that spoke no English, and attended a Japanese high school for one year. Since my Japanese was initially learned entirely from immersion, I have a very natural intonation and colloquial speaking pattern--something difficult to acquire in a classroom. I have since studied Japanese grammar and Kanji formerly for almost 5 years. I returned to Japan in 2009 to spend a semester at the International Christian University in Tokyo as an exchange student. As the university is bilingual, I completed half ... read more
