I have been teaching Japanese for over ten years. Many of my students enjoy my teaching style. I am very patient, yet I want students to learn the basics of Japanese quickly so that they can have success when they arrive in Japan. I incorporate fun games as well. Japanese is not the easiest language to learn. However, I have found mixing fun with seriousness has helped my students learn the language quickly. I am very dependable and flexible. I know my students are very busy with tight schedules. I try to work with my students so that we can change our schedules if something comes up. Overall, I am an upbeat and organized person. I enjoy preparing my students for the challenging Japanese language. I look forward to meeting you and offering you an opportunity to learn Japanese from a fun yet serious person. Konnichiwa.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have privately tutored students that recently arrived from Japan in English with a focus on conversation to enable them to quickly feel comfortable in a new country. As they attained conversation skills I changed my focus to education based teaching with a focus on understanding the classroom teacher and being able to participate in the classroom discussion. I have a degree in English but I have completed through Calculus 2 and have taken Physics and Chemistry courses so I spread the focus of the lessons through different disciplines with the goal of facilitating classroom learning.
I build a relationship of trust with the students and offer positive reinforcement and use humor to engage all of them. My initial goal is to engage the students then move on to teaching with the final goal being the understanding of the subject in a way that is deeper then just memorization. I want t ... read more

I prefer working with African American children. I believe they are usually the most neglected children in the public school systems. I try to work as a mentor and guide children through projects and activties, rather than work as their "guru". I believe all children are gifted they just need the direction and encouragement to steer them through their experiences. I use child centered approaches to teaching by using hands-on activities and project based lessons.
After graduating from DePauw University, my first teaching experience was at Rose Elementary Open School, which is a Detroit Public School. I was a building substitute. I worked there for one year until I found a regular postion at a public school academy in Inkster, MI. I was moved around in the system because they hired too many teachers. I found my permenant teaching position at Aisha Shule, an African-centered p ... read more

From my time with English Club, I found there is very little advantage for either party when the teacher is draconian. Giving the student little rewards, plenty of encouragement, and being patient work much better. I like to try to understand the student on a personal level, so I can make him or her comfortable. Does the student prefer an informal session or to work hard the entire time? Will jokes encourage or distract? Questions like these are key to creating the best learning environment.
For two years I was an ESL teacher in Japan with the company English Club. While there, I acquired unique experience in the field of education. Not only did I have to design and tailor each class to the student's abilities and age, but I had to come up with creative ways to relay the material given the constrains on communication. I also have tutoring experience with 826 Michigan in Ann Arbor, ... read more
