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.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! I have studied Japanese actively for a total of about 5 years but started over 5 years ago (in 2006). I took Japanese courses during all semesters as an undergrad student, with my junior year at an intensive study abroad program in Kyoto. I also recently participated in the 10-month program at the Inter-University Center for Japanese Language Studies in Yokohama, the only program in the world that focuses exclusively on advanced Japanese language training, from fall 2012 to summer 2013. I also passed the JLPT N1 Exam offered this past December 2013.

My policy is to always find out what my tutees' needs are, so I often will ask questions to determine what s/he wants to get out of our lessons together and how I can best provide it. One thing that I bring to the table that native Japanese speakers may not is experience in struggling with the language. So I know, for instance, some of the grammar patterns Japanese learners find difficult because I mostly likely was in the same boat at one point or another. I also try to make it fun, again, according to need but, rest assured, I am very serious about getting the points across and making sure there is full comprehension on your part!
I have been tutoring Japanese at the beginning and intermediate level for nearly 5 months now and thoroughly enjoy it. In the past, I designed a 5-week introductory course to the Japanese language for a summer college prep program and instructed high sc ... read more

Native English/Japanese Speaker looking for learners!

I like to keep things informal, people want to learn a language in order to speak and communicate rather than learn cold informal grammatical points. I know learning grammar is an essential building block to the language learning process, but know that verbal communication along with open discussion is a must in any learning environment.
I have had a period of 7+ years studying and living in a native Japanese-speaking environment. I have learned a variety of dialects and have also worked as an interpreter in a Japanese town hall office. I also have ESL (English as a second language) teaching experience working with everyone ranging from youth to adults teaching them English in both a casual and classroom style throughout my time in Japan.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! Native Japanese Speaker Skilled on learning languages and tutoring the others

I have created a special but easy method to learn and teach Chinese and Japanese speaking languages. I have two years experience in teaching students in Tokyo, and proven to be very effective and efficient. I helped to student to master the complicated Chinese tone in just one lesson of 45 minutes. I helped to student to master the Japanese pronunciation system in two lessons. Language learning should not be a hard process, just image not matter who he/she is, he/she can speak his/her mother language well. I myself learned a second language and mastered it just in 14 months. I speak Chinese, English and Japanese. As a master of sciences, I was a fun of math; I can help the student out of learning it.

Japanese tutoring

I am a native Japanese speaker and have experience in teaching Japanese to students from several countries. I have bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Economics from the U.S. and Japan, and I used to work in the IT field in Japan and Malaysia. I grew up in Tokyo, and I have worked in Japanese companies before, so I am familiar with Japanese culture and work environment. I also have worked in call centers in Japan, so I am an expert in talking to customers. I'm interested in meeting new people and sharing our cultures with each other. I am often described as a friendly and patient person. If you are interested in learning Japanese with me, please let me know what day and time you would like to have the lesson. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. I am available for in-person lessons and on Skype.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! I currently attend college and am majoring in Japanese Studies. I have completed my third year of Japanese language classes, and will do my best to assist in any way I possibly can while also gaining teaching experience.

As a college student, I have had my fair share of studying and applying various skills to succeed. I would like to share my tips and knowledge with those who are difficulties. Also, as a Japanese Studies major I would like to gain experience with teaching children the basics of Japanese and English. Not only do I love to help those around me, but the experience gained here will help to further skills needed for my future career.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

More About This Tutor...

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, I was a tutor of Reading, French and Japanese throughout my years of high school and college, so I have experience in those subjects as well.
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 w ... read more

In both my tutoring and teaching, I firmly believe in change. If I walk into a low energy classroom of students slouching in desks, the first thing I do is ask them to stand up. If I am tutoring a student who struggles with vocabulary, he and I will work to find a completely new way to study. In accordance with this concept of change, I also concentrate on adapting myself to the mood and personality of my student or students. While my natural inclination is still to prepare and overprepare for any teaching assignment, six years in the classroom have taught me that I must be willing to throw out the lesson plan and change if the student is not receptive. Ultimately, my goal is to motivate students and provide them with a variety of tools to help them succeed.
I have extensive experience teaching language-based skills to both native and non-native English speakers. My first ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching all age ranges, from 6 to 96. Foreign Languages are a challenge for the uninitiated, and I believe generating an interest in embracing the challenge is a key component in teaching. There is a great need for learning foreign languages in the global world of today, and the best way to merge seamlessly is to learn early and/or learn often. I believe the only foolish question is the one not asked. I encourage all students to ask immediately if there is confusion or misunderstanding and aim to answer that need in an easy-to-understand manner. I believe a language course should consist of the students speaking just as much as the teacher.
Having studied language from an early age, I discovered I had an inherent ability to process foreign tongues. I have earned a Bachelor of Arts in French and French Linguistics and have studied it for over seventeen years. My trips to ... read more

I am a recent graduate of Oberlin College, a school known for producing "lifelong learners". As a Neuroscience major, I studied many areas of science, including biology and chemistry, but am also proficient in English and Art.

I am a patient and creative teacher. I tailor my approach to the individual personality and learning style of the student. I enjoy working with children and am determined to help them bloom, whatever the subject matter. I am personally a lifelong learner, and my ultimate goal is to share the experience of academic discovery in a structured and useful way.
